I wish I had been able to be an extra in all of these films. Mainly for the resume building. "1994-2008, was killed 216 times during the filming of the Sharpe series."

"are you drunk Mr. Price?" "I am, I am." LOL

yes I will begin to post the rest for all of you who are dying to watch it. Oh yeah MERRY CHRISTMAS adn HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

words couldnt describe it better, you sir are a true music connoisseur!

The opening scene is probably one of the more convincing ones, showing the confusion of a contemporary battle. As Sharpe says to the South Essex before Talavera 'You don't see a battle.. you hear a battle.. you smell a battle..' (the 'Can you stand?' speech).

So great seeing familiar actors in these younger years. Pete Postlethwaite is a legend to me! Rest In Peace and Grace my brother in spirit.

great! thanks again for these uploads brings back a lot of happy memories

Yes, it aired 1995-1998 from time to time on TNT.I fell in love with it. Awesome series!

I'm suggest continuing with the books. The series is great with those with no military experience/interest in the real history (I'm an amateur archaeologist) but the books are not only well researched, they also go into a lot more detail and the basis for all his achievements, the background of each battle and even the people in it are described in an historical note at the back (i.e, Sharpe's Eagle was actually captured by Sergeant Masterman of the 87th Irish Foot at the battle of Barrosa, ...

Thanks alot...i'm here in america and i think i might have seen some of this on the History Ch. a few years ago but never all of it. So glad i get to match it here.

That's what I am wondering as well. I liked that character quite much. He was so sarcastic and funny and very english.

Sharpe is a legend, Bernard Cornwell is a Legend, ShingamiTiger99 is most definately a legend! Thanks for all the uplaods.

What is the piece of music playing in the background as the British are storming the breach? It was also playing in the night attack scene in 'Battle' and whenever I come across a even a fleeting reference to the Napoleonic Wars in books not related to that period of history, it always springs to mind, it's brilliantly evocative.

thanks for putting this up

@BassPlayer60134 - John Tams was quoted in 'Sharpe's Story' as saying that the electric guitar was "a good instrument to represent a cavalry sword", which I presume was a factor in its inclusion. Much as I love the brilliant John Tams, though, I agree that it still sounds a bit daft. ;)

Sean Bean is a great actor to play Sharpe, even though he's from yorkshre not essex it's very well done. They should of done more.

When I watch this show I get lost in that era.

(cont...) which he later wrote about in Sharpe's Fury) Horse Guards is a building in London used as offices of the Commander-in-Chief of the Forces until 1904. But as with all things linked to politics (especially pre- 20th century) people who were part of it were at times corrupt. Sharpe did leave India with wealth but he ended up a poor again in 1807 (where he's sent on a mission during the Bombardment of Copenhagen in Sharpe's Prey) I won't say how though as its a big spoiler for the books.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!! AND THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting Sharpe's Company!!!!XD PLEEEAASSEE POST The rest!!! PLEASE!!!XD

Wow！ It's GREAT! I have been reading this fiction！

Damn I bet that roll in the hay was uncomfortable as hell

"oh...he looks dead to me!"

Sean Bean...how I love thee!! I can't believe this series is unknown in America or that Sean Bean's never received and oscar. Kind of like Clint Eastwood

you are a legand for putting these on

in the book he was gazetted captain, but it was refused two years later by horse guards because they had the name wrong

thanks for uploading dude, you rock! these are good movies! also isnt that boy at the end a little young to be in the army let alone an officer?

I think the sons of rich families were bought a commission as an ensign at a young age and sent to begin learning their profession. They were only given the more menial roles of command, however.

The risk of infection for a wound is also a key factor in the descion to amputate, even today amputations for things like diabetes and flesh eating bacteria are quite common

I believe Col. Fletcher is also 1st Lt. Buckland from Horatio Hornblower Mutiny, portrayed by Nicholas Jones.

The girl I left behind me. About 50 years later I think.

Thankyou for the Uploads - anything to remind people of thier patriotism is a good thing IMO.. Shits on most modern "entertainment".. Regardless, Gawd bless ya sah!

"Oh, He looks dead to me, You just sliced off his arm!"

You gotta love Sean Bean.

after the holidays seeing as how whenever I try to use movie maker, it wont make any clips for me.

Yeah well 1812 was Napoleon's 'Annus Horribilis' given the slight hiccup of his foray into Russia..

(cont...) as captain, but with Lawford gone Rhymer was given his captaincy. Therefore he was demoted to second Lieutenant and put to quartermaster's duties because he refused to accept captaincy in the ''Fever Islands''. Although the only ranker he discussed this with was Harper, who is classed as his best friend, despite the huge gap in rank. I'm not sure about the defeat of Wellington by French Marshals, but it is true that several commanders were beaten by the marshals before Bony's arrival.

@BattleSnake75 It looks like in the shows he carries a light cavalry saber. In the books, they specifically say he preferred the heavier straight sword of the heavy cavalry, the better to knock aside enemy weapons. I cannot be certain, my memory is a bit hazy on that and more knowledgable people may correct me.

This was the best film.

I don't remember seeing Rifleman Cooper in the later Sharpe films. Did he buy the farm at some point, and I just missed it?

I love you i love you i love you My library has the other parts but not this one so i depseratly want to see it. THANK YOU

You gotta love the 18th & 19th century British military.

Many thanks and honor to you sir !

The order goes Rifles, Eagle, Company, Enemy, Honour, Gold, Battle, Sword, Regiment, Siege, Mission, Revenge, Justice, Waterloo, Challenge, Peril. Damn, there's a lot of them! :D

Hard to imagine that Mr Price is the Great Great Great Great Great Great Grandfather of Captain John Price (COD: Modern Warfare series)

I like the description of this video

Shinigami: THANKS! (no other way to watch this in Spain!)

i would like to watch all these "sharp" movies...wich one comes first and etc?

Thx guys - jup, as I continued watching the next parts it became more evident hehe. But myself not knowing the books, when I started off with this episode here I was WTF : )

@bh5496: Don't know about the town, but yes, David Troughton WAS replaced as Wellesley - but only due to illness. He was replaced with Hugh Fraser, AKA Captain Hastings in Poirot

I'm P'd off they have zoomed it to widescreen for the new Blu-ray release. Sharpe was shot on 16mm film and framed for 4:3 TV...the new transfer loses a slight bit of information from the top and bottom of the screen (mainly bottom). Admittedly it is an improvement as regards picture quality (not as good as Sharpe's Peril which was shot using 35mm film), if still a little grainy, but the colours, scratches and dirt have been improved greatly. Just such a shame about the widescreen hatchet job.

@BattleSnake75 Sharpe carries a straight-bladed heavy-cavalry sword, but the regulation sword for an officer of Light Troops is the 1796 Light Cavalry sabre. Both nasty weapons, but Sharpe prefers clubbing to precision slashing. :)

actually a mixture both, I would say my two favorite subjects are the evolution of man - the Neolithic (stone age) and historical/industrial archaeology

Picton didn't wear a top hat and suit to EVERY engagement, that was only at Waterloo

plenty of electric guitars in russian version of three musketeers as well 1977

@kumagamesclan: He's a bloody captain IN the bloody Rifles!! What else would be be carrying?!

I think you'll find it's used in LOADS of movies :P :)

@9:25 Seems to me that most people in this era spent their time bickering about who was of higher station. "Who are you?" "NO U!" "I asked first." "YOU'RE TALKING TO A LIEUTENANT!" "I'm a General."

Often when two lieutenants of the Royal Navy met for the first time it wasn't long before the question "What is the date of your commission?" was raised. Thus they immediately established who was the senior lieutenant of the two.

he had a french lover in the last india book she ran off with some it was all jewels from the sultan of tipoo, its also where he actually got his gazette then he shacked up with a lords wife & he had a house bought for them in london then she died in childbirth, the rest was spent on bickering lawyers after he was taken to court by the lords family

I thought I saw colonel lawford in Sharpe's Regiment but with the left arm missing, not the right.

does it matter which Sharpe to watch first ie: Sharpes rifle,eagle, company. If so what is the order?

its completely different. Cornwell does a tremendous amount of research before writing each one and the scene where he worries about promotion is neither a confrontation with Nairn, nor in front of his men. His worry is also explained where as here its only explained by the sentence 'With Lawford gone, I am but a captain of sufferance'. in the book you learn why it is such.

@Norguy77 i love that game, whats ur steam name?

@TowerHamletsNeil He's actually not that hungry in the books. He goes for a captaincu yes to secure it he takes the eagle. But all his other promotions have been just through his merit. He doesnt nessesarily go looking for it.

@Norguy77: Can your PC HANDLE Napoleon Total War?!

Let's then say he was very islish. As he came from one of the islands ...

I'd suggest reading the book

Now,correct me if I'm wrong (which I'm not) but in the last part, Sharpe said that he needed to get the French Eagle to *CONFIRM* his captancy (become a captain)... why now should he lose that just becaus Colonel Lawford lost a arm? (the obvious being that he captured the eagle to secure his rank).... am I just picking faults here, or is there a legitimate / army regulational reason?? :)

@Norguy77 oh me too, this show why i basically forced my brother to get the Peninsular DLC

quick question, is the guy at 8.50 meant to be harris, or did they run out of actors

what could be so bad right after the injury that slicing off his arm would be better? what did harper see?

big overlap with cast of hornblower

Horse Guards is in London. They're in charge.

Love you ShinigamiTiger99! :D

@notoriouslizw Actually they played this series in America back in the 1990s on PBS. As for Sean Bean never getting an oscar well, there is no accounting for taste.

I don't think it would actually be possible to cut off an arm with a sword. Certainly not without a long swing. The shoulder is an incredibly strong joint. Also, why is Picton always shown to wear civilian clothes? I thought it was only at the Waterloo campaign that he did so, and that it wasn't his own choosing.

the man who sleep in his bed while being attacked by the french? XD Yeah im a hornblower fan myself..
