Theatrical Release Information | See Details About All Versions
In this historical drama produced for British television, the Poldark family faces the many crises of the moment as Great Britain struggles through the dark days of 1810. Ross Poldark (John Bowe) is a Member of Parliament as England wages war against France and the throne is held by a King who has gone mad; Ross joins the Army on the field of battle, while his wife Demelza (Mel Martin) and his children Jeremy (Ioan Gruffudd) and Clowance (Kelly Reilly) all pray for his safe return. While the family's feud with George Warleggen (Michael Attwell) smolders in Ross's absence, Jeremy falls into an alliance with Stephen Cravenson (Nicholas Gleaves), a noted smuggler and ne'er-do-well; Clowance also finds herself tied to Cravenson as they become romantically involved. This version of Poldark followed the popular mini-series of the same name that was produced in 1975. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
