Poldark Season 5’s premiere sees the newfound peace with the family disturbed when Ross’ former Army colonel, Ned Despard, reaches out for help.
Demelza is left in Cornwall to manage all their affairs. Usually, she’d be fine but there’s a new opponent causing problems. And for George, he’s trying to handle the loss of Elizabeth, which happened in the last episode.
