@LeHappiste Interesting that you pick the only siege Wellington failed to win and a minor skirmish that did nothing to prevent Wellington achieving his overall campaign aims as examples of his inabilty to defeat the French where there are so many examples of him beating them, sometimes on his own, sometimes with allies. You just make yourself look foolish when you do that.

@LeHappiste So...what about Rolica, Vimeiro, Grijo, 2nd Porto, Talavera, Bussaco, Torres Vedras, Fuentes de Onoro, Cuidad Rodrigo, Badajoz, Salamanca, Vitoria, 1nd San Sabastian, Pyrenees, Sorauren, Bidassoa, Nivelle, Nive, Garris and Orthez? All battles which Wellington won without the aide of the Prussians, all battles which Wellington successfully defeated the French tactically or strategically.

But its unlikely a different man as PM at that time wouldnt mind killing a couple of hundred chartists

as a Mancunian (ignores the abuse) I think more people should remember the Peterloo masacre

Wellesley may well have been one of the greatest military leaders of all time, but contrastingly his short time as Prime Minister is surely regarded as a failure?

everything in this serie is authentic. The clothes, locations and interior. Then why is the music not played on historical instruments. Historians needs to know more about music performance. But very very good serie. Is it possible to buy this somewhere. I've tried Amazon uk with no luck. Can someone help me.

@LeHappiste Even with no Prussians, Ney still did screw up miserably with his cavalry charge at Waterloo
