POLDARKNESS

Here's the episode summary for the second season premiere of 'Hotel Babylon', which first aired in the UK back in February and was seen last night on BBC-America:

"Mr and Mrs Poldark (Cherie Lunghi and Russ Abbot), who've both undergone plastic surgery, check in to the hotel separately. They want to recuperate before their 20th wedding anniversary celebrations. But the staff become involved in various escapades, trying to prevent the couple from meeting."

Never once in the episode did it ever come up as to who Mr. Poldark's ancestors were from over 200 years ago, and why should it? So I'm all for making the claim that he was descended from Ross and Demelza Poldark, as seen in the mini-series 'Poldark'.

I'd never claim that he and his wife were the reincarnations of Ross and Demelza, because I believe they have already been reunited in modern-day Toobworld - reborn as Dharma Liberty Finkelstein and her husband Greg Montgomery.
