Description
Young doctor Barry Laverty is looking forward to his first Christmas in the cozy village of Ballybucklebo, but his joy is dampened by his girlfriend Patricia, who has no intention of coming for the holidays. However, Barry cannot dwell too much on his romantic troubles – he and his older colleague Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly have plenty of work with common illnesses and urgent cases requiring their full attention. Moreover, a big problem arises. A new doctor opens a practice nearby, deceitfully luring patients away, and his quackery begins to threaten the health of trusting villagers. Can three general practitioners make a living in this area? Barry starts to doubt it. Yet even in the unpleasant winter season, carefree moments occur, and the doctors from Ballybucklebo manage to find time amidst the hustle and bustle of Christmas gatherings and festivities to provide gifts for the children of a single mother. Although snow rarely falls here and miracles do not happen on a conveyor belt, that does not mean Christmas must necessarily be in the mud, and that people should stop hoping and believing... Whether you are old friends or meeting both doctors and their loved ones for the first time today, welcome to a world of humor, friendship, and love!
