It's back!

So very glad to see this warm and wonderful show is back for a third series.

It was such a long wait between series 1 and 2, that I was afraid it had been losing momentum. But it must be garnering viewers, who are patient.

It's also nice to see that it has "graduated" to the full 60 minute BBC format as a weekly evening show--as it began as one of the Monday through Friday afternoon programs, in the five-episode format, but usually are about 50 minutes.

Things seem to be looking up for the good doctor!

Well it's interesting you ask.

I'm a bit confused by a list I saw.

It said there would be 3 episodes of 60 minutes each airing on BBC Wales.

But 5 episodes of 45 minutes each airing on BBC Daytime. Not sure though if that's how it ended up. I'm only coming up with BBC Wales, 60 minutes, on the iplayer.

Maybe that original info was outdated?

Oh hope it's more than 3. Though this year's central storyline might not take more than 3 60-minute eps to resolve it. It's been pretty clear from the first scene that these brothers were bad news. It won't take long for that scam to play out.
