Season 5 will be the last of Poldark!
*Spoilers ahead*
So, I have good news and I have bad news.
The good news is that I have some juicy information about season 5 of Poldark.
The bad news is that season 5 will, sadly, be the final season of the much loved drama.
In the final episode of season four, we were hit with a MAJOR plot twist.

Executive Producer Debbie Horsfield made the decision to kill off Elizabeth Warleggan.
Talking about the upcoming storyline, Debbie spoke about the book which inspired the show:
“In The Stranger from the Sea Winston Graham made many references to developments that happened in the ‘gap’ years.”

“Much can also be inferred. There are, of course, also historical events and people of the time, both in Cornwall and in London.”
“Series five will draw on all of these to follow the lives of the Poldarks, George Warleggan, the Enyses, and the Carnes in this intervening period.”
However, Karen Thrussell, executive producer for Mammoth admitted that this will be the final season of Poldark.

“We are confident that fans of the novels will appreciate the care with which Debbie Horsfield is continuing to adapt Winston Graham’s saga. This will be the last series in the Poldark chronicle…for now.”
“Who knows what the future may bring,” she added.
We have no air date as of yet, but hopefully it’s sooner rather than later.
