Poldark

I missed this in the 70's but watched the 2nd series when it was shown on 'Yesterday' a few months ago because Marc Harrison (Sky) was in it and got hooked. How brilliantly vile was Christopher Biggins!

First series is currently being rerun on Yesterday.

Re: Poldark

I happened to catch the first episode again last night, my wife never saw it in the 70's either, so I was banging onto her how good it was etc. She enjoyed seeing 'Upstairs Downstairs' and 'The Onedin Line', both of which she never saw as a girl, so I'm pretty sure she'll be hooked on Polders

Re: Poldark

I thoroughly enjoyed both series of Poldark. The cast were terrific, but the star of the show was the scenery for me.

I enjoyed some similar scenery for real yesterday as I took the dogs out on the coast path after work, phew it was hot!;I didn't get home until gone nine, so missed Poldark episode II.

Ah, I be in Poldark Country too.
Not many miles from Warleggan (twinned with Narnia, the sign says.)
(Du Maurier, as well... Jamaica Inn.)

Too hot for walks these last two days, but I may get out on the cliffs tomorrow.
