THERE'S FORTY SHILLINGS ON THE DRUM
FOR THOSE WHO VOLUNTEER TO COME
TO 'LIST AND FIGHT THE FOE TODAY
OVER THE HILLS AND FAR AWAY
>>
To any Sharpe fans unaware, the author Bernard Cornwell and Sean Bean himself recently appeared on a podcast talking about the show

Well sir, on first sighting the Sharpe thread, I naturally gave the order to reply, that’s my style sir.
>>
>>220285293
WERE I LAID ON GREENLAND’S COAST,
AND IN MY ARMS EMBRACED MY LASS,
WARM AMIDST ETERNAL FROST,
TOO SOON THE HALF-YEAR’S NIGHT WOULD PASS.

WERE I SOLD ON INDIAN SOIL,
SOON AS THE BURNING DAY WAS CLOSED,
I COULD MOCK THE SULTRY TOIL
WHEN ON MY CHARMER’S BREAST REPOSED.

Cooper's is a weird case. He's definitely killed in Sharpe's Rifles (book) only to fetch up alive in later ones, with absolutely no-one saying a single word about it.

He was only acted by Brian Cox they just transferred some of Hogan's lines to another character.
The whole "swagging about like a pirate" lost its punch when it didn't come from an old comrade in arms.

Harry Price does the same in the TV series.
He's shot at the fall of Badajoz, then shows up with a new face at Waterloo.

Before my dad had to go live in memory care facility and before he ultimately passed away he was living with my grandmother, his mother, and the home where she raised all of the kids. A very comfy house built in the 50s. During my first semester of law school I would bring my laptop and do a movie night where we would watch a Sharpe movie. We all loved them. I would pick up pizza and we would all sit around and watch Sharpe. It really is such a nice memory to have in a time when it's mostly bad times, given my dad's dementia. I'm grateful for those movies and those nights.

The worst thing about militaryfags is that they act like it's a honorable profession while they rape and pillage, causing untold human suffering. Yet it's the mercs that get called the dogs of war. Remember how Moby Dick starts? Ishmael goes out to sea because he freely admits he's suicidal and has nothing better to do. Mercs are like that, impersonal, they go to war out of sheer emptyness of the soul. Still would rather be a merc than a careerfag. If Tolstoy could watch Sharpe I bet he'd laugh about how Anglo propaganda hasn't changed for 150 years.
>>
>>220300079
we should nuke them too. My jb just banned the entire country due to https://www.indiatoday.in/jobs/story/study-finds-95-per-cent-of-it-grads-in-india-lack-coding-skills-unfit-for-jobs-tchc-2900024-2026-04-22

I'm sorry your old father is a homosexual, it must have been such a struggle having him come out and ruin your family. Good on you for sticking with him, but it's not really helpful to pander to these people you know, eventually he's going to have to accept that you're straight.

I've seen sharpe so many times so i've decided to finally watch hornblower, does anyone know if there is any point downloading it or is the yt one the best quality you can get anyway?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ezKHw8ocCM
>>
>>220285676
That’s because he’s in most of the books but Cox i think had other projects so didn’t do anymore after the first two films, so they had to replace the spymaster character with other characters, most of which do appear in books as well if I remember correctly.

In the books Hogan dies of fever in Sharpe’s Siege. In the TV film Ross has it and lives

They had to recast Wellington with Captain Hastings at the same time.

lol never mind both sharpe and hornblower had bluray releases, guess i'll dl both

Nation states weren't even in the public consciousness then really. In hindsight they did exist but the average person didn't think that way.

you could always read the books or if your one of those can't read types their are audio books

Why would they? We're ruled by globalists, and they don't want anything that promotes nationalism or patriotism, and shows like Sharpe and Hornblower are strong proponents of that.
