As he sets off for Truro, Demelza asks him to give her best to Elizabeth, knowing full well he already has. But Ross’ days of being able to offer loans is long behind him. Ross fears Tonkin is only after a loan, like the one he’d given Harry Bluin (to keep him out of debtors prison) years earlier. Adding insult to injury, as they pass on the byway, George gloats about Ross’ recent loss, err, losses, saying, with his engagement to Elizabeth, he appears to have won. Ross agrees that George appears to have won, giving George an existential crisis instead of a bachelor party.Ĭa-Ching!: Richard Tonkin just out of debtor’s prison sends word he wants to meet with Ross. Instead she hit him where it really hurt, with a few home truths about how truly disappointed she was in him, and how much less of a man he was than she originally thought.
In response to Demelza’s anger, he tells her he thinks it’s counter-productive, that he never claimed to be perfect and wants her to wait for it to play itself out? Did you actually just say that out loud? Putz! If I was Demelza I would have punched him again right there. Well, if he’s going to go down that road, did he ever ask himself if Demelza knew the risks before she gave him her heart?īecause there is that Big Brood: the matter of him not being able to make up his mind between his wife and his ever-unattainable mistress. When Heshawe tries to assuage his guilt by telling him that everyone knew the risks, Ross questions if the dead miner’s wives knew the risks. The mine is closing and selling off its equipment. And there’s so much to brood about he’s made a mess of many things. Our episode begins with Ross (shiner courtesy of Demelza) doing what he does best: Brooding. Too Much, Too Little, Too Late: This is the persistent ballad of Ross Poldark:.And speaking of ignominy (or the lack thereof), did you know that the separation between Ross Poldark and King Henry VIII is a mere four degrees? Both Demelza and Elizabeth might argue it’s fewer degrees than that, but let’s break it down… Of course, there were any number of ignominious activities (and intentions) on display in this episode. Your homework assignment this week, dear Poldarkians, is to use it in conversation without sounding like you should be wearing a powdered wig.

If you had to as well, there would be no ignominy in admitting it.
