Can definitely stay. Adian Turner
glowers, rogues, gets sweaty, sexy wounds, rescues a dog, suffers and fights in very pretty Cornish scenary. There is also tin mining, family and class conflict and relationships, fiesty females, some Jane Austen gone wrong marrying of the 'wrong' person and much, much hotness.
And Poldark being turning into a Being Human type vampire in an American War of Independence scurmish almost writes itself.
