Sharpe on Drama channel

I've watched the Sharpe series a number of times and have all the books.

For those interested in a younger, very hunky Sean Bean in uniform, waltzing, take a look at this clip from Anna Karenina ?

My husband read all the Sharpe books, and we all watched the series.
He always complained that the character wasn't remotely like Sean Bean. I think he said he should be a dark-haired Cockney?

My daughter and I told him he was missing the point ?

SeanBean He just seems to get better with age I loved the Sharpe series it is so good.
When Sharpe was made into a film yrs ago the opening was in London somewhere and DS1 was at the time serving with Royal Green Jackets and SB came to the opening night the RGJs gave him a guard of honour into the theatre he was so friendly to the soldiers he stayed and chatted to the lads and went to the local pub after the film where he paid the bill for the night,such a great guy according to DS1

I watched the Yorkshire tea advert the other night, and thought that even advertising tea, Sean manages to look rugged, sexy, craggy…..

Mr C has DVDs of the Sharpe series. I have been known to encourage them to be played .

Oh I still love Sean Bean, even the Yorkshire tea advert, just can't get enough of him.

I watched all of Sharpe when it was first broadcast loved Sean Bean in it but that Yorkshire tea advert put me right off him.

I really liked Sean Bean in Game of Thrones, and he is currently playing 'the baddie' in Snowpiercer on Netflix, which I am enjoying after recommendation from DS2. I seem to vaguely remember him in a very gritty drama about a British service man who was captured and imprisoned in Iraq? , eventually escaped/ freed, but came back for revenge on his sadistic jailer. Can't remember the title?
I've never watched Sharpe, travelsafar, thank you for the recommendation.

Ditto Grannybags ?

Oooh...Sean Bean...swoon! ❤️

I won't tell DH ?? he has seen every episode at least twice and read each book at least twice
