Poldark season 3 episode 3 spoilers: Did Dwight die in France?

Did Dwight die while in France? Heading into Poldark season 3 episode 3, there is a question to ponder there and a legitimate reason to be afraid. What’s also said about this is that the fear of Dwight’s death is coming so soon after his marriage to Caroline, and their wedding night was already interrupted by Elizabeth giving birth. If there is one couple that is finding themselves battling consistently more trouble than anyone else, it’s clearly Dwight given that his relationship with Caroline wasn’t even a given for a long time. (We say all of this knowing very well that Demelza and Ross have also gone through varying degrees of hell.)

So what is going to be happening throughout this episode beyond the Dwight question? The BBC has released a lengthy episode 3 synopsis. Note that we have omitted the final paragraph from it, given that there are some spoilers included in here that are a little bit too substantial for our liking (and we don’t want to give anything too major away):

“Ross and Tholly meet their contact Jacques Clisson in France, and Sam leads a large congregation of Methodists in song outside the church walls. Despite George’s promise to be generous to his tenants to further his ambition of becoming a burgess, he revokes the Methodist’s property lease. Clisson drives a hard bargain with Ross for his information, and George leads Caroline to expect the worst regarding Dwight.

“Ross is ordered to leave Roscoff under threat of execution, and Morwenna and Drake share a moment of intimacy on the beach. The Methodists petition Elizabeth to give them the meeting house back, and Geoffrey Charles reveals to Drake that Morwenna is fond of him. Ross decides he cannot abandon his mission and sends Tholly home alone, while Elizabeth tells George of the Methodists’ visit but unites with him on learning of their connection to the Poldarks. The Warleggans move to their house in Truro, and Demelza, angered by Ross’s decision to linger in France, gifts Sam’s flock a storehouse on Nampara land.

Basically, this is the episode where some of the stories of the first two episodes could start to come home to roost.

In the preview that aired after tonight’s episode, we saw George taking on a new appointment that will put him directly at odds with Sam and Drake. Don’t you think that is problematic given the blossoming romance that is present with Morwenna? Trouble abounds in multiple countries!
