The Indian Doctor

Prem Sharma and his wife Kamini await the arrival of his formidable mother-in-law, Pushpa who is paying a visit.

Prem is under a lot of pressure to find and save Dan before it is too late.

As Prem awaits the arrival of a vaccination unit from Cardiff, Rev Todd takes the opportunity to persuade the villagers that God has stepped in after Prem's medicine failed them.

With Trefelin under quarantine, supplies are getting low. Despite Prem's attempts to piece together the evidence, the real source of the outbreak is still unknown. As one by one the miners who played cards in Ceri's barn fall victim to the virus, it seems that Dan knows more than he is letting on about how he fell ill.

Reporters gather at the surgery to hear that the outbreak of smallpox in Trefelin is finally under control. But Prem is not convinced that they have managed to locate the real source of the disease, and so the village is still not safe.
