Let Him Do His Job

Doc Martin is one of the most competent physicians ever portrayed in film. He is also on the spectrum and incredibly abrasive. So even people whose lives he has saved can't speak well of him. He is subjected to a ridiculous test by a questionable physician who sends in people with contrived symptoms. Secondly, we have the appearance of Mark Mylow, the former police officer before PC Penhale. He is a windbag who left his job to become a plumber in Poland. He decides to take over, dismissing everything Penhale has accomplished (which is very little, but then). There's more but I found this episode superb.
