When Dr Nicky Somerville's life in the city fell apart, she moved to the small town of Bassett (population 5058 and growing). She thought the pace would be slower and things more simple. But she learned that life can be complex wherever you are. Mercy Peak is about Nicky (Sara Wiseman) and her fellow Bassett residents – ordinary people whose lives are full of romance, passions, beliefs and foibles. In Mercy Peak 2, Nicky decides to put aside thoughts of Kieran and enjoy an uncomplicated relationship with the good guy, Cliff. Which just goes to show how little she has learned. And when things become complicated, there is the small matter of a friend who is looking for a sperm donor, a new doctor who seems to be poaching on her turf and a tempting offer that is not what it seems. William, implicated the baby farming scandal, loses his good standing in the community. And yet, his fall from grace has some unexpected upsides. Like more golf, and true love. With William in temporary exile, Alistair has greatness thrust upon him. But the upside, is the hospital gets a new locum, the gorgeous Helen. It's just a shame that she and Nicky don't get on - and she and William seem to get on far too well. Louise gets unexpected news, but is determined to struggle on with her flagging marriage. Until the Bassett Festival of Romance turns everything on its head. When you're in love with a beautiful woman, it's hard. Ken can't believe his luck when Dana seems to want him. Todd can't believe it either. And then there's a rival Ken doesn't even know about. Also this season: Enid goes on trial for the murder of Arthur, romance blooms in Bassett, black pudding makes a comeback, and the local plumber is a convicted paedophile. Mercy Peak is about discovering that the world can be good or bad but that there is always hope and humour. Mercy Peak is now available at ReelTime Media Ltd.
