Actress Eleanor Tomlinson

British actress Eleanor Tomlinson is a big star in America thanks to the success of the British series "Poldark" on PBS.


She plays Demelza, a servant girl who marries the eponymous hero of "Poldark" - Ross Poldark, a British veteran of the American Revolution who comes home to find that his original fiancĂ©e married someone else when she thought he was dead.  Ross originally hires Demelza  as a maid and falls in love with her while trying to run the copper mine in his village.  The program is based on a series of novels by Winston Graham.

Ms. Tomlinson has done other British TV shows, such as the three-part drama "Death Comes to Pemberley," a murder mystery based on a P.D. James novel using characters based on Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice," and "Ordeal by Innocence," another three-part drama based on yet another book - the Agatha Christie novel of the same name.  Ms. Tomlinson also took part in an experimental  biography movie about Vincent Van Gogh, Loving Vincent, in which cast members were animated based on Van Gogh's paintings.  Ms. Tomlinson played one of Van Gogh's models.


Eleanor Tomlinson is only 26 years old at this wiring, so she has a brilliant future ahead of her.
