Poldark’s fifth and final series will conclude in a special double bill over the August Bank Holiday weekend.
The final season’s penultimate episode will air on Sunday August 25 at 8pm and the epic finale will air the next day at 8:30pm on BBC One, and Charlotte Moore, director of BBC Content, admits the show has been a "runaway success" for the corporation.
She said: "Over the last four years Poldark has been a runaway success for BBC One and has become a firm favourite with audiences of all ages.
"It’s been wonderful to follow Ross and Demezela’s adventures and the changing fortunes of the Poldark and Warleggan dynasties.
"From the beginning everyone involved in the production has been committed to being faithful to Winston Graham’s brilliant novels, and so this is sadly the last episode of the last series.
"Everyone at the BBC would like to thank fans in Cornwall and around the world who have been so supportive of the show, the incredible cast, the crew, Debbie Horsfield, and the team at Mammoth for bringing us such a special series."
The finale will end with Ross Poldark – portrayed by Aidan Turner – hoping to foil a French invasion and implicate his enemies.
Following the conclusion of episode seven, ‘Poldark’ fans will be able to check out a first-look clip of the hotly-anticipated finale on BBC iPlayer.
Poldark – which first aired in 2015 – is an adaptation of Winston Graham’s novels.
