Poldark (2015 Series) - Blu-ray Forum

McCrutchy · 09-25-2016, 08:05 PM

One of precious few UK TV Blu-ray releases from ITV DVD is the new Poldark (2015-). The first series was just snuck out this month (over a year after the DVD...) and the second series and box set will be out concurrently on 7 November 2016.

Does anybody watch this? I'm almost certain to order the box to support UK TV on Blu-ray, but I've yet to watch any. How is it?

I've got the US Blu-Ray of series 1. I thought series 1 was pretty good, good story, good performances, good location work, an expensive production and looks great on Blu. There is a review of the Blu-Ray on bluray.com and it's worth reading that for a second opinion as the reviewer didnt like it.

We definitely enjoyed the 1st season of Poldark(we also have S1 on BD) & we're looking forward to watching S2 as we have it on our DVR schedule.

We love this period-piece along with the exquisite locations!

Also for Poldark fans, I can recommend the book "The World Of Poldark". Basically a "making of" book for series 1, but also has lots of historical background and a great selection of colour stills.

Thanks Simon Lewis, "The World Of Poldark" looks like my 'cup of tea'!

Poldark's Cornwall looks like a great companion piece, except the price £16.59(I'll wait till it gets to the "The World Of Poldark" or lower preferably)price!!

If any one has a UK of Poldark series 2, I'd appreciate knowing exactly how many discs there are.

According to Amazon-UK it is two, yet series two is two hours longer but one disc less, really Amazon!

I haven't actually had chance yet to take a look at the Blu-ray review copy that turned up last week, but I was definitely sent three discs (labelled as 'Episodes 1-4', 'Episodes 5-8' and 'Episodes 9-10').

stratford · 11-07-2016, 12:56 PM

The Beek Thanks for that, much appreciated.

Ask me if you need better detail, Youtube have some very good Qs & As with Aiden Turner that are proper

**The Beek** when time allows, I'd be interested to read your thoughts on poldark (Aden Turner) series two. So far the one review pretty much calls it a VHS tape

Can someone please tell me if I purchase this from amazon.co.uk, will I be able to watch it on a USA blu ray player? Thank you in advance!

eracer001 not a chance, I've just tried a disc from the final season, says region B only. Which player do you have, a region mod from 220-electronics for example may be an option

eracer001 · 09-18-2019, 07:40 AM

stratford, thank you for the response! my player is just an lg. Prob won't work.

stratford · 09-18-2019, 07:53 AM

eracer001 you decide by all means,have a look, if they sell your player multi region see how much they would want to mod your own player. Failing that they have a sale on so a completely new m-r player is not that expensive. Truthfully, I've never owned a single region DVD/ Blu-ray player.
