It's noticeable that Jane says thank you while Sharpe is still working what is the right thing to say.

The purchase system was abused, certainly, especially by extremely wealthy wanna be soldiers. However, the rank system in the British Army was very very strict. A captain could not hope to gain a permanent promotion to Major unless a Major was either killed or left the service. The Major...who probably paid through the nose to get into the officer corps and then purchase his way up the chain would expect to get some recompense. Remember, the ranks are a pyramid. For every Ensign, there are a lot fewer Leutenants, for every Lt, fewer Captains, fewer Majors than Captains and on and on. When a vacancy occurred at the higher rank, it was usually filled by a brevet, or temporary promotion. Sharpe received several. When an arrangement was made with the officer leaving, his replacement would take the permanent rank and the Brevet would step down to his prior rank. A man could not simply step up and buy a Colonelcy. One bypass was for an extremely wealthy man to form his own Regiment (as Simmerson did.) He could then appoint his own officers, usually relatives or friends. However, if an officer proved to be a total incompetent or a coward, he could be removed and would NOT be able to sell his rank...he was out. Of course there was another reason for Britain to set up a system where the officers were usually rich or titled...such officers were less likely to stage a French style Revolution against their own class. Today it seems inconceivable but in the 18th and 19th Century monarchies lived in terror of being overthrown. The beheading of Charles I stuck in the English mind for centuries.

Calling out a rude brat in uniform for harassing a crippled veteran and just waiting for him to challenge you so you can beat seven kinds of shit out of him? That's being some good soldering.

I'm glad they changed the way Frederickson and Sharpe's friendship went in the show. In the show, while not exactly happy, they get over their gripe. In the books, Frederickson refuses to forgive Sharpe and gets posted to Canada. I mean, I like the friendship between Sharpe and Harper, but Frederickson and Sharpe were a great fit.

Same.

A classic "Oops" moment. As the old saying go's "Don't be calling out them what are strangers to you" (or as the Klingons would put it in the next universe over "Knowing your enemy is the first rule of war"!)

4:29 That drop of the handkerchief was so obvious and so humiliating for Bamphfield.

Moral of the story: Don't issue challenges when you don't know your opponent. Attacking the Favourite Officer of the Prince of Wales as well as the Duke of Wellington is not a good idea for your career advancements...

Only if you are still alive AFTER the duel!!!

He sounds like Wing Commander The Lord Flashheart, from Blackadder.

Spittling into the face of a superior officer, that´s presently Frederickson :P

Been waiting for this one for a long time.

Palmer "Your opponents name?" Frederickson "Sean Bean" Palmer "Is that the same Sean Bean who dies in every movie?" Bampfylde "I think I like my chances here, we shall proceed with the duel!"

And then Bampfylde discovers WHY Sean Bean dies in every movie -- and why there's one notable exception to that rule.

Avengers: We brought a hulk Sharpe: I brought myself, oh and Harper with Mr Nock's gun. Avengers: Sorry to bother you sir.

Using a fusible metal alloy used to create a permanent bond between metal work pieces, that’s what I call soldering.

I see what you did there.

You could play this scene easily with a laugh track.

Drinking white wine like a bossman. Now that's soldiering.

Coming from the ranks and giving gentleman lectures on how to be . That's soldiering

I laughed so damn hard forgot the episode lol. when a punk new officer meets a Solder. NOW that's Soldering. lol sorry had to.

Soldiering?

Sharpe was looking at him like a lion deciding whether to eat or play with it’s food.

I like how Cpt. Fredrickson grin/smirks Sharps way (1:01, 1:29 and 2:55) knowing Sharpe well, and enjoying the thought that the Col. is probably going to start reeling out the rope to hang himself. A real salty, he doesn't care of repercussion, openly mocking the Col.(1:44) He told Sharpe something to that effect when the two first met.

Episode 4, Sharpe's Enemy. When Fredrickson's company of the 60th Rifles is attached to Sharpe and his men, Sharpe inspects the rather ruffy and worn down veterans. When he comments to Fredrickson on their appearance he replies "Men are dirty Sir, rifles are clean!" That's soldiering!!

it's a bit hard to tell when Fredrickson is smirking, his false teeth put his mouth in a perpetual grin, you'd have to look at his eyes to see if the smirk is real. Pretty sure this was a real smirk
