And so it begins!

In his latest TV drama Banished, writer Jimmy McGovern tells a brutal story about the first British convicts to be transported to Australia.

POLDARK
BBC One
Sunday, 8 March, 9pm
The very lovely vampire dwarf Aidan Turner plays a stubborn but heroic Cornishman who returns from the American War of Independence to discover that his father has died and his fiancee is betrothed to another man.
I’ll be watching this mostly for historic research.
Mostly.
