The TV series is actively using its popularity to support social causes. Another cause the show is supporting is the Cornish language, which is a Southwestern Brittonic Celtic language that is spoken in Cornwall. It has been officially recognised as a minority language in the UK.
The popular BBC TV series is based on the novels by Winston Graham that tells the story of a Ross and his Cornish copper mines. The show is now supporting an effort to print a Cornish version of “Ted Rules the World.” The Crowdfunder page of this endeavour has over 42 supporters, but they are a long way off from reaching their goal, and they have just a few days more to reach the target.
The auction for the tickets for “Poldark” season 3 premiere ends on March 30. The actual value of these tickets has been described as “priceless.”
