After watching all of the Sharpe Series several times and again recently I've notice the number of famous English actors that are in the series that i didn't notice before playing small roles. Like Daniel Craig and Mark Warren
When I noticed Daniel Craig in Sharpes Eagle as one of Simmersons lieutenants. I knew it was him... but thought it wasnt, because the only other work I know of him, was when he was relaunched as one of the James Bond. Kinda neat to see an actor, before theyre uber famous
For something similar to this, all you have to watch is the American series THE UNTOUCHABLES. Just to name a few of the actors: Jack Lord, Lee Marvin, Ed Asner, Barbara Stanwick, Robert Redford, James MacArthur, Elizabeth Montgomery, Dick York, Pat Hingle, Jack Elam, Lee Van Cleef, Telly Savalas, Ricardo Montalbán, Gavin MacLeod, Richard Jaeckel, George Kennedy, Nehemiah Persoff, Alan Hale...
Those Congreve rockets certainly were! It wasn't until 1844 and the coming of the Hale rocket that any real accuracy was possible (the Hale was a spin-stabilised type).
i like how Sharpe was probably like "okay rocket troop, you guys just suck too much....just stand at attention, within sight of us, while me and Sgt.Harper get the chosen men together and have an good ol fashioned game of football" :P
Sharpe's Company is missing. So this is NOT in chronological order and NOT all of them. Viewers will wonder who "that guy that hates Sharpe" is because there's a whole chapter missing.
There is an episode with Haksewell before Sharpe's Enemy. I think it's the one with the Siege of Badajoz, however I'm not sure what the episode is called.
Lack of meritocracy, amazing the British Army conquered so much... I guess a question of who is least incompetent back then....the enemy prob even worse...
The navy was a meritocracy for the most part. Army rank was bought and paid for. Wellington was one of the few officers who attended a military academy. French that is.

And Peter Postlethwaite.

Plus Mark Strong; Liz Hurley; and Brian Cox. Brian is one of my favourite characters. His coat buttons up tight over a number of duties. 😅
Daniel Craig! Wow!! Did'nt notice him! Who did he play?
"Right hand up to God, Sharpe." - "That's your left hand, sir." rofl!
"Who is this fool" that's what we were thinking Theresa.
One that doesn't know soldering.
"Given that you wrote this book before arriving in Spain, it shows remarkable confidence." Amazing mockery :)
hah, I've been watching these movies while playing empire total war
lit what im doing now lol 10 years later
@@squeesmyth9025 idem but with napoleon tw
4:54
And this is why she was made for Sharpe. She's as fearless as he is. ❤
anyone else expect teresa to say "hello boys" as she appeared from the smoke, dropping kit as she went?
Sir Augustus is a fop but he is far less toxic than Simmerson
God, he's got to be tired of people asking if he's the man Wellington raised from the ranks. "Yes, I'm not a lord, get over it."
I like how sharpe adresses his comment about his lateness only to wellington.
Those Congreve rockets certainly were! It wasn't until 1844 and the coming of the Hale rocket that any real accuracy was possible (the Hale was a spin-stabilised type).
1:41 - I love Sir Augustus's face, as if to say... ''oh shit... the wife'' lol
I like how Teresa come walking out of the smoke, taking her off her sword in her cape in her pistol belt !!!
Yum! A fine woman in every way!
They used that house (at 2:55) before I think. In the first movie, where Sharpe blows it up just as the French enters it.

This makes me want to play Sharpe's enemy part 3
“They play Mary hell with the morale of poorly led men, sir.”
“Scared you, did they?”, asks his CO.
“I was terrified, sir.”
The banter is fantastic 😂
Merry hell NOT Mary!!
you know, he does kind of look like Prince Charles
This makes me want to play Age of Empires 3!
when i watch these video's i am amazed wellington achieved anything surrounded by fools
Hey, it's Prince Charles. :D
Army Rugby. Otherwise known as Anything-goes-ball or Anyball.
this is totaly irrelevent but i can hear a fight outside between some youths and i'm scared it'll end badly...well that's London for you...
And...? Are you still alive? Are them kids calmed down now? Been about 9 years ago I was in London.

That would be Sharpe's Company.
