"This isnt a proper court martial!" "Oh come on Brand We're doing our best, there is a bloody war on!"

6:46 - one of the best moments in all of the Sharpe series: Ross: Did you see that, Harper? Harper: Me? No, I saw nothing, Sir Ross: Did you see what happened to Colonel Brand? Harper: Oh, he's a funny fish, Sir. I just saw him jump headlong into the Wishing Well. Why'd you think he'd want to do something like that, Sir? Ross: Thank you Harper....

Note to self: Do not sit at any well.

Realizing you made mistakes and died fighting a Rear Guard Action with honor That's Soldiering

I like Sharpe's use of the phrase "prima facie", having learnt it from Harris. He does that all through the series. In "Siege", it's a poetry quote. Hee.

Wearing a Red Uniform in this series is almost as fatal as wearing a Redshirt in Star Trek TOS. ;)

there needs to be more shows where people are knocked down wells

Pushing Colonel Brand in the Wishing Well Now That's Soldiering

I’ll never forget going to Penza in Russia (a 24 train ride east of Moscow) on business to inspect an antibiotic manufacturing plant. Went with my French work colleague. The clients took us to the local Natural History Museum. It was full of French Napoleonic war memorabilia. This was where Napoleon’s army was halted. He couldn’t stop apologising! 😂.

col. brand refuses to give up the ring.. sharpe: what has it got in it's nasty little pocketses?

Poor will ,getting shot at by everyone 😅😂😂😂❤

Considering it's based on no source material at all that brief back and forth between Ross and Harper after Sharpe kills Brand is superb stuff.

This is possibly my favorite episode thank you for posting ❤❤posting

They should make a Sharpe's episode... Sharpe's Law & Order

i say this is the best of the whole series

Fuck yeah. That's Sharpe justice. Straight down the well.

Reading the script, now that's soldiering!

My favourite Bonaparte quote: "Never interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake". Words I live by.

'Pope must have put it in my pocket..' Great move.. blame the /defending/ counsel at your field court martial..

It's funnny, in the novels, Harper never gets injured once until Sharpe's Devil... yet he always gets injured in nearly every episode.. usually in the shoulder

The Wishing Well!!!! hehehehehe^_^

6:32 - WAAAAH HOO HOO HOOEY!

I like to think that Harper was there at that moment because he as going to kill Brand himself if necessary.

The battle scene was brilliant , as usual, but just one thing, it must have been murder for the poor Frenchies trying to scale the walls of the fort lugging the packs on their backs.

Well that's the end of the matter Sharpie

All's well that ends well... :p

MAN THE OYSTER SHELLS

Judge , jury and executioner Takes no prisoner Thats Sharpie

Harper has no wound at 6.55.

@Mattthornz I saw that too! Much of the goofs are hard to spot due to the fast-paced nature of the editing but this one could not get away. In defense, i will say that Ross also kicks the frenchman and the mighty was probably hard enough to break the man's ribs. =] Use your imagination-Now that's soldiering.

I wonder how long it takes for harper to reaload his weapon

Seven barrels, each needing one pistol calibre ball, charge, and wadding, one primer to charge.. a musket would take roughly 20 seconds, knock off a couple for the primer, so seven times eighteen, plus two for one primer.. 2 minutes 8 seconds. Say Harper is experienced and faster than average.. still about thirteen times seven, plus two.. still 1 minute 33 seconds. That's if it was a smooth bore. If it was seven /rifled/ barrels, three minutes?

4:45 FATAL BACKPACK STRIKE

All's well that ends well, eh Colonel Brand?

haha he fell down in the well

Harper got his right upper arm injured and Hagman tied a hanky round it and the next time we see Harper, no hanky round his upper are and not even a tear or bit of blood on his coat sleeve, and how did the French manage to get up the ladders, and Sharpe's men should have thrown the bombs at the French before they even got to the walls of the fort.

Anyone catch that horrible mistake made by the Sharpe directors at 4:40? Ross slashes down on a man's back in a "killing blow" yet you can clearly see that the sword does not even penetrate the man's backpack, on the contrary it barely touches it, yet the -SWING- sound of a sword cutting something happens. A definite low point in Sharpe effects

Aye but hes dam good at shooting.

he probably wanted to get his penny pack which he tossed down it.

yea they only repelled an attack from a force that was at least 4 times the size of them.

No offence ITV but imagine if the BBC had done this series.

When Sharpe pushed his ass into the well, did any yall say to yourselves , "Self"." Now wasn't that beautiful"? Beautiful because, did any of y'all know that dude was sitting on a well? I thought he was just sitting on a wall? Nobody saw that coming. Just saying LOL

4:45 he just attacks his backpack or whatever it was called then

lol sword vs. backpack at 4:44

Just for the sheer hell of it, please tell me what the French soldiers are wearing on their heads ? I love the clips I'm watching and it's probably yeah , little bit low budget and by that im guessing they didn't have enough money for even cheap helmets. They look like chefs or more likely Bakers . Come on now , they look like Bakers and you know it. Help me out with this one. Wth hell is on their heads?

There supposed to be Shakos, the type of cap worn by most armies at that time. Usually they where black with a badge and feather on the front. But like you said, low budget likely lead to them just using cheaply made versions with a white color, though sometimes you will see in the show them using proper colored and decorated caps, specifically for specific types of soldiers.
