Review of Remember Me

Doc Martin: Remember Me (2011)
Season 5, Episode 5
8/10
Entertaining but Quite a Stretch
4 March 2018
This series is frequently outrageous, so when odd things occur, it's not surprising. Those awful teenaged girls are always around to make some caustic comment at the wort times. Do they ever do anything but walk around town. At issue here are two principle things, perhaps three. First of all, Joe (the absolute idiot police officer) is visited by his ex-wife, but he is so elated, he ignores the fact that she doesn't know they were divorced three years earlier. She doesn't even remember a man she was engaged to. Then we have Burt realizing that the restaurant is in deep trouble. He hides this from son Al who is working for Aunt Ruth now, nearly full time. Where will he get the money to stay afloat? Martin is being about as difficult as it is possible when it relates to Louisa and the baby. We also are made privy to her mother's motivations. I fear some hard times ahead, especially for Burt. Some of this is really hard to swallow, especially the amnesia thing, but it is still quite captivating.
