Poldark cast perform for the President of China
As part of the Chinese State Visit, Poldark cast members Heida Reed (Elizabeth) and Jack Farthing (George Warleggan) were invited to Lancaster House to meet The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and the Chinese President, Xi Jinping, in an event to showcase the creative industries. Heida and Jack performed a scene penned by Debbie Horsfield, writer and executive producer of the hit show. Studio cameras and a sound engineer were also in place to give a sense of a film set and after the scene ended the guests chatted to the actors and writer.
Poldark will air in China, as part of the new creative and technology partnership between the UK and China. The Cornish saga will be shown on the leading Chinese online video company channel LeTV in an multi-year deal with ITVS Global Entertainment.
The second series of the hit adaptation of Winston Graham’s classic novels is currently filming.
