As a guy, I'm a little shy about admitting how much I like this show. But the idea of a solider who fought against the American War for Independence who then comes home and builds back his life is fascinating. I'd actually like more focus on the mining and the business aspects and less romance. But overall, what an incredible show!

Having seen the trailer, I was expecting something very very good BUT what I got was INCREDIBLE, FANTASTIC & BELIEVABLE viewing which transported me along the beautiful roads and countryside of 18th century Britain and along the way I was introduced to the best eye-popping candy I have seen in decades.....the delectable Aidan Turner. It was so good in fact that I immersed myself in the whole of the 1st and 2nd series in one weekend ....so ladies, my suggestion to you is to do what I did, put away your vacuums, dishcloths and pegbags, put your mobiles on silent, make some coffee and sit back and take in all that is magical and exciting right from the first minute of my most favorite series EVER. I hope you enjoy it as much.....

Although the BBC had adapted the classic novels before this 2015 re-launch has gone down as a big success, and boosted Sunday night telly hugely.Well shot and well acted it is a show well deserving of its success and it wouldn't surprise me if the BBC milk it for all its worth.

Poldark is a mixture of Downtown Abbey, Pretty Woman and Dallas. It has the feel of J.R. Ewing's deception. Richard Gere's arrogance and Julia Roberts' insecurity. The pomposity of the Downton Abbey's Crawley family. Believe in unconditional love; unabashed hatred; and the determination to succeed. Well scripted, acted and cast. I'm ANXIOUSLY awaiting S3.
