Personally I have enjoyed both versions. The older one was many years ago so I barely remembered the story.

@Lilysmom I agree with you. I used to feel sorry for the actress playing his wife but upon seeing his real life picture now - wow, not so much. 😃

Wow! He's very good looking. What a difference 35lbs make.I never would have quessed they're the same person.

I’ve seen other pictures of him not as the Vicar and I think he is very handsome. I read an online article that he had to gain so much weight for the character, but a lot of it was muscle. They tried to beef up his muscles as well I guess to balance him out. Also, he is actually married to the actress who plays Morwenna.
Love me some Poldark

@bmorechick You are mistaken re: his wife. I read today his wife has a part in the PBS series The Durrells in Corfu. I don’t watch it so who she plays didn’t mean anything to me and I don’t remember.

I will miss the vicar; he was my favorite character. He was so awful.

@Highlands72 Yes, loved the miffed looks he got. It was hard to care about Morwenna, so spineless and woe begone. Her sister was the opposite and more than a match for the vicar.
I think Drake and Sam were miscast, there is nothing hot or appealing about either of them. One should have been a ginger.

I thought it was grittier and somehow it struck me as more how the times would have looked, and sounded
I liked the first series cast far better
The first cast was definitely superior.in my opinion. I particularly liked the first Demelza (sp) so much more than the present one....she was a tiny little thing;so charming but determined as you would expect a woman of her background to be.,I recently read an article about the original series and the Brits who replied whole heartedly agreed.
