50 years since the first broadcasts of this classic Scottish drama, we join the newly graduated Dr Finlay as he embarks on his medical career working for Dr Cameron in his Tannochbrae practice. In this special Christmas episode, the ambitious and headstrong young Doctor Finlay, played by the dapper Bill Simpson, goes head-to-head with his more mature colleagues Drs Cameron and Snoddy as they cast their stethoscopes aside and don a more theatric mantle in preparation for a Christmas party at the children's ward. But despite the Doctors' best efforts the real star of the show emerges from the side lines. Show less
