Season Five, Episode Seven: Our Penultimate Poldark

Could we really be here? Is there really only one episode of Poldark remaining? We'll ignore the pending goodbye by focusing on Ross, who seems to be continuing his ongoing trend of making questionable choices in the coastal caves. Is he a spy? A traitor? Did we miss something? The verdict is still out.

Season Five, Episode Six: No Good Ned Goes Unpunished

The British justice system works its harsh way through Col. Ned Despard’s imagined case of treason, ending in a gruesome public hanging. But it’s not all bad news for our heroes this episode. And in a special treat for dedicated Mining Poldark listeners, Andrew Graham — son of Poldark novelist Winston Graham — joins co-host Barrett Brountas in a frank conversation about Cornwall, Ross and real British history.

Season Five, Episode Five: Drake Makes More Mistakes

Drake has made his fair share of mistakes during his years in and around Cornwall's Sawle village. Several of said mistakes have lead to his near death, multiple times. But never fear, dear viewers and listeners! He's got more mistakes up his blacksmith’s sleeve.

Season Five, Episode Four: A Raid On Trenwith

Colonel Ned Despard hasn't been long for Cornwall when he gets it in his head to stage a raid on the great house of Trenwith. It might seem like a good idea, sure — but knowing criminal justice around here, we can't see this working out in his favor.

Season Five, Episode Three: George Breaks Free

As Sir George tumbles further down his troubled mental path, his Uncle Cary taps a local doctor with less than healthy healing methods. Thank goodness Dr. Dwight is around to save the day...but who will rescue young Valentine?

Season Five, Episode Two: Conspiracies Abound

Colonel Ned Despard is a free man again, but vile below-ground conspiracies suggest he won't stay that way for long. Dr. Dwight makes no new friends by defending the rights of a criminally insane, would-be royal assassin, while Sir George Warleggan furthers his descent into grief-stricken madness. Our new Cornish century continues to surprise.

Season Five, Episode One: Ross Save The King

In this debut episode of the fifth and final season of our series, we meet a slew of new characters, including Ross Poldark, Assassination-Avoider. We’re confused about the series of events that led our rebellious young hero to a life of noble order-keeping, just as we’re also concerned about the arrival on the scene of Colonel Ned Despard, a fellow lusty-warrior type from Ross and Dwight’s time at war.

Season Four, Episode Eight: Exit, Pursued By A She-Bear

It's a dramatic wrap of a rather heady fourth season of Poldark, with new Warleggans, old flames and fresh tragedy afoot. Elizabeth may not be the most popular of characters, but you can't say she doesn't make up her mind when she needs to.

Season Four, Episode Seven: A Foggy Day In London Town

Our heros make way for the British capital, and everyone has a rather jolly good time for a short while. But political intrigue and personal vendettas catch up with Ross and Demelza, and a slimy fellow MP leads to familiar familial tensions between our romantic leads. Horace plays a key role in a lovely moment, though, which helps resolve some of the sore feelings.

Season Four, Episode Six: A Cornish Homecoming Once More

There's no place like home, and for our Cornish brethren, there's no place like Cornwall. We see Ross, Geoffrey Charles and even Caroline back in Cornwall for a change. (George is back, too, if you care.) It's a rare happy episode, and we're happy to see it during this gloomy season. It will last, surely? Surely?

Season Four, Episode Five: Ossie, Ossie, Oxen Free

The least-holy of Cornish ministers, the Reverend Ossie Whitworth, is served his just desserts courtesy the cuckolded husband of his sister-in-law mistress. Ross Poldark, MP, gets an invite to meet the Prime Minister, and we wait and watch for what comes next.

Season Four, Episode Four: No More Tiny Coffins

Dr. Dwight is correct, as usual, and his tragic diagnosis of baby Sarah comes ominously true. George, too, succeeds in proving everyone wrong, as he buys his way back into Parliament several times over. Might we have a cheerful episode, for a change?

Season Four, Episode Three: More Verity, If You Please

Remember cousin Verity? She's back in town, and every bit the peacemaker between the rival sides of the Poldark-Warleggan feud. If only she had arrived in Cornwall with a pile of cash — there's trouble at Pascoe's bank, and George is on the hunt.

Season Four, Episode Two: A Love So Sweet, A Love So Dead

We mourn for Demelza's loss of her poet love, Hugh Armitage, even as we cheer the slow resolution of our favorite Cornish couple. But resolution must come quick — we've got Ross Poldark, MP in store and the halls of Westminster on the horizon!

Season Four, Episode One: Justice! Reprieve! Cornwall!

Another new season of Poldark means another new series of crises. This time around, we've got hunger, riots and wrongful death sentences. Thankfully, our reluctant hero steps up for a change. Will his noble deeds continue?

Season Three, Episode Nine: Elizabeth And Ross Step Up

Ross and Elizabeth may be a couple who never can really be, but both step up, separately in a big way. Elizabeth lays it all out for George, who finally puts his (correct) suspicions about baby Valentine away, and Ross accepts his community's call to action for future political obligations. Another season done and dusted — surely no more troubles will befall our heroes next time around?

Season Three, Episode Eight: George Warleggan, MP?

George Warleggan is elected the Member of Parliament for Truro and Ross Poldark is elected as our least favorite grump who refuses to act. And it's not just in politics where Ross should make moves — his marriage to Demelza is under increasing pressure from the poetic Hugh Armitage, who doesn't seem to have any qualms about stepping in on true love.

Season Three, Episode Seven: A Long Expected Party

It's party season in Cornwall, as Dr. Dwight and Caroline finally tie the (official) knot and Aunt Agatha Poldark prepares for her 100th birthday. But George Warleggan isn't such a fan of the aged auntie, which leads to the showdown of the century.

Season Three, Episode Six: Pity Morwenna

As we've all learned in these many seasons of Poldark, whatever romantic couplings seem most correct are often the ones that we, the viewers, cannot ever have. So we're sad to see the young Morwenna Chynoweth and Drake Carne be torn apart by — who else — George Warleggan.
