BBC viewers were astounded to be welcomed to 'Poldork' - not Poldark - by a BBC announcer last night (April 12).
The slip-up was picked up by several viewers on Twitter and a clip is already circulating on YouTube.
The series, starring Aidan Turner as its brooding title character, has been pulling in an average of more than eight million viewers per episode each week for the BBC.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha! The announcer just said 'Poldork'.Love it.

Poldork... oh sorry, I mean, Poldark continues this Sunday (April 19) at 9pm on BBC One.
