Tha Tuath agus Deas a' tighinn ri ch猫ile ann am pr貌gram 霉r a' leantainn air soirbheachas pr貌gram 麻豆社 Alba, Sl脿inte Na Sg矛re a chaidh a thogail anns na Hearadh ann an 2013.

Leanaidh Sl脿inte na Sgire - Alderney an Dotair sgairteil D貌mhnall Iain Moireach a-rithist, 's an dotair a tha cuideachd na chroitear a' siubhal 1,000 m矛le bho a chroit sna h-Eileanan an Iar gu eilean beag Chaolas Shasainn, Alderney, far a bheil e a' cur seachad leth dhe bheatha obrach.

'S e obair dh霉bhlanach a th' ann dha dotair sam bith, 's e a' frithealadh coimhearsnachd de 2,000 leis fh猫in, agus cuideachd os cionn an ospadail sg矛reil le roinn Tubaist is 脠iginn na l霉ib. Obair 24/7 's iarrtas air an dotair fad na h-霉ine.

Le an sgothan-se貌laidh, 脿illtearachd 脿lainn agus iomadh buaidh E貌rpach follaiseach san d貌igh-beatha, shaoileadh tu gum biodh Eileanan Chaolais Shasainn iomadh m矛le bho na h-Eileanan an Iar. Ach gu math tric chan eil daoine a' gabhail for air eilean beag Alderney, agus aire air an cuid n脿baidhean a b' ainmeile, Jersey agus Guernsey.

Thar seachdain san ionad-sl脿inte eileanach eile seo gheibhear a-mach gu bheil barrachd rudan coltach ri che矛le na bhiodh an d霉il. 'S e a th'ann an Alderney, ach eilean agus coimhearsnachd a tha a' seasamh c貌mhla le eachraidh dh霉bhlanach, sg矛re far a bheil spiorad na coimhearsnachd agus dibhearsain, agus an dotair fhathast aig cridhe na coimhearsnachd. 'S dhan dotair eileanach Albannach tha e follaiseach gur e dachaigh bho dhachaigh a th' ann cuideachd.

North meets south in this entertaining sequel to the previous 麻豆社 Alba documentary An Island Practice, filmed on the Island of Harris in 2013. A Southern Island Practice returns to follow lively island doctor Donald John Murray, crofter turned doctor, as he travels 1,000 miles from his croft in the Outer Hebrides to Alderney in the Channel Islands, where he spends half his working life.

It's a challenging job for any doctor, single-handedly serving a community of around 2,000 and also managing a local hospital with Accident and Emergency - a 24/7 job where the doctor is never off duty.

With their yachting marinas, fine architecture and affluent and eclectic European vibe, you'd expect the Channel Islands to be a stark contrast to the Outer Hebrides. But the 3-square-mile island of Alderney is an overlooked haven amidst its better-known neighbours Guernsey and Jersey.

As we spend a week in the life at this other island practice some surprising similarities are revealed. A place united by a challenging past, where a sense of fun and community spirit still runs strong and where the doctor is still at the heart of the community. And for our Scottish Island Doctor, its clearly become a home from home.
