From the official site at TV ONE:

"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 learnt that life can be complex wherever you are.

Mercy Peak is home to a cast of colourful, quirky and - above all - complex characters: William, the tenacious head doctor; his son, Alistair, living in the shadow of his father; Louise, the calm centre of the hospital whose personal life is a mess; and Ken, the amiable cop with a penchant for sci-fi and no luck in love.

Their stories are the heart of Mercy Peak: Their triumphs, their failings, their foibles and - above all - their passions.

Mercy Peak is about the search for love, forgiveness and mercy, about discovering that the world can be good or bad but that there is always hope and humour."

Note: This clip is from Craig's page at Karen Kay Management. I cut out the bit of the reel from that MP ep. I tried to improve the quality a bit, too. Still not very good, though, if I ever get my hands on this ep I'll certainly make you a proper clip of this! :)
