Showrunner Debbie Horsefield has said before that a major portion of the show’s story will be based on “The Stranger from the Sea”. The book shows several changes in the plot and characters in the ‘gap’ years.
Who is the stranger
Although everybody associated with the Poldark Season 5 has kept mum about the plot, speculations can be made based on the book. The Stranger from the Sea focuses on Stephen Carrington, rescued by Jeremy from the titular sea. Carrington’s entry is expected to cause several changes in the lives of the Poldarks.
BBS has not yet made any statement about “grown-up” Jeremey and Clowance, but several new cast members have been added. The major names include Peter Sullivan, Kerri McLean, Lily Dodsworth Evans, and Sofia Oxenham.
Poldark Season 5 shooting wrapped up in February this year, but the release may be postponed till later this year.
