Poldark
Cornish mine owner
Poldark is a British historical drama series based on Winston Graham's novels, set in late 18th-century Cornwall.
The name refers to Ross Poldark, the brooding protagonist—a soldier who returns from the American Revolutionary War to find his estate in ruins.
The series, adapted twice for television (1975 and 2015), blends romance, class conflict, and rugged coastal scenery.
She spent the weekend binge-watching Poldark.
