A publicity shot for the new Poldarck series that had them red faced

Didn't take too long to spot, but I think there's a red herring.

Yep, got it. Doesn't look like a herring though

Trainfish · March 11, 2015, 05:55:45 PM

That's quite alarming that you can see that, looks black and blue to me!

Bob Tidbury · March 11, 2015, 07:01:40 PM

Funny you should say that dodger ,Val looked at the windows after spotting the obvious, she reckons they are double glazed.

If the alarm goes off, does a semaphore tower appear above the roof and signal to the Old Bill?

Not sure, but it might be a bit early for semaphore. It's more likely a beacon fire would be started on the roof (fascinating historical fact: this was one impetus for the development of the semaphore system, as the beacon fire was also the signal for the fire service and hence a common cause of confusion and also unintended infernos, e.g. the Pudding Lane bakery incident in 1666, triggered by a faulty smoke detector [^*] )

You're probably right. The semaphore system in England dated from 1795 and Poldark was supposedly someone who had been a prisoner in the American revolution, so he'd be well into his 40's or 50's for that scenario. Rats, another anachronism
