Warleggen it

Slightly puzzled by the way BBC1 schedulers have treated Poldark over the years. The original series went out from October 1975 into the New Year (16 parts). The second series, again of 16, followed in October 1977.

The 2015 reboot started in March 2015 (8); series 2 was moved to September 2016 (10); series 3 and 4 started in June 2017 and 2018.

Now we learn that the (final) series 5 starts 14th July, running right through school holidays - normally when Controllers 'burn off' less valuable dramatic stock. Let's see.
