Hi, I am an old fan of the series, having watched it as a teenager (giving my age away here!) and lapped up the books - except the latest one, which I hadn't heard of until I found this forum. I wonder if someone could help me please as I am trying to find a particular quote to use in an essay for my Open Universi...

For the past few years, I've just been amazed at how people butcher the English language. Especially here in the U.S. I was taught to read by the time I was four years old because my mother knew that public school wouldn't be enough.
I watch the Poldark series and that all goes away. It helps me cope with...

Hi everyone,
I have the Poldark saga and loved it, but the books are quite old and I´ve been restoring them. The second book, Warleggan, has two pages which are ripped (broken), I think a mistake from the printing press. I really tried to find them in spanish, but it was impossible... for all I´ve seen,...

Great pity about Butto which spoilt the ending of the last book enormously as it was so completely out of character with everything that had happened up till then. But then at WG's age allowances must be made for it must have been a huge effort to begin with. Nevertheless I've always wondered why d...

It never ceases to amaze me why the later Poldark books have not been snapped up to be made into a continuing series or even a film, but for anyone interested, take a look at the episode of Sharpe that's currently being screened on 'Yesterday' TV. It reflects the build up to the battle of Waterloo, the Du...

I've always liked Jud and Elizabeth the most for ages but I think nowadays it has to be Jud and Verity. She had such patience ! Pity Winston didn't make more of her character towards the end.
