I love that when Sharpe entered the tent, he was just confused. Absolutely confused. He looked for any confirmation as to what on Earth was happening, but the only other person in the tent entirely gave up.
James purfoy is a great actor
Spears wishing he had his hand back to plug his ears
@@matthewrobinett1012 I don’t think that was acting. He was genuinely annoyed and couldn’t leave
0:10 is the face of a man yearning for the sweet embrace of the grave. James Purefoy (Captain Jack Spears) needs to win all the awards for that moment alone.
He's great at making that face, he did it a lot in Rome too.
Typical Mark Anthony moment.
@@primkup I can't unsee Mark Antony because of seeing Rome first
@@HaloFTW55 That's right! Just the same... And *still* fucking your mother!!
Why should he win all the awards for something that most of us probably do every day 😭
Just the cut to Jack when Munro says everyone talks on the third day. Masterclass in foreshadowing.
Got to say, that was what I thought. Brilliant direction.
Foreshadowing a later plot point.
That's soldiering
Don't know if it''s foreshadowing as well when Hogan telling perkins to give back the white badge of courage in Sharpe's Rifles. 😅
But wouldn't at that point any information that has been tortured out of the person be outdated?
@@WeazelGamingHI Perhaps today, but back then troop movements and exchange of intelligence and orders was slower. A good chunk of it would still be good.
Let's just take a moment to admire the glorious sideburns each man is sporting.
I think Sideburns like this are long over due a come back
Side boards of elegance
Takes me back to my high school days
@@MrFuzzwuzzle I tried to bring them back 20 years ago. It didn't work.... Now I'm trying a handlebar mustache
Men that I held in high regard sported such if not more magnificent. It's natural and expected in these situations.
Munro knows he’s terrible at the bagpipes but doesn’t let it get in the way of enjoying himself knowing no one is going to pull him up on it…
That’s senior officering..
But he's not terrible at all. The intonation and breath control is a little sloppy, but he clearly isn't portrayed as a complete amateur. Bagpipes are just the easy joke in endless shows and films.
@@DaveDexterMusic True that.
Also a great way to get curious subordinates out of the tent
@@DaveDexterMusic @DaveDexterMusic I don't know what kind of bagpipe playing you've heard (actually, I guess I do) but that was more than "a little sloppy"
Back in those days, you could be the best bagpiper in Scotland and even so it would sound like a horrible cacophony to the average Englishman: they hadn't yet become acquainted with Scotland's national instrument. Some Englishmen STILL think so :)
'HOW DO YOU STAND IT'
*Madlad pulls out freakin earbuds*
man had literal wool in his ears!
I used to practice the bagpipes in my house, and my cat look at me like how sharpe looks at munro
My neighbour knocked on the door last night shouting "do you know what time it is?" I told him it was 3 am and he was lucky I was still up practicing my Bagpipes.
I tried learning the pipes when I was younger but even I wasn't evil enough to carry on.
How Scottish do you want Sharpe’s boss in this movie?
*YES!*
He wasn't stinking of beer and piss
But he has Marc Antony as his adjutant?
@@Agent1W I thought that looked like James Purefoy.
@@StoicLion He dreaded whatever happened to "Britannia", and why Dr. Who ever bothered to pluck him out of the early first century.
It was all British hands to the pumps. That is why we stopped countless invasions.
Beautiful! Just beautiful! That fact that these videos still go up makes my heart warm.
Nostalgia.....
Same here
Ye
When I see them go up, I naturally watch them; that's my style, sir.
Not trusting streaming services, I bought the Sharpe and Hornblower series on dvd about 10 years ago. A solid investment.
Good old young James Purefoy. When I first watched this series in the 90s I had no idea that all of the best villains in these stories like Purefoy, Daniel Craig, and Mark Strong were going to hit it so big.
He was excellent as Mark Antony in Rome as well.
Not forgetting Toby Stephens, Paul Bettany and Mark Warren.
Sorry Daniel Craig? Gill be missed that one
@@allthebanter9316 He was one of Simmersons nephews ! He was in an episode of the X-Files too.
Paul Bettany was great as was Mark Strong. Wasn't all that impressed by Daniel Craig.
Spears' face at 0:32 is priceless
Sharpe just discovered the first whoopee cushion.
0:12 That's probably the first time Marc Antony ever heard of a bagpipe played. Being a Roman out of time must certainly suck in that era.
Funny thing is the Romans apparently brought those to Britania in the first place
@@InfernosReaper It must the nooby Scottish skill at playing them that annoyed Antony and everyone else lol.
They built Hadrian's wall to keep the bagpipes out
Centurion, why is there a ginger wall in plaid running towards us? And by Jupiter, what is that horrible racket?
He heard a carnyx or two.
One of the best shows ever... and Sean Bean lives !
"Everyone talks on the third day". Man, that's brutal.
I have a neighbour who plays the bagpipes. Somehow has had fewer lessons than Munro 😂
Playing the pipes inside a tent; now that's... deafening!
I always found that scene weird, at that time Munro was an established character in the series, but here he seems like a totaly different person. All of a sudden he's wearing kilt, ending every sentence with "Laddie", playing bagpipe and stares at sharpe.
its called character development
Well, who wouldn't stare at young Sean Bean?
Would have made more sense if it was a different man with the same identity because the predecessor was killed or something and there's just another "Munro" ready to take their place.
"Don't lick me Laddieeeee" Repulsive.
@@cgavin1 Munro is a laird so perhaps it was a predecessor
Pipe Major wearing ear plugs…. That’s soldiering.
04:45 That look, now that's foreshadowing.
"now shall ye stay for haste ye tae the wedding"............"er no sir" always cracks me up
What does mean ? :0
When their enemies would retreat into fortresses the ancient Scots would surround the building and play the bagpipes day and night until the psychological torment got to be too much, and the enemy garrisons either surrendered or hurdled themselves from the walls to make the noises stop. True story.
Now that’s warfareing!
The problem in the medieval times is that when Scots surrounded a castle the people inside were also Scottish!
@@SantomPh don’t ruin a perfectly good joke
I heard that in South Africa, during a bank siege, the cops played 'I SHOULD BE SO LUCKY' by Kylie Minogue for 3 days straight. They gave up after that!
In minecraft.
"Everyone talks on the 3rd day" - Jack looks a little sheepish.
Surely it's only because he's squeamish about torture in general and not because of something that'll become relevant to the plot later...
Likely because he talked on the 3rd day (sorry for the spoiler that he's the traitor!).
@@eldorados_lost_searcher Naaah certainly not. Jack is the epiphany of a loyal officer and gentleman after all...
"... and I never had a lesson in my life". - Ferris Buehler's Day Off.
"oddly enough, those are your orders" Love it
I can see why Jack chose death on that mission. If he comes back, he has to sit and listen to this guy's bagpipes again. Good call.
That extra long shot holding on jack was something else
Sharpe may not be as educated as his aristocratic contemporaries, but he immediately grasped the significance of the detailed map.
James Purefoy who's playing Captain Jack Spears here also plays Mark Antony in HBO's TV series Rome.
He was great as Mark Anthoy.
A book code you say? I wonder if Harris's love of Voltaire is going to play into this episode.
Can diddy
@@68jroche You'd think a supposedly educated man like Simmerson thought himself to be would at least get that right.
@@julianmhall not really. Plenty of 'gentlemen', where dummies. Monty Python's Upper class twit of the year!
Well, that's Harrising, isn't it?
@@julianmhall Too busy wiping his bum on one of those damned Frog books.
I love the pipes. They give me goose bumps.
See a skin specialist 😅
Also known as Every Junior Officer’s Dream Job
Not just the Juniors but every NCO and specialist under them.
@@1stcaptainraldoron538 But Sharpe is at this point a Major -- a "field grade" officer, no longer a Junior Officer. And yet he gets the Dream Job anyway. Hum, must be his low birth!
Listening to Munro on the bagpipes? Nightmare more like :)
5:08 you know you are dealing with hot shite when your guard is a giga chad with a jawline and hunter's eyes that would put a Russian to shame!
“No nonsense about parole, Wellington wants him dead.
Any questions? I’m off to Bergius in the morning.”
Utter. Class.
Burgos.😅 A fine city, morcilla de Burgos is a delicious black pudding.
Playing the bagpipes badly.... that's scottishing
Using bagpipes as a whoopee cushion... that's scottishing.
Colonel Windbag.
Honestly, for someone who’s never had a lesson in his life, he plays them quite well.
As a practicing piper myself, this makes me cringe. Lol
And wake up played in the background by bugle
I've heard bagpipe playing likened to chicken strangling . . . and I DO like Munro the best of all of Wellington's travelers.
'Sending a regicide to guard a prince...' Munro on Sharpe being sent to advise Silly Billy
@@richardhockey8442 Yup! And Silly Billy got what was coming to him in the end . . . er, ah, ahem, SO to speak!
"Everyone talks on the third day." It's nothing personal Sharpe.
This scene is just tragic. For once Sharpe gets a assignment he is supremely able to do. And everyone is interfering in him doing it!
He chose the dangerous mission to get away from any further bagpipery.
'... Never had a lesson in me life!' We noticed!
😁
Pipe Major hurls himself into the river.😅
Sitting on some bagpipes, that's whoopee cushioning
Now that's soldiering!
00:30 And that's how the whoopee cushion was invented...
"Everybody talks on the third day."
Jean Moulin would like a word.
90s Sean bean would of been great as liquid snake in a metal gear solid movie.
Did you like my sunglasses, Snake?
"follow the rats, lad. They'll lead you int' shadow Moses"
high points of this story: James Purefoy's character going in a blaze of glory, Simmerson getting some well-deserved comeuppance at the hands of El Mirador, Sharpe's fight with a villainous french colonel at the end of the episode. favourite quote 'John Bull is a bad neighbour, but Napolean is a bully, and I can't stand bullies'
Actually for "ne'er had a lesson in my life" the colonel is a piping miracle! Played the pipes since 1985 and reenacted the 79th Camerons for o'er 20 years I ken what I'm talking aboot... 😂
0:10 that guy is my spirit animal
"Don't lick me laddeeeeEEEH" words to live by
au contraire, never turn your nose up to a good licking.
@@scottmatheson3346 especially for your wee laddie!
"I beg your pardon, sir, I appear to have squashed your chanters."
2:28 glad to see Antony found a new officer to brood under.
Playing the bagpipes when sending men off to dangerous missions.....that's soldiering
This reminds me of a clip from the movie The Longest Day
[Millen plays the bagpipes as British troops march toward the Germans]
Pvt. Clough : There it is, he's at it again! Have you ever heard such a racket in all your life?
Private Flanagan : Yeah, it takes an Irishman to play the pipes.
It always makes me laugh
It's especially funny because Flanagan was played by Sean Connery, well known Scotsman.
@@odysseusrex5908 very true I love the scene when he tells at the Germans before leaping head long into the channel and also the part where they are going on about the beach masters dog lol
"I ambushed you with a bagpipe!" -ol Sean still hasn't learned to check his surroundings
If that guy is playing the bagpipes, I'd talk after the first 3 notes 😅
5:12 asking a piper how he stands it lol
Spears claims his loyalty faltered under Leroux's torture, but he was just trying to save Munro's feelings, this, this was the moment.
Now that's earplugging.
00:07 - 00:14
The seating, one-armed, French-speaking Royal Navy officer seems to be sooo done with the bagpipes' sound. 😅
El Mirador (which translates as "the lookout", "the viewpoint", or "the belvedere")
Out comes bagpuss at the end😂❤
The ancient Highland bagpipes lead many mighty Scottish regiments into to battle, a remembrance of home in a foreign land. The piping in that clip was the worst I've ever heard. The real pipes are magnificent
Munro was always a little over the top. Hogan had brilliant repartee with Wellington and Nairn had brilliant repartee with Sharpe. I don't feel that Munro ever fit quite as well.
Have they remastered these Sharpe to HD ?
Sean Bean looks very young for someone who keeps dying.
He keeps getting reborn lmao
On the rewatch of this, well it occurs to me that Sharpe is a sergeant in a scottish regiment in the India books, or at least in the second book IIRC but even so given how frequently he's exposed to its, he's probably been thoroughly desensitized to the pipes
No Sharpe was never in a Scottish regiment.. unless he was a QMS in a middle regiment.. in India he was in the 33rd 'Havercakes' which recruited in Yorkshire, then went straight AFAIK from them to the 95th Rifles. After that the small group he led were absorbed into the fictional South Essex.
Between being a redcoat sergeant and green coat, he was a liet. in a Scottish regiment. Rules said he couldn't stay with the unit he was a serg in. This didn't work out as Scottish very very clannish and resistant to English officers and he was still learning ways of being an officer. I think it was the book Siege.
@@forlornhope7121 Ah, yes he joined the 74th whose colonel was a friend of Hector McCandless. Not sure if he was an Ensign or Lieutenant there.
@@julianmhall he was an ensign, he doesn’t actually get promoted when he goes to the rifles , the just use 2nd lieutenant instead
You never get desensitised to the agony bags, quite the opposite. They are instruments of torture, the more you hear them the more you want the torture to stop. I spent 12 years as a musician in the British Army, albeit as a reservist. I remember my first beating retreat, with massed bands, pipes and drums, I thought it is wonderful. Then as the years progressed, the more I came to loathe the bagpipes.
I just noticed Mark Antony is attending this meeting.
Your right. Didn’t realize it was him.
It’s funny, even the scotch guards can’t take his playing! lol 😂
Scots or Scottish for people. Scotch is whiskey
@@rock07879 At the time Scotch, Scots and Scottish were used interchangeably. It's only in recent times that people have decided, for no particular reason it seems, to get a stick up their arse about "Scotch".
This is the reason Scotch whiskey (Scottish whiskey) is called Scotch. In chess we also have the Scotch (Scottish) game.
"Scotch" is a synonym of "Scottish" and there's a fair chance an early 19th century Scotsman, far from objecting to it, would have used the word to describe themselves.
@@markchambers3833 Aye you're right laddie, there's also Scotch mist, Scotch broth and Scotch tape.
C B don't forget the kids game,hop scotch.

Title of that bagpipe piece Munro is playing? Please. My neighbours want me to play it to them....
Playing bagpipes with your ass, now that's soldiering
Brilliant series… except the bagpipes.. 😂😂
Favourite wee detail about this episode is how during the march at the end it's clearly the same piper playing and it unfortunately sounds almost as bad as Mungo here, just not played for laughs. Hard to play well when you're probably the biggest target on the battlefield though...
4:50 foreshadowing shot there.
young Marc Antony!
"Listen to me play the pipes or dangerous mission?".....Ans: Play the pipes sir........end of video.
00:30 - 00:34
Sharpe's version of the woopie cushion.
Quite believable! Never had a lesson.
A whoopie-cushion moment!!! Hah!!!
Did.. Sharpe just sit on a whoopie cushion?
Antony should just send Pullo and Vorenus. Thirteenth never fails.
Monroe: Which would you prefer me to do Sharpe? Play balak nabruga, that’s the Monroe March.. or send you on a dangerous mission?
Sharpe: Er, dangerous mission sir.

@@anndra8687 Ta, didn't quite know how it was spelt. Relying on closed captions is always dicey.
Gee. Who's torturing the family cat?
Ik that was supposed to be the bagpipes played badly…… but it just sounds like bag pipes normally
The thing I don't understand. If the enemy knows the name of the spy, is it still a secret? Why make Sharpe's job more difficult by pretending the cat is still in the bag?
They can't be certain the Frogs know. It's just a strong possibility.
The thing about bagpipes is that I can't tell if he's playing well or poorly.
Yes i do believe that
The quest giver in a video game.
Sitting on bagpipes thats soldiering...
With extreme prejudice.
Yes but why, WHY do the capptions say "applause" in the beginning?
youtube captions can barely deal with non-american accents the bagpipes are probably a total cluster
don't lick me, laddie
sharpe may be the "hero", or at least one of them, but the army is full of highly competent men, including high-ranking officers
When Mark Anthony is in the room….
Well, if French know who he is might as well let Sharp know.
Am I tone deaf for thinking that the bagpipes were played kinda well?
As a lover of the pipes, yes. They were not played well.
How do you stand it? They stuff their ears with cotton! 😂
5:17
that's nonsense.
the scots love that sound ... even played badly
Hey look, it's Marc Antony!
