In the first episode of the hit British period drama series Poldark, we are introduced to the character of Ross Poldark, a former soldier who returns to his home of Cornwall in the late 18th century after fighting in the American Revolutionary War.

Upon his return, Ross finds his family estate in disarray, with the death of his father and financial troubles plaguing his family. He discovers that his former love, Elizabeth, is now engaged to his cousin Francis, and that his childhood love, Demelza, is now a servant in his cousin's household.

As Ross tries to get his family's estate back on track and navigate his complicated relationships with Elizabeth and Demelza, he finds himself at odds with the wealthy and influential Warleggan family, who hold a grudge against him and his family.

The episode is set against the backdrop of the changing social and political landscape of late 18th century England, with the French Revolution and the rise of industry and capitalism influencing the lives of the characters.

We see Ross struggling to adapt to the changes in his world while trying to hold onto the values he grew up with, such as loyalty, honesty, and hard work. He finds himself in conflict with his own class and station in life, struggling to balance his desire for justice and fairness with his obligations to his peers and family.

Overall, the first episode of Poldark sets the stage for a gripping and dynamic series that explores themes of love, loyalty, ambition, and social change in a stunning historical setting. With complex characters, rich storytelling, and breathtaking scenery, Poldark is a must-watch for fans of historical dramas and period pieces.
