With some fresh updates!
(But no topless scything.)
After the action lull that waslast week, a whole lot happens here, so lets get into it.
So how does George recover?
Dwight is officially put in charge of his case, and his prescriptions are sunshine and unlocked doors.
They visit Elizabeths grave, and George talks through the pain and anger of her leaving.
This all feels very healthy.
Were halfway through the final season, so in all likelihood, no.
Ill miss you, Sad George.
Wait, his marriage to Cecily?, you interrupt, callously ignoring my ode to everyones least-favorite character.
Also Jo inLittle Women.
But what is happening with Ross and Ned and Demelza?
Because Georges mine is still closed after the accident, people are starving and being evicted from their homes.
Ned is extremely upset, and Ross decides to venture to buy the mine from George.
Surely, you say, this new smiley Ross discusses the purchase with Demelza first.
Hell have to mortgage his entire estate, and he justsignsthe document without telling her.
Ross.Ross.I thought wed moved past this.
What are you doing?
Youve been so much better this season.
Then George agrees to reopen the mine.
Everyone disperses, and Ross doesnt have to mortgage anything.
Alls fine now, right?
GOOD JOB, DEMELZA.
A gold You Tried star for Ross.
Oh, there is more, albeit seen in bits and snatches in this episode.
Morwenna sees her son in the marketplace and proceeds to peer at him from behind a thicket.
(Have we talked about how Morwenna got bangs?
I am not a fan.)
It feels like a weird anticlimax for the episode.
Does this mean Tesss employment status will become a major plot point in the future?
Or do thePoldarkwriters just get a thrill out of staffing changes and assume we all do too?
Is it an 11?
Will Morwenna grow out her bangs since they do nothing for her?
Can Caroline find a friend who is not her pug, Horace?
