He did yeah, but in the book it was explained that he had noticed the picture of the officers wife, looked like his Mother, when he had stolen the silver frame, so decided to take the picture out and hide it in his shako.
Simmerson is portrayed as slightly comic on screen (especially in the ridiculous Sharpes Peril cobbled together from about 4 different books) which has just aired in the UK. But in the novels he is much more of a ruthless character.
"One at a time please lads..." Lol gota love Obadiah -- Probably the best Sharpe yes. The one thing I'd complain about is the whole Obadiah's mother thing -- suddenly she's just there in his hat and it all seems a bit random, in the novel it's much better explained, and you get a deep look inside Obadiah's mind. Still bloody great TV though, they don't make em like this anymore -- as the other year's appalling resurrection proves.
In thebook he dtill keeps a pic of his mother in his shako doesn't he?
Btw wot a guy is hakeswill, all the badguys on sharpe are like cowards, i mean i any1s seen sharpe's sword i always feel sooooo embaressed 4 Simmerson, he is like a babbling babie at the end
I think this is the best Sharpe actually. The next one after this is pretty damn good as well. The other really good one is where Sharpe has to defend the fort and they throw lime in the enemy soldiers eyes.
Bloody good series though. Sharpe's Waterloo made me so sad.
Yeah.... Hagman and Harris dying sucked... It sucked when Perkins died in Sharpe's Battle too...but what ever happened to cooper and isiah tonge? they just dissappeared...
with all due respect, do you actually shoot rifles, if you havent fired it how can you know, it fires seven balls all of them going not in a straight line but all over the place so its pretty damned easy to miss. if it had been a baker rifle. he'd of killed him
when Harper shoots his gun, he hits two people, hakeswill and some poor random redcoat. A third person, behind both of them, is holding a painting. He looks like a character out of some retarded cartoon when he looks back and forth and then darts away.
oh ok, sometimes when someones seen people die in front of them or been thrown back by something they believe that they also have been hit, and when they realise they aint dead a second later they move on. i think he did look a bit of a fool swaggering in tht mannner.

You are right. The other officers are noblemen, but Sharpe was raised from the ranks. He learned how to fight on the streets of England. Harper says Sharpe "fights dirty".
My favorite part is when Sharpe finally sees his little baby girl Antonia for the first time ever, so touching, poignant and heartbreaking - plus so sad because Sharpe gets sent off to battle and only sees his daughter one more time in his life! Great clip and bless you! I'm going to subscribe to all your clips from now on! Your're in Brazil - so say hello to my friend Dani Chatterly! Colleen in California
thx so much for the vid, first time EVER seeing Richard Sharpe and his side kick Harper in action, still reading the books, currently on #7, Sharpe's Havoc, go sharpe!!!!
bye the way, this actor, Sean Bean? does a great job, he rocks, full of intesity, right on man.
Hello there! I'm reading Sharpe's Havoc too! I love the books, I often find them more interesting than the series mostly because Sharpe lacks any kind of moral there lol But the show is great in its own. Like you, I also found it great to see Sharpe and Harper in action! And, yes, that is Sean Bean! I still can't imagine a blond Sharpe, but Sean impersonated him perfectly anyway no matter the color of his hair =D lol Sorry about my poor English. *Brazilian hugs*
I love the books too and have just finished the one where he goes to Denmark. From Sharpe's tiger to that one, which one would you say is your favourite.
It's hard to choose one, but I'm partial to Tiger (because it was my first contact with Sharpe)and Trafalgar (I love Commander Chase). However, I could say that Sharpe's Triumph is my favorite. The battle of Assaye with the attack of the Highlanders of the 78th and Sharpe saving Wellesley' ass is unforgettable!
Yeah i would have preffered to read the books before the television series as it would have made me appreciate the books alot more. Trafalfar is mad, it is a romance and an action with out the degree of smut that you would find in most romances. But i loved the battle scene! I remember reading Sharpe's triumpth (assaye) and it didnt contest to the other books as well, but when it reached the battle and post of the battle it intrigued me alot.
yeah thanks....i have been watching sharp now on bbc america...love them by the way...anyway thanks for posting...i to plan to buy the dvd sometime this year....yea!!!
Woooo! Finally some videos of Sharpe on YouTube! The pictures with music behind that lots of other have done are good too but this is great! Kepp it up your a legend!!!
Hey, Joel, thanks! This is not even a fan vid, but I'm glad you liked it anyway. I just uploaded this part of Sharpe for a friend of mine to see what he looked like on the screen. Have you read the books, by the way? They rock! That is how I found out the tv series, after reading the books. Now I'm working on real Sharpe's fan vids, or music vids, so keep an eye on my profile to see them soon. A huge Brazilian hug to you!
yer kn ew it was from an actual episode lol (sharpes company i think? its been a while since i watched them) yes i read the books before i saw the tv series and loved them both - sean bean is a great actor!
Hahah yes, it is Sharpe's Company!! I'm trying to buy the full dvd box set ( I only have the first three movies), but the price is too expensive for me. The shipping cost to Brazil is even more expensive. Anyway, I've just uploaded the first version of my first Sharpe fanvid, as promised. If you see anything odd in it, please, tell me! *hugs*
Oiê! Eu amoooo Bernard Cornwell, mas só comecei a ler Sharpe em Dezembro do ano passado. Agora estou viciada!!! E depois que descobri os filmes pra tv, o vício ficou pior ainda, apesar de eu preferir os livros (ainda acho estranho o Sharpe ser louro e o Harper ser tão velho no seriado da tv o.O). Anota meu MSN aí: haleth1980@hotmail.com Agora deixa eu voltar pra o trabalho! Lore aka kwannom
OK it's just me or Harper killed a guy and wounded Obadiah with one shot!!!!
