Love to re-watch this series, and this song permeates through the entire story with John Tams voice adding to the spectacle. Struggle to watch Sharpes Waterloo, the loss of Harris and Hagman left a mark.
My sister in law and I watched this series from start to finish one after the other. We loved it so much. I looking to get Brit Box so I can watch it again. She has gone on and I will remember her. Loved Sean Bean.
I bought the first 5 seasons on Prime soon as they were available. They switched to BritBox and became unavailable for purchase except by subscription. Got the DVDs of the other seasons. One of the greatest series ever made and super unappreciated.
No war is soldering, forced to go to a country that doesn't want them, going to a country most have never heard of. Most of these was thieves, murderes, gamblers only a few where the privileged.
It could have been such a piece of nonsense, but it's so superbly acted. Bean, O'Malley, Cox, Troughton...what a roll call of talent. It was the Game of Thrones of its day, competent material just elevated to brilliance by its cast.
All the comments wishing for a big budget remake... Have you seen the state of just about every remake for the last 15 years? Please please please, don't remake this series. Leave well enough alone.
Yeah, the budget of Sharpe was less than what they spend to catering in modern day series, but the characters and storylines were gold. No need for remake and That's Soldiering.
Big budget does not equal better. For me atleast for example. My favorite Dune is the campy sci-fi miniseries. Could be nostalgia who knows but i found the low budget endearing to me and made the cast have to be that much better.
@@johnwilson5637Paul McGann was cast originally as Sharpe. He injured his knee playing football some weeks into filming and had to be replaced. Misfortune for him, while being a career starter for Bean. McGann is a first-rate actor, so would have played well the character. It's impossible to determine if anyone could have played better Sharpe, because it's not been tried.
Iconic song for an iconic series and not to forget the iconic sharpe books. I'm from Austria and my children are visiting a french school, but my son and I we love to sing that old british song. In other versions this traditional song traces back to the early 18th century and the times of queen Anne. In Austria we don't have such iconic military songs like this and others (british grenadiers, Marlborough and me....).
Sir, Austria does not have great military songs? Maybe take a look, and do not forget the marches.....www.bmlv.gv.at/download_archiv/pdfs/soldatenliederbuch.pdf
If you look at the collars on the riflemen's jackets they are red, this is part of their history, the original rifle regiment formed during the war of independence was called the Royal American Regiment. Bandsmen in the modern Rifles show their origin by the hackles in their headgear, the large hackle is in memory of the Royal Americans
It makes me sad that we bash each other so much 😢 Two great countries with a great alliance, I hope it lasts! Long live the special relationship! 🇺🇸 🤝🇬🇧

the first sharpe came out when i was 14 and dating a soldier lol . i loved him , i married him and i lost him . painful yes but im so proud. we do not give our armed forces enough support Danny 1972 2008
I think it was great how Sgt Harper and Lt. Sharp were mortal enemies at first, but by the third episodes they had a mutual respect and understanding that Sharp was not like the socially inbred Officer's Corps . He was a true soldier since he was from the enlisted Ranks and was from a lower class than 99% of the officers.
I loved the engineering major as well. I love how wellington pretty much tells that stupid nobleman to keep his name out his damn mouth. Intresting to me that the only officers who had to earn their rank were the engineer corps.....essayons indeed

After the disaster at the bridge that caused Major Lennox to die the South Essex is broken up leaving Captain Leroy with no command, but Wellington reforms it for the Battle of Talavera . Simmerson runs away as expected and Leroy holds the line, repulsing the French with Sharpe's new loading technique and the day is won. Sharpe's Light Company is detached from the South Essex not long after, so Leroy stays in the South Essex and rises to its commander. When Sharpe's company is returned to the South Essex ,, Leroy has sadly died (Sharpe's Honour)
@@dennis2376 He made his money selling slaves, at least TV Leroy did, book Leroy says nothing about where his wealth came from. That doesn't change just because he's fighting for King George.
I remember the first time I heard this amazing song when it first came out. I was 15 years old and it blew me away. Ya I am that old. I had never heard anything like it before. It inspired in me a lifetime love of traditional blues. Thank you Eric Burden and the Animals
this series was amazing, it would have been better with a bigger budget, but man they made it great with what they had, imagine an HBO series with these actors
Seen many such films, TV, video clips. Just thought - once hit, they fall to ground and lie still. Reality was shattered limbs, shocked silence, then howling and swearing in pain and holding or pressing on injured area (both alleviate the pain) - as with any bad sporting or construction trade injury. Very few would die gracefully and quickly. By contrast, Christopher Lee was in a film where director wanted someone knifed from behind to go down with noise and struggle. Lee pointed out that's not what happens. They can't make a sound as lungs punctured. Lee was in SOE in WW2. Cast and crew quiet after he said it
These are films and TV series there is a thing called health and safety, has with anything to do with war person safety comes first. Most of these people have training and know how to fire and pretend to die, swearing might look good but then the rating for what should be a family show changes to adults only. War is war and blood etc might look great but for those of us who have to wear our uniforms it's a pain in the butt to get out fake blood. You don't have to watch these programmes if you are looking for real blood and guts.
If front line, you should fall hit or not. Then you wait for the next line be in front and get up while officers look the other way. Only sensible thing to do in this most silly style of warfare. Hilarious if everyone on both sides had done that from the start...or turned around and shot their own officers. World peace achieved...

I absolutely loved watching this series growing up and love being able to rediscovered it now. Over the hills is a song my brothers and I still sing.
I recommend the books too, if you haven't read em. Very good reading 🙂
John Tams is the singer, played ‘Hagman the poacher’ in the series. A very successful traditional folk singer in his own right.
‘King George commands..’ is also a lyric change from the original (historically) song ‘Queen Anne commands’. Both military piss up songs !
