Sharpe's eagle Final

[ComicPhreak]

@ShinigamiTiger99 Hey how come I can't hear no audio with this one?

[Isildun9]

@TheStandofTheLastGuy And i think that if the World was still in the state of Empires that it was before WW1 made the map so bloody complicated, it would be a simpler place.

[turricaned]

@Isildun9 The problem is that all empires collapse eventually either through corruption or good old-fashioned entropy (when the system can no longer sustain itself through lack of resources). Co-operation is really the only sensible way forward, it's just a shame that humans aren't very good at it - and indeed the one time it was tried it was perverted by the people at the top into an empire - which also collapsed.

[Jake4595]

@TheStandofTheLastGuy you want to have less rights and positions in life than the british?

[Rushy1989]

@TheStandofTheLastGuy I fully agree, I'm in the military and I'm very proud of my British military heritage its such a shame we have fallen in to such a poor state suckling off the tit of America. Also the uniforms back then where so amazing puts my uniform to shame.

[GeneralAdvance]

@Rushy1989 you want to go into afghanistan wearing a bright red jacket, ask your CO

[stefansmom]

funny fact major lennox was the commander of the 78th highlanders.. i'm from halifax nova scotia and the 78 th highlanders were the highland regiment at the halifax citadel! awesome!!!!

[Shadowman4710]

You have to give Sean Bean credit. Most actors are lucky if they are defined by one character in their careers. Bean has Richard Sharpe, Boromir, and Ned Stark. William Shatner has played dozens of characters over the decades but will only be remembered as James T. Kirk (with apologies to Denny Crane). Bean's got a whole chestful of characters to define him. That's a real actor.

[Florentineblue]

@Shadowman4710 Then again, those are all virtually the same character. He plays a particular character very well. He knows how to do that character. I love him to death, but I would like to see some variety in his acting. Even in this Sharpe series, his response to any stimulus is either to yell at it or do a kind of weird puppy-dog look like he doesn't quite understand or is new to the situation. It gets a little old in later episodes. I'd like to see the main character evolve and learn some.

[Shadowman4710]

@Florentineblue I would argue that Boromir is a somewhat different character than Sharpe or Ned Stark but it's a fair point. However, if you want to see the man do something completely different, check out a little film called Red Riding: 1974, part of a trilogy set in the north of England during the period of the Yorkshire Ripper. He's absolutely terrifying in it.

[1EvilDogProductions]

This is my favourite of the Sharpe series

[siaobai77]

Can anyone tell me what happened to the Chosen men? Their numbers went down to 3? Excluding Harper and Sharpe. That was what I saw in Sharpe's Battle and Perkins died and there were down to 2. What happened to the rest? Did I get lost anywhere?

[lazylazymule]

@siaobai77

they all got killed off in waterloo. Only Sharpe and Harper are left.

[ashika1009]

Craig is that crazed gambling Old Boy! Gotta be!!

[Ukka68]

The end of this episode is amazing!

[Songsmirth]

Would anyone know of a site that would compare the price of things today compared to the price of things in a given year? Like these men, if I get it right, were paid 40 shillings to sign up. Comparing the cost of living today to yesteryear what would it be? How many shillings to a pound today and what it can buy compared to 1809 and what it would buy then? It often bugs me that I don't get what people are being offered in these times like Pat being offered 100 pounds to betray his king?

[Songsmirth]

Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to share these with us Shinigam. I didn't know they exhisted. A great series like Hornblower. Iron men. :)

[cancontnt]

Thank you for uploading these. Watched them with my son when he was growing up. It is few years since I saw them and I have forgotten the details, so it is great to go back and see them again. Interested to see how many others are spending time watching them.

[Ironzealot7531]

can't believe they're still making these

is 'Sharpe's Peril' the last of them? Because it's getting a bit ridiculous

[Gingrnut]

I LOVE THE END THEME SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SapphireCrusader]

The three most important women to Sharpe:

Teresa=Awesome!

Jane=Whore :-P

Lucille=The Best!

[neckronn99]

@SapphireCrusader

You nailed it. But Teresa has a special place in my heart....

[rockape560]

teresa not ugly but homely and just genuine

[roflrocketrofl]

anyone else think teresa is kind of ugly?

[RuachEish]

@roflrocketrofl No, I dont think Teresa is ugly just boyish of figure and natural without makeup etc.

[CambCelt]

Over the hills, and far away ...

[Harcky100]

@thanh221248 the song is called over the hills and far away

[brent98]

Over the hills and far away by John Tams

[robnaylor55]

@brent98 John Tams added a couple of verses to what is in fact a very old song. The military version goes back to around 1700 at least, maybe earlier. There's an even earlier Scottish version where the last line goes "The wind has blown my plaid away"

[thanh221248]

what's the song at 1.55, i cant remember the name.

[BlackAcebt2]

@BassistDemon. It's Sharpe's Theme by Dominic Muldowney

[BassistDemon]

What is the name of the song when the titles appear at the end?.. Does anybody know, please?... o.O

[TikRiker]

I think my favourite part of this series are the commentors. One person says something rude and offensive, and everyone responds calmly and politely. It's incredible!

[Dippers85]

Correct. The Eagle was fought for and won at the request of a dying officer. Nothing needs to be celebrated. Other than to leave the Eagle on Major Lennox's grave as requested.

The shame of losing the Colors (though it was not the fault of Lennox) has been wiped clean in essence. His honor as an officer, given his past in India, remains intact.

[Theamazinguy]

Wtf? he is just going to leave the eagle there? There's no celebration? no congratulations?

[gt2e]

@Theamazinguy american ??????????

[matt304671]

in the book even though he was married to Theresa , at the time, he still scrogged Josephina.

[666Selck666]

Putting all small political and personal petty differences aside, look at this, a Canadian, Australian, an Englishman and an American. We are all close allies and brothers in arms and if any one of your countries were attacked I would be first in line to fight and maybe die to stop an aggressor. For the honor!

[Rikki0]

As would I, Selck. And as it has ever been. Semper Fi. Vietnam 70-71

[gt2e]

@Rikki0 god bless the viet cong,real men who made real sacrifices for REAL causes,shove your semper fi up your fucking hole the vietnamese ran ye out of it

[ancalites]

Long time since I heard this music. Great series.

Can't wait to see Bean in A Game of Thrones.

[666Selck666]

Honor and Loyalty...There's not much left in the world today.

[richardcadbury]

after nearly a century of leftism, it's hardly surprising...

[DinkiDiDude]

Yeah Goerge Bush, Honorable Honorable man.....you idiot.

[richardcadbury]

That's a non-sequitur

[DinkiDiDude]

Righto lesson in reasoning, you fuck......a 'non-sequitor' is a form of 'illogical fallacy', an illogical fallacy is based upon either wrong reasoning or piss poor argumentation.......I wasnt arguing anything, and my reasoning was aimed at expressing both, that Goerge Bush was a man without honor, and that you are an idiot.

Dont worry your not the only far right blowhard to feign intelligence, speaking of which heres an excellent source for illogical fallacies - Bill Orielly.

[richardcadbury]

You need to calm down.

[Malevolantgoat]

The term is "logical fallacy".

Logical fallacies are by their nature illogical, so I understand your confusion.

Also, I think you'd have a hard time arguing that George bush was a dishonourable man. You could disagree with his policies, but you and I know little of his character outside of government. It is not befitting a gentleman to slander another without evidence.

[Redstar226]

They are called Logical fallacies my good friend...since a its a fallacy in someone's logic...

[sonofcy]

@richardcadbury What a load of BS you talk

[IronbreakerFTW]

Thanks a lot for uploading. Sharpe is amazing. Means a lot to a lot of people.

[crisfire33]

Thanks for uploading this

[DouglasEdward84]

I would have liked to see Leroy again in the series he was ina couple more books but this was his only film appearance

[spiritgirl2796]

Are they just going to leave the eagle right there in the ground?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[neverfearchrisishere]

It's sent back to england after and I believe it makes an appearance in a later book.

[pedronoir72]

No i saw sharpe carry it to the king, in his palace

[freddage91]

That was the prince of wales not the king

[georgehennessy]

Sean Bean is a better actor than Daniel Craig. Weigh in everyone.

[gv1955]

Who's better in bond though?

[georgehennessy]

Sean Connery. By a very wide margin. Although I have to admit, he was too old to play Bond in the last one that he was in.

[gv1955]

And double "0"

Sean Bean who was 006 in Golden eye.

Or Daniel Craig 007 in Casino Royal.

[kjsh987]

@georgehennessy even can do the paper of bodn ten times better than craig.disgracefully did the paper of trevelyan what wasnt bad even

[SapphireCrusader]

@georgehennessy They're both good. There are no perfect actors or actresses.

[MajBlood]

@georgehennessy If Sean Bean was a better actor than Daniel Craig he would be 007 instead of 006.

[Hawkes10112]

@MajBlood They've never chosen 007 based on acting talent alone, but on overall image of the actor. Still you have to admit that Sean Bean as 006 did make for an interesting character, makes you wonder what his take on 007 would be like.

[MajBlood]

@Hawkes10112 Yeh because Daniel Craig is the first thing you think of with his blonde hair. Honestly man, image has nothing to with it. They never try and make the actor match Bond's appearance in the novels.

[Hawkes10112]

@MajBlood Image as in the publics overall perception of him, not his apperance. Take actors like Roger Moore and Pierce Brosnan, both had been big hits with the public with their previous TV shows and had showed they could pull of being charming and a ladies man quite easily, pretty much what people expected of Bond..

Main reason to why so many were against Daniel Craig, he didn't quite have that "Bond" image most people picture, same with Dalton, and both brought a lot to the character.

[MajBlood]

@Hawkes10112 Nonsense, you yourself said both Craig and Dalton did it without being big actors before yet you say that is the reason Bean would not be Bond? And don't forget, Sean Connery, the biggest Bond of all, was unknown before he was cast.

[sparkprimeprime]

@georgehennessy it's weird, he plays a hero in sharpe yet every other role i've seen him in, he's a coward

[adventussaxonum]

@sparkprimeprime - I wouldn't call Boromir a coward!

[lorenzooviedo]

@sparkprimeprime Boromir is not a coward!

[Sarastro42]

@georgehennessy Agreed. And I personally love Craig as James Bond. Wish they'd put Bean as a Bond villain again.

[TitusTheShibaInu]

@Sarastro42 They did in Goldeneye. He was a villain 006

[Sarastro42]

@TitusTheShibaInu Aye and as such Alec was one of my favorite Bond villains. What I wish is that they'd revisit the idea of Bond versus a rogue 00. That would be need.

[Songsmirth]

@georgehennessy Whose Daniel Craig? :)  Songs

[saborknight]

@georgehennessy yeah, but who does daniel craig play??? i cant spot him in any of these movies...

[Shadowman4710]

@saborknight He plays Lt. Gibbon, the officer who duels with Sharpe near the end of the film. He's very young in this since it was done in the early 90's.

[OnionMan]

@Shadowman4710 No, Craig plays Lt. Berry, Gibbon's best friend.

[CEP00000]

i luv the sharpe books nd films, i only wish there were more out there!

[qetuo1000]

whats the order from first to last episodes? i love the sharp's series books.

[ChristInMeA2Z]

look up Sharpe on wikipedia. They'll show you the order.

[FilmMaster3000]

Sharpe's Rifles Sharpe's Eagle Sharpe's Company Sharpe's Enemy Sharpe's Honour Sharpe's Gold Sharpe's Battle Sharpe's Sword Sharpe's Regiment Sharpe's Siege Sharpe's Mission Sharpe's Revenge Sharpe's Justice Sharpe's Waterloo

[spiritgirl2796]

Your missing 2 episods. There are 2 more after waterloo. They are Challange and peril.

[FilmMaster3000]

yh sorry i 4got about em!!!

[sonofcy]

@FilmMaster3000 That I think was the order of the TV broadcasts. With the books I think that "Sharpe's Eagle" came first and "Sharpe's Rifles" was next. From the publishing dates of the books I have.

[sonofcy]

@sonofcy Correction Sharpe's Rifles was actually well down the list. Just looked at some of my others and there are several between "Eagle" and Rifles. Sharpe's Gold was the 2nd one I think.

[peterlesliegordon]

@sonofcy Sharpes Eagle was the first published book in the series, but the author has written several that are chronologicaly before it.

[ragw33d]

it has them on the official website

[Infofan]

Great series!

Thanks for sharing, ShinigamiTiger99!

[39grotto]

best casting ever for sean bean.

really good looking back to see how many of the bit part geezers are now big shots, james bond that dude from bourne. Everthing about it just stinks of quality, songs story acting. Would be good to see Bean in a modern war film maybe bout iraq of afgahn. " its forty shillings .......... """

[ExMachine]

Bravo Two Zero? (admittedly that was Iraq in the 90s)

[ambrelynn]
