Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Many of the cast found themselves puzzling over their characters' plotlines, only to discover what they felt was 'right' in Graham's original novels, seemingly ignored by the scriptwriters. Richard Morant elected to leave after the first series as a result, and his part was rewritten and recast. This was wryly reflected on-screen in the line: "I'm not the same man who went away." more

Best Mini-Series Ever, 21 August 2004
10/10
Author: whoster69 from Time-Space

Poldark originally was broadcast here in the US on Masterpiece Theater. While many Masterpiece Theater Shows have been excellent, Poldark stood out as probably the best of any I have ever seen. It was amazing. A story about a man just returning from the revolutionary war to find his home and estate in ruins, the girl he loved gone and many challenges to face. Well acted and well directed this story will keep you guessing and wanting more. I can't recommend this one enough. I hope they put it on DVD soon so I can see it again and again.

Note: There is also another Poldark series, Poldark II, which is a continuation of this series and tells you the rest of the story.
