Alis girls Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 Sorry was 2012 she died - and it wasnt Anna Massey who played Verity. Robin Ellis lives the good life in France with wife, cats and chickens and writes cookery books on diabetes as hes a type 2 diabetic.

Cinnamon Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Yes, she did die a few years ago. She made wonderful jewellery before she died & built up a really successful business with it. She provided the girls from 'Charmed' with their jewellery on the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Oh yes I rather fancied Richard Morant as the Doc! Um seems another one no longer living. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I remember him - he was rather fanciable in Flashman, wasn't he? Just looked him up, and he came from near here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I don't remember Flashman. I remember liking the name Dwight and thought oooh yes nice boy's name. OH said NOPE!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I had to look up Richard Morant too - I totally remember him in Flashman, he was vile (but rather dishy!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 There were two actors who played Dwight Enys, I seem to recall.... ..but a quick google tells me that the first Dr Enys, Richard Morant, is the one I remember best, and that's the face I picture when I read the books.

The Dogmother Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Lovely programme again on Sunday, although a couple of things irked me; Why was half the village watching out for pilchards day after day? It was like deja vu all over again. I know it was important to their economy, but I got the message after the 2nd shot. Prudy and her feckless OH are getting on my nerves with their 't'ain't right...' routine they remind me of the ugly sisters in Cinderella. I really feel that this bit of script has been over-egged, and is getting too pantomime. Is it just me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, it didn't seem so often (when reading the book) because there were a lot of pages in between each interreaction. TV naturally concertinas up the action.

The Dogmother Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Having said that, there were some lovely, and touching scenes in that episode, and plenty of Mr Turner's bare chest to be getting on with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 T'aint right or proper - I thought they were avoiding accents in this series as some actors arent good at them. I agree lets have ye good olde fashioned English we can all understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alis girls Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 The next job I want is appying the baby oil to Aidan Turner so he looks muscular and hunky in the programme. I will elbow anybody out of the way to be first in the queue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groovychook Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 What a marvellous final episode Feeling slightly bereft and will be doing a lot of thumb twiddling till the next series starts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Bereft was the right word - the ending "Poldark will return" didnt reassure me that much as it'll be autumn or new year before we see his fate. "Taint blah blah blah" you catch my drift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
