Set in the fictional Lancashire village of Ormston in the 1950s, Born & Bred centres on the relationship between city doctor Tom Gilder (Michael French – Casualty, EastEnders) and his village GP father, Arthur Gilder (James Bolam – New Tricks).

Tom returns to the village he grew up in to help his father, Arthur, bring the cottage hospital, Ormston Memorial, into the fledgling National Health Service. Their medical methods and generational differences occasionally put them on a collision course; it often takes the effort of the whole village to stop them from killing each other.

Born & Bred also stars Clive Swift (Keeping Up Appearances) and Jenna Russell (EastEnders)
