Dr. Barry Laverty is looking forward to his first Christmas in the cozy village of Ballybucklebo. Along with his senior partner, Dr. Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly, Barry has his hands full dealing with the usual coughs and colds as well as the occasional medical emergency, but in this 2008 installment in the series, a new doctor has come to town, and he may prove to be quack. Despite their hectic practice, Laverty and O'Reilly may also need to play Santa Claus to a struggling single mother with a sick child.
