I will be watching mate , can't wait for Sharpes challenge. Hopefully the battles will be better than the last sharpe episodes. I hear there is a great line from Bean in this where someone says "Sharpe are you going to defeat this massive rebellion?"

Sharpe replies "Well there's no other bugger going to!" Pure greatness with plenty of arses going to be kicked no doubt

Harper is over in India and gets captured, cue Wellington telling Sharpe and sharpe headinf for India with rifle in hand, probably not in green but red uniform and kicking everyone around with war cries and gun shots. Sharpe was only tv series i knew that saw a grown man collasping after a kick to the backside with scores of French soldiers fleeing through fear of being kicked in the jacksie by Richard Sharpre

Of course, salman rushdie (sp) wife is playing the main love item and i must say she looks very sweet indeed

What a breath of fresh air. Better budget, better acting and simmerson and dodd were wonderful bad guys. All in all, quality
