BBC One has unveiled the first trailer for the new season of Poldark.

The Hobbit star Aidan Turner is back as Ross Poldark alongside Eleanor Tomlinson as his wife Demelza in ten new episodes of the Cornish period drama this autumn.

Season 2 begins on Sunday 4 September on BBC One.

Turner’s dramatic voiceover declares: “I fought for our liberty, for our hopes, for our dreams. And I’ll keep on fighting – whatever the cost.”

Poldark launched on BBC One in March 2015, peaking with 9.4 million viewers across TV and iPlayer, and Season 2 started filming in Cornwall last September.
