His quick descent assuredly started soon after her death, and was no doubt helped along by Ross telling him he knows how he feels “more than you know,” which is basically like, “Hey, I banged your wife too, so I get it.” Ross, you’re an idiot. Ross is going to be a superspy. And a lot of minor and therefore much more interesting domestic events are also happening, so let’s dive into discussing them. Luckily, we’ve got four seasons worth of recaps to catch you up before you dig in to the final season premiere.

Poldark’s final season is upon us, and Ross Poldark is as “hold my beer” as ever about kissing Demelza goodbye and flinging himself into dangerous situations. She is Catherine “Kitty” Despard,* a striking former Honduran slave visiting her prisoner husband Ned. Both Demelza and Kitty are remarkably good-natured about what annoying prongs they’ve married. Poor, traumatized Morwenna, finally married to Demelza’s brother Drake Carne, can’t forget the brutality of her sadistic late husband; Lady Whitworth, his dragon of a mother, has grabbed custody of Morwenna’s toddler son John Conan. Despite it being an annual tradition on Poldark for a person of rank to corner a reluctant Ross by the syllabub and force a position of power on him, that was a turn up for the books.

And Ross’s kingsaving skills are apparently so amazing that they get Ned released from jail. Hanson is one of those aforementioned Honduran businessmen, who farms mahogany and hates Ned Despard so much he reported him for treason for giving land to non-Englishmen. A plea for help from Ross’ old Army Colonel, Ned Despard, disturbs the Poldarks’ newfound peace.

He’s a loon-gabber, a howl-o-the-moon, a nine pound fruit cake, an elbow-rattling hi-di-hi. Hanson and his cronies saw Ned’s activities as bad for business, so Hanson had Ned arrested on a trumped-up charge. SNIFF.

It's 1783 and Ross Poldark returns from the American War of Independence to his beloved Cornwall to find his world in ruins: his father dead, the family mine long since closed, his house wrecked and his sweetheart pledged to marry his cousin. Back in Cornwall, as George broods and his home, Trenwith, is being draped in dustsheets to prepare for his move to Truro, Ross and Demelza get a surprise visit from George’s hated stepson Geoffrey Charles. Up he popped, again and again telling Ross to reconsider his involvement with vexatious specimen Ned. In brief, Ross is going to try to rescue his former captain (now a colonel) and right an injustice. Is this season trying to fix his former terrible behavior?

Sly, surly and likely plotting to raze Nampara to the ground, she was last seen sharpening a knife and making prison-yard eye contact as Demelza’s London-bound carriage wheeled out of the farm.
