I love Cornwall and Poldark I'm holidaying in St Agnes at the moment and have walked down Stippy Stappy Lane! So many familiar names here. Trying to identify where Winston Graham set all his locations. I know some are fictional, but like to feel I'm walking in the footsteps of Ross, Demelza, Dwigh...

Hi everyone, I first became a fan of Poldark at 12 years old when seeing the re-runs on UK Gold in 2001/2002. My Mum had been an original fan in the 70's and persuaded me to watch them and I've loved it ever since. After that I read all the books including Making Poldark and learnt the entire script of the sho...

I learned about this site on a Poldark group on facebook,yesterday, and sighed up here.Ive read the first two books of the series,sadly B&N only stocks the first three from this publisher. I remember this series as it was very popular here. Ive recently retired from the au...

I joined this forum this past weekend and want to say "hello!" and introduce myself. I'm a literary scholar and retired college teacher; one of my areas is the 18th century and I fell in love with Graham's Poldark novels about 4 or more years ago. Since then I've read the 12 Poldark novels and...

I have just finished reading the 12 Poldark novels. Whilst I was tracking down the 'Making Poldark' Book by Robin Ellis on the internet, I came across this site and was amazed there are so many people who also loved these books enough to form a society. I received my copy of Making Poldark today, so I inte...

I am brand new to the forum but have read every book and seen all the DVD's. Hello to the rest of the fans.

Hi, I am brand new to the forum. I've recently started rewatching the Poldark series on Netflix after having seen them when they originally aired on Masterpiece. Through the years I've heard that Mr. Cooke actually despised the Poldark series, but have never learned as to why he felt that way. Does...

Good Day All, I'm new here, but thought that I might write a few lines to introduce myself. I was 15 years old when I first fell for Poldark, in 1975 when the TV show was aired. I missed the first episode, but caught the second one, and was hooked on the program never missing any of the first and second season...

Hi All, My first time here - I'm Bronwyn (but most people call me Bron or Bronny) in Adelaide, South Australia. Poldark has always been my favourite book series and tv series. It was first aired here back in 1979 when I was quite young and I fell in love with it immediately and starting reading the books so...

I stumbled across this site when I was searching for a possible new series of Poldark.

I'm now watching the DVDs and wondering what's goi...

I can't believe I missed Poldark for more than 30 years. When Installment 16 of the video ended I felt that I had lost these wonderful interesting people in my life that I had just discovered, but I am now looking forward to collecting and reading the books. I am delighted to find this website with all t...

I first met the Poldarks when the Series II aired on PBS here in the States. I think I read the first 7 books next, and then was able to see parts of Series I. Recently I noticed that Series I was available on Netflix and watched the whole thing in about a week. It truly has aged well (though I now have a new ap...

Hello All, Thank you for this forum! I was initiated into the world of Poldark only this month--until then I'd never heard of it, despite having been an anglophile and BBC fan for most of my 46 years. An acquaintance suggested the BBC series, and Robin Ellis hadn't uttered more than three lines before...

This time from the far north (well, Stockton on Tees actually, but probably far north to Cornwall folks!) Poldark is my favourite fiction by far. I'm usually re-reading one or other of the novels - I'm just about to start 'The Black Moon' for the umpteenth time . . Just thought I'd drop in and say hello a...

Greetings, my first post here to introduce myself as yet another newbie who's recently discovered Winston Graham, Poldark and, now, this web site.

Hello. Introducing myself. I will be 74 next week and am ashamed to say that I had never heard of Poldark or Winston Graham and I always considered myself a well-read person!

I'm a musician,writer/ film maker, presently working in Australia. I admire the work of Winston Graham very much and was very fond of him;in fact he was very kind to me earlier in my career. He was a lovely lovely man. I look forward to participating in the forum.

Hello fellow Poldark fanatics. Both my wife and I love Poldark after falling in love with the TV series in '70's I bought the full set in Paperback for my wife and later the Video's. We have recently been watching Poldark re-runs on a Documentary Channel called 'Yesterday' Although we have been marri...

Hi All, I'm new here, I'm a huge fan of the Poldark books. Ive read all 12 novels and I found them so involving and romantic. I was really swept away by them! I love classic books and historical novels. I'll look forward to chatting on here about the different characters in Poldark.

I would like to introduce myself to the Forum. My name is Bella. I first read Poldark in the early 70's and have read all the novels about four times. About 12 years ago I visited the Poldark Mine during a holiday to Cornwall, and simply being in that part of the world was a dream come true. I had no idea Win...

Hi everyone! I'm Bruce from Kentucky. I remember the original series from the first time it was shown on PBS in the 70's when I was living in Virginia, and have been a fan since. I've been looking for the complete series for a couple of years now, it's been a little difficult finding anything close in NTS...

I just thought I should say a quick hello before I start posting. Basically I discovered Poldark through my hobby of old archive British TV from the 70's and 80's. I particularly liked those old British dramas where it's played out like a theatre and you follow the story and characters for weeks. Th...

Hello everyone I'm new to the Forum - having discovered it after renewing my acquaintance with the Poldarks thanks to the TV re-runs on Yesterday - and then Googling all things Poldark! Just back from Cornwall so hopefully I have attached a few pictures of places from the TV series. Towednack Church...

Hello All, I'm Midori, I have been a reader of the books since the late '60's when my mother bought the first four, (in Bude). I have since collected the entire series, and read them near to destruction. The television series was pure heaven for me, the characters were just as I had imagined them. I am ind...

Hello I remember "Poldark" being shown on the BBC when I was a child, although I didn't watch it. I have since read the novels and seen the series repeated on UK TV History (now known as Yesterday). I have also bought the DVDs so that I can watch it at my leisure. I thought it was wonderful. It is...

I only discovered this site yesterday, by accident, it seems heaven sent for a Poldark enthusiast. Read all the books ten years ago, came to them a bit late, picked one up in the local library, after that there was no stopping. I bought all the videos of the BBC series and re-lived the story and favouri...

Hi everyone! I am new to the site, I am a Cornish lass a long way from home, getting my fix with the Poldark books!

Hi to all those Poldark fans worldwide. Have been a fan of the books and series since the 70s and have just re-read all 12 books and seen the series on the History channel and the DVDs. So glad that there are others out there who feel the same way as I do. Winston Graham really got under a character's skin...

I have been reading the forum for a while and have decided it was about time I took the plunge and posted. I have always loved Poldark, ever since my mother-in-law ( who is cornish ) got me watching the first episode many years ago. I have not read any of the books, so cannot compare the series with the boo...

I discovered the Poldark Saga and this form about a month ago and finally decided to say hi. When not obsessing over Poldark, I'm obsessing over my first literary love "Jane Eyre."

Hi all Just finished watching last episode on UK History. I did watch the originals back when I was 10ish! I don't quite know what I will do without my Poldark fix! - ok, maybe I will read the books (again!) or buy the DVDs but it's not quite the same as looking forward to an episode weekly (as in the 70s)...

Hi all. Another ex lurker who feels compelled to post... I never took much notice of Poldark back in the 70's.Then I saw a programme about costume dramas and Ross and Demelza and Dr Dwight were on there looking back. And I thought 'Wouldn't it be nice if it was re-run.....' Second series just stated on U...

Hello All, Been driven to posting as I'm driving my hubby mad about Poldark Absolutley delighted that the series is being shown on UKTVHistory. It hasn't dated one little bit, supurb acting and looks like it was only made yesterday' Love it, just love it!! Mrs Pxx

I vaguely remember Poldark from the first time around. I was 12, so my parents must have watched it. Unsurprisingly, the thing that most stuck in my mind was the 'randy vicar', Christopher Biggins. I'm watching the repeats on UKHistory at the moment (isn't it brilliant for this sort of stuff? Last yea...

I've been a fan of Poldark for years, unfortunately it's been over22 yrs since I've seen the series. First time I saw it was in 1980when I was pregnant for our first born son, our local PBS ran it again when I was pregnant for our first born daughter, we werelooking for british names for our kids, we choo...

Hello all, I have been a fan of Poldark since the series first showed on TV in the 70's. I then read all the books and recently have started all over again with both DVDs and a full re-read. And I am introducing my family and friends to the joy of Poldark too, and happily they are equally (if not more so!) hook...

Hello! I'm new to the forum. Just finished the Twisted Sword and not sure what I'll do with myself once I'm done with Bella. Watch the DVd's again I guess. Oh and I'm moving to Cornwall in two weeks! Living the Poldark dream x

Hi, I am a huge fan of the Poldark series, with Robin Ellis, and although I read the books years ago, this site has encouraged me to read them again. Thanks a million!

Hello to all. I am a newbie and want to wish you all a good hello. I am an avid Jill Townsend fan. It is too bad that she did not do more. I admired her greatly when she was in Cimarron Strip. Years later, when watching the Poldark series, I became a fan of the actress who played Elizabeth. She looked fami...

It's been quite some time since I have frequented this web site, but I am home sick for Poldark and Poldark friends. what I thought would be a cool idea is if the moderator of this web site made some sort of photo album where members can place a picture of themselves. I think it would be nice to actually see t...

I was a fan of the novels first: I missed the series on TV. I was lucky enough to get to do one tour of the UK in the military, but I never got the chance to go to Cornwall. It rains a lot in Suffolk, too. Someday, I'll get to walk on that beach. Hopefully, not in the rain. Wally.

Hello all! I've been a fan of Poldark from high school (yes, a long time ago...) and my original copies have numerous pages falling out of them. Since then I've collected numerous versions, and still am. I still have yet to see the series come to DVD yet, but I do have book one on video. It's the finest book...

Hello all My name is Susan, I live in Sydney and have been addicted to all things Poldark ever since I switched the tele on late one evening back in the late '70s and was lucky enough to see the first episode of Poldark. Every week thereafter (it was pre-video days) I put my alarm on for 11pm so that I made su...

Hi, I'm glad to have found this board. I recently started reading the Poldark series again. I saw the first TV series first, when I was in high school, in believe. When I found the books, I bought them all. Even had to order the later ones from the UK, because at the time they weren't being sold in the US...

I'm a new fan of Poldark, both the novels and the TV series. Somehow I missed the series when it was shown on Masterpiece Theatre here in the US, and I just happened to come across the tapes about a month ago at an estate sale.

	Hi everyone! I'm Bruce from Kentucky. I remember the original series from the first time it was shown on PBS in the 70's when I was living in Virginia, and have been a fan since. I've been looking for the complete series for a couple of years now, it's been a little difficult finding anything close in NTS...
	newbie hello -discovered Poldark throo'archive TV hobby (Preview)	redrachel76	5	1231	Oct 24 6:29 PM, 2009 by poldarkgirl
	I just thought I should say a quick hello before I start posting. Basically I discovered Poldark through my hobby of old archive British TV from the 70's and 80's. I particularly liked those old British dramas where it's played out like a theatre and you follow the story and characters for weeks. Th...

	Hello All, I'm Midori, I have been a reader of the books since the late '60's when my mother bought the first four, (in Bude). I have since collected the entire series, and read them near to destruction. The television series was pure heaven for me, the characters were just as I had imagined them. I am ind...

	Hello I remember "Poldark" being shown on the BBC when I was a child, although I didn't watch it. I have since read the novels and seen the series repeated on UK TV History (now known as Yesterday). I have also bought the DVDs so that I can watch it at my leisure. I thought it was wonderful. It is...

	I only discovered this site yesterday, by accident, it seems heaven sent for a Poldark enthusiast. Read all the books ten years ago, came to them a bit late, picked one up in the local library, after that there was no stopping. I bought all the videos of the BBC series and re-lived the story and favouri...

	Hi to all those Poldark fans worldwide. Have been a fan of the books and series since the 70s and have just re-read all 12 books and seen the series on the History channel and the DVDs. So glad that there are others out there who feel the same way as I do. Winston Graham really got under a character's skin...

	I have been reading the forum for a while and have decided it was about time I took the plunge and posted. I have always loved Poldark, ever since my mother-in-law ( who is cornish ) got me watching the first episode many years ago. I have not read any of the books, so cannot compare the series with the boo...

	Hi all Just finished watching last episode on UK History. I did watch the originals back when I was 10ish!

	I vaguely remember Poldark from the first time around. I was 12, so my parents must have watched it. Unsurprisingly, the thing that most stuck in my mind was the 'randy vicar', Christopher Biggins. I'm watching the repeats on UKHistory at the moment (isn't it brilliant for this sort of stuff? Last yea...

	I was a fan of the novels first: I missed the series on TV. I was lucky enough to get to do one tour of the UK in the military, but I never got the chance to go to Cornwall. It rains a lot in Suffolk, too. Someday, I'll get to walk on that beach. Hopefully, not in the rain. Wally.
