That's what's great about this series. The officers' lack of respect for a man who was *not* trained to be an officer is not entirely without merit. There are ways in which an officer *should* conduct himself, which common soldiers are not taught. Sadly, there were many an officer who did not live up to that standard either. Moreover, they forget that one who rises through *merit* is often not beyond teaching, as some officers ultimately do over the course of the Sharpe continuity

We went blow for blow, no one gaining the upper hand I then remembered about the roll of quarters I had. I distracted him with quick left jabs then threw a loaded haymaker to the jaw. He just stopped and looked at me. Then he started laughing, here I am thinking "Oh, f**k, it didn't even faze him. I am so dead". He said that, that was the hardest anyone hit him in a long time.

This is why I love KZread. I've never heard of this show (or the books it's apparently based on) until KZread randomly recommended it to me. Now I can't stop watching these clips Would love to find full episodes

Now thats someone you can look up too, mean af but took the blame so his man didnt just get executed. People follow leaders like that into hell.

Sharpe rose through the ranks to become an officer... That's soldiering Major Dunnet rose throug the ranks to become Prince Regent... That's princing

watched the whole series because of this clip. what a great show

Hahahahaha love the description of them as a 'disrespectful squad'.

I think I have watched so much of this series on KZread I better just watch the entire thing somewhere from the start.

And read the books. So we'll research. Sharpe can be very brutal, like the back of an aze. His lousy start to life made him tough. It also taught compassion. The books are so detailed. And he has so many more adventures.

Even before Vietnam, the officers in green had the sense not to wear rank insignia in case they were spotted by enemy snipers... or recognised by their own troops.

I would watch this show ever morning before school loved it.

Todays childrens programs are worse than the old watershed.

In it’s time I was the best thing on tv, now I have the whole series and films on dvd

I fricken loved this program when I was a student

I watch one video on Gaunt’s Ghosts and now my recommendations are filled With Sharpe videos

I LOVED watching this on satellite...mainly because Sergeant Harper was played by an Irishman.

Unlike some, Sharpe definitely had the makings of a varsity athlete.

The cast in Sharpe was fantastic, Major Dunnett, played by Julian Fellows who would later win an Oscar for his screenplay for Gosford Park and create and write a little tv show called Downton Abbey.

And *that* was the beginning of the beauuuuutiful friendship between Sharpe and Harper.

I read all the books, Sean Bean was perfect for the role.

Brilliant series on a budget, watch it!

Hell ya! Was a great show! -Canada

When I was young in my teens my older Brother, mother and father used to watch this. I always wondered why they liked it and didn't think much of it. I started watching it recently and it's one of the best things I've seen. Sadly my mother and brother are both passed and my father has dementia so it reminds me of them too.

I've binge watched every episode 4 times now, maybe upto 5 years between times. Swashbuckling with mostly buckling. Hornblower was good and ive watched them 3 times but it's nowhere as down and dirty as this series. Great characters you get to know.

Yes good description....down and dirty. That also applies to the books. We smell the blood, gunpowder and swear. And even his relationships are so real

Julian Fellowes. Also won Oscar for Gosford Park script.

It's a TV series, where Sean Bean showed how great he is. It's well worth the watch.

I watched a few episodes on TV years ago. good series. would love to see it again!

I finished CS Forester's Hornblower and O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin series, both, and started the Sharpe series recently as a stopgap for well-written Napoleonic war historical fiction. Cool to see there's a television series.

Is it me or does the picture quality look much better than the DVD releases?

This looks like a great show, i wish it was available in my country or something. There are very few actors at the level of Sean Bean.

It's OK, the Brits are prepared to share Sharpe to the world. You don't even need to be a British colony. Just enjoy historical dramas, action. Studly blokes and a variety of nice woman.

I LOVE THIS SERIES!!!!! Sean Bean is so good. And flipping gorgeous.

Brilliant series, compulsive viewing back in the day.
