Sweet Medicine

Sweet Medicine

"Sweet Medicine" is an ITV television series from 2003 about a family doctor's surgery in the Peak District. The majority of filming took place in the historic market town of Wirksworth, which made the set for the fictional Derbyshire town of Stoneford.

The programme was intended as a continuation of the hit Peak Practice, but sadly became a flop and only ran for one series, despite moderate audience figures. It was hailed by some as being too raunchy, especially for its 9pm showing time.

Sweet Medicine starred Patricia Hodge as Georgina Sweet and Jason Merrells as Dr. Nicholas Sweet.
