Poldark Returns

The BBC had a huge hit in the 1970's with Poldark, its TV adaptation of Winston Graham's romantic novels. The remake begins tonight with Aidan Turner starring as Ross Poldark, BBC One, 9pm. Will Ross go for the earthy crumpet Demelza Carne, played by Eleanor Tomlinson, or the ladylike crumpet Elizabeth Chynoweth, played by Heida Reed? And will he get his Cornish tin mine back on its feet? And do we care? The series sees the last performance by Warren Clark as Charles Poldark before he died late last year (CLICK).
