Season 5
short | 04:10 | CC
From his arrival in Cornwall to his love story with Caroline and beyond, relive all the best moments of Dr. Dwight Enys.
- Captain Poldark.
- Doctor Enys.
- Dogs do not need to be carried.
Have a druggist make up this paregoric of black cherry water and Theban opium.
- Thank you.
- [Dwight] Oranges.
(chuckles) - Now you're under obligation to me.
- (chuckles) Is that where you prefer your men?
- You're rather impertinent.
- I like you very much too.
- [Verity] Can you tell what ails her?
- [Dwight] I have my suspicions.
I'll call again tomorrow.
In the meantime -- - [Verity] What shall I give her?
- Honey, juniper, a little warm milk, and your very best attention.
- Do you dislike me so very much?
- Dislike?
If coming between me and my work for the last 12 months, if being unable to forget your voice, or the way you turn your head, or the lights in your hair, if wanting to hear that you're married, and dreading to hear that you're married, if that's dislike, perhaps you can identify these symptoms for me.
- If you come to me with a sore throat I know what to do.
If I meet you in a drawing room, you are a creature whose moves and manners I've never learned to decipher.
And if you laugh at me, which you frequently do, I become tongue-tied and foolish.
- [Rosina] 'Tis all mended.
I feel no pain.
'Tis a miracle.
- (chuckles) No, basic anatomy.
I am a gentleman, sir.
- And she is an heiress.
Six thousand pounds.
Six thousand pounds, all you get if you married her.
- God knows I've never given you cause to suppose me a fortune hunter.
And if you imagine that no man without an eye to her inheritance could fall in love with your niece, then you greatly underrate her charms and insult us both.
- Ignorance is most assuredly bliss.
- And in mine, bliss is most assuredly Caroline.
Can you bear with me?
- I can bear anything, now that I know I've not lost your love.
- I know what I'd advise.
Get rid of the splints and the swaddling, put him out in the fresh air.
- Doctor Enys does not subscribe to old wives' tales.
- In this case, he does.
Splints and swaddling have no efficacy.
And rickets is exacerbated by lack of light.
Give him plenty of fresh fruit, vegetables, mother's milk and sunlight.
You'll see an improvement within days.
- This is intolerable.
Can a man not have an ocean to himself now and then?
- Is this your custom now?
- Only on days when I become a father.
- That's tremendous.
(laughs) - Be not in a haste to leave us, little one.
Stay a while longer.
- I cannot help you, sir, nor do I wish to.
It's my humble opinion that if a husband cannot win his wife by loving kindness and sympathy, then he deserves to go without her.
I bid you both good day.
Yes, I will take over Sir George's case on one condition.
I must be given free reign.
- But, Doctor Penrose insisted -- - Doctor Penrose's methods were primitive in the extreme.
His aim was to break Sir George.
Mine is to mend him.
And to that end, I insist upon no locked doors, plenty of fresh air, sunlight, wholesome food, and company.
Sir George has taken refuge in a world of shadows.
He needs to learn that it is safe to return to this one.
Her memory should be cherished, not mistaken for what is real, however painful that may be.
Pain is powerful, but needful.
It reminds us that we're alive.
We cannot avoid it, nor should we try.
