Poldark Series 4 [DVD] [2018]

'Poldark' has been my favourite work of fiction for very many years and Captain Ross Poldark is my all-time favourite literary hero. I adored the first television rendition but this is breathtaking. Aidan Turner has absolutely nailed Ross and he so deserves the praise he's received for bringing him so vividly to life. He has fine insights into Ross's many complexities of character, he's stunning to watch and it doesn't hurt that he's such a beautiful man. Wow! George is a far more fastidious and implacable version of his first incarnation and is wonderfully vile whilst touchingly insecure. Another perfect choice. The ladies are lovely, the performances are memorable, the settings glorious, the stories intricate and dynamic and the production as a whole is superb. A worthy adaptation of a beautiful minor classic. Modern feminism definitely did not need to intrude and I was sorry that Series 4 was a little rushed. It could have done with two more episodes in order to do justice to the strength and content of 'The Angry Tide', the seventh book, but these are very minor quibbles and I heartily forgive them as this show isa pure joy. If you have never read the books, you are missing a treat. If you have never seen this lovely production, where have you been?

I'm waiting for delivery of this DVD but, having watched the whole of Series 4 on broadcast, I can say that it's a DVD that I will watch over and over again - as with the first 3 series. An incredible roller-coaster of a ride once again. I can't wait to receive it. Brilliant acting by all the cast as usual.

Who ordered this claptrap? Not me. Last time I share my Prime Video password with the wife. Load of rubbish. I'm from Truro and there's no way they're that advanced.

Very much enjoyed Series 4 which took a bit of negotiating to obtain as a "normal" DVD viewer and can't wait for the complete Series 5 to be available from first release on DVD from Amazon for normal viewers as well as to Prime members. I have also recently watched the orginal Poldark series with Robin Ellis and Angharad Rees which was really excellent too. My only real negative feelings are that I do feel that in the new series, we are treated to too many views of rocks, lashing waves and poignant music between scenes as well as the change of actors (Dr Enys in particular) midway in the first series.

These kind of series (of another time in History) are wonderful to desconnet from your day by day life, problems and routine. Poldark is one of my favourites. You inmediatly get caught into the plot.

This is the one of the best series I have ever watched and am seriously considering getting the book. The series was well written and excellently acted. perhaps I was a little biased. The mining of copper in Cornwall was to me very similarr to the mining of coal in fife. There was poverty cave ins and sheer hard work. I obviously did not live in the 19 century but there was certainly a lot of elements remaining during my childhood. Of course there was so much more than mining. There was family love, jealousy, happiness, sorrow, daring exploits and lovely cheeky humour. It was a series that could be enjoyed by both myself and my husband an we loved every minute of it. Give me more

Another great season - beautiful scenery to enjoy throughout (which will make you want to visit Cornwall) and excellent acting. A must for fans - will make you scream in anger, gasp in horror and will warm your heart too! What a great series.
