....tee hee indeed....

....it's just a romp isn't it....

The whole thing is absolutely hilarious.

Did anyone see the sublime Julia Davis series Hunderby ?

Here is ProperPoldark - "How Poldark would have been using real Cornish people"

[Anna]

That was a proper laugh out loud and splutter coffee over the keyboard moment!!
Brilliant!

Almost as funny as the BBC version!

I've started to count the number of times Ross rides his horse across the clifftops, hoping that they remember whether it should be from left to right or right to left, depending on who he be visitin'

...how fare the sturdy nags, all this tooing and froing .... eh?

We see those stocky film horses down this way from time to time - short of body, hairy of hoof - recently for Robin Hood (Ridley Scott), Snow White and the Seven Huntsmen.....they have their own caravans.....

[Ferretfancy]

Apparently Ross ( Aidan Turner) is not such a good rider as Demelza ( Eleanor Tomlinson), and in the shots where they are both on the same horse she does the steering!

I imagine he's replaced by a double in those long shots on the cliffs.

[Flosshilde]

Well, they wouldn't want to risk damaging him, would they?

& I agree - he is more than a pretty face; the rest of him's not bad (at least, the top half - I haven't seen the rest of him)

My 13-yr old daughter is incensed that Ross doesn't warm his horse up before setting off at a fast lick from Elizabeth's door. I was more surprised that he went over rather than round that dinky little lawn!
