Poldark. The complete 1st season Cover Image DVD DVD

Poldark. The complete 1st season [videorecording] / a Mammoth Screen Production for BBC and Masterpiece ; produced by Eliza Mellor ; written and created for television by Debbie Horsfield ; directed by Ed Bazagette and William McGregor.

Summary:

It's 1783, and Ross Poldark has returned home from the American Revolutionary War to find England in the grip of recession and his beloved Cornwall on its knees. His father is dead, his family's land and copper mines are in ruins, and his childhood sweetheart is about to marry his first cousin. Feeling betrayed by everything he loves, Ross must rebuild his life, embarking on a risky business venture, facing new adversaries, and finding love where he least expects it. Based on the novels by Winston Graham and set against the dramatic Cornish coastline, this striking saga stars Aidan Turner (The Hobbit) as Ross Poldark, Eleanor Tomlinson (Death Comes to Pemberley) as the fiery Demelza, and includes a special appearance by Robin Ellis, who played the original Ross Poldark in the 1970s.
