I am so sorry to hear about the death of the actor Richard Morant,  I have not gotten the chance to write my review of what actors where the closes to the character that they played.  I have always felt that he was Dr. Dwight Enys to the "T".  He did an excellent job of being the sensitive, cute sexy doctor who always his put patients first.

How very sad. I enjoy his portrayal of Dwight immensely, and as others have also posted, his is the face I see as I read the novels.

Very sad news. Seemed like a lovely man, wonderful in Poldark and also Tom Brown's Schooldays. He is one of the few actors that I picture when I read the books.

Many best wishes to his family and friends at this time.

A genuine and humble man who played the part of Dwight so well and who I picture every time I read the books.

Very sad news....

Such terribly sad news. I'm sure many will miss our Dwight. Richard was such a marvellous actor.

Very sad to hear of his sudden death.  I loved his portrayal of Dwight Enys in Poldark and he will always live on in his work and in our hearts.  I will remember him for his impish sense of humour and bubbly warmth of character which came across so well in 'Cult of Poldark'.

Sad indeed.... I saw this news on facebook via Meredith Wheeler, but have not heard it mentioned on TV etc which is surprising.

When he was interviewed in The Cult of Poldark he seemed such a gentle person.

Interestingly enough, I was watching the 'Scarlet Pimpernel' filmed in 1982 today and who should pop up playing Robespierre but Dwight 1 himself (Richard Morant).  I was also interested to learn that he was married to the daughter of Douglas Fairbanks Jnr and they had 2 children, but are now divorced.

See what you think of him playing the villain Robespierre ............

Dwight meets Ross and Demelza for the first time when he is a guest at Julia's Christening:

Dwight and Caroline meet for the first time and Caroline finds that Dr Enys has a temperment to match her own (towards the end of the video clip):



Dwight gallantly offers to escort Caroline and Horace back to her hotel after seeing her leave the Assembly Rooms alone:
