Poldark season 5 episode 8 preview: Series finale details

Want to know some of what’s coming on Poldark season 5 episode 8? Let’s start things off with this oh-so-simple reminder: This is the series finale. Unless there is some sort of last-second revival for the series (which feels unlikely, but still is possible), we have to prepare for Ross Poldark’s time on British television to come to a close.

So what are we going to see within this episode? Think along the lines of a storytelling bridge — this is an episode that will provide some closure, but also bring Ross closer to where he is within the book series. We don’t think that every loose end will be necessarily tied up, but we should end up at least feeling happy with where certain characters end up.

Below, CarterMatt offers up the official Poldark season 5 episode 8 synopsis with some more news all about what’s coming:

The covert invasion adds a general to their ranks, as Ross (Aidan Tuner) seeks the means to foil the plot and prove Merceron (Tim Dutton) and Hanson (Peter Sullivan) are involved.

But his refusal to involve Demelza (Eleanor Tomlinson) opens old wounds and insecurities, and the suspicion of a romantic motivation. With everything on the line, George (Jack Farthing) must wrestle his prejudice for the sake of saving lives, as the fate of Cornwall hangs in the balance.

Ross actions redeem him with the crown, and as Drake (Harry Richardson) and Morwenna (Ellise Chappell) start an adventure in parenthood and Sam (Tom York) and Rosina (Amelia Clarkson) are husband and wife, Ross’s abilities are put to use overseas for King and country.

One more thing that needs to be brought up here on the subject of the finale is simply this: The start time. It’s not airing in a week’s time; instead, it’s airing tomorrow night! The series is also airing at a really weird time in 12:30 — it’s kind of a weird time for the show to air, but sometimes shows don’t get to dictate their own closure.
