After enduring months of abuse of all kinds, here Morwenna finally faces Ossie and calls him out for the foul fiend that he is. Of course, she wasn’t going to kill her child, but she wisely used the one thing she had to stop her loathsome husband. Morwenna’s eyes burn under her heavy brows, and we, along with the totally stunned Ossie, believe she just might do it. In this scene, Morwenna makes a promise to the foot-loving reverend that if he attempts to resume their relations, she will smother their son. Now that we know how he met his end and have seen Morwenna happily married to Drake, we can fully appreciate Ossie’s complete toadishness. This is the season that gave us Ross and company’s daring rescue of Dwight from the French prison, the vision-impaired pretty boy Hugh Armitage (boo) and, perhaps most entertainingly, in spite of his utter despicableness, the Rev.

Season 3 got things back on track and the series finally moved away from the Ross-might-get-hung storyline. If we didn’t know better, this scene would make it seem that things are over for the hot-headed couple. The scene, too, is thoughtfully composed, with Demelza sitting regally in bed and Ross standing in front of her, painfully ingesting her critique. It is one of the more eloquent you-have-disappointed-me’s out there - just listen to the line, “It is not my pride that is wounded, Ross, it is my pride in you.” Ouch. In this scene, Demelza offers up a powerful and damning condemnation of Ross’ actions, but in the most Demelza way possible, by making this not about her wounded heart, but about Ross’ fall from her esteem. 1 Weasle, George Warleggan, and in a fit of rage, forces himself on her. Dwight Enys and the sartorially gifted Caroline Penvenen, this was not a happy time for Ross and Demelza - in Season 2 Ross learns Elizabeth intends to marry Cornwall’s No. While it did give us the pretty togetherness of Dr. It’s a pretty dreary one on the whole, especially with the loss of Francis. Season 2 may be best remembered as the season where Ross goes to prison a lot and almost gets hung. Their love quadrangle is never so apparent as in this dusky-hued moment of Ross watching Demelza watching Ross as Elizabeth watches the two of them and Francis watches her. And then there is poor Francis, who shares a quick glance with his wife, recognition passing between them that Elizabeth has never looked at him the way Demelza is looking at Ross. We watch too as Elizabeth, who was so sure of Ross’ affection in spite of her marriage, begins to understand that she has lost out to this new woman. But this isn’t just a scene of love expressed and realized. As Demelza sings “I’d Pluck a Fair Rose” (by Anne Dudley), the intensity of Ross’ gaze upon her grows until the room fairly steams.

In this candlelit scene from Season 1, Demelza sings for a gathering of aristocrats at Trenwith, Ross’ ancestral estate and the then-current home of his first love Elizabeth and her husband, Ross’ cousin Francis. Of course, by now we know that Demelza is the only woman for our hunky and sometimes tiresome hero (always with the doing the right thing that is often the wrong thing), but we and Ross had to learn. To say that we thought Demelza Carne and Ross Poldark were an unlikely match would have been an understatement back in Season 1, when Ross impetuously decided to make an honest woman of the street urchin he brought into his home as his serving woman.
