- This was made for a friend of mine, thus my choice of scenes might not be the obvious one (for example, the "jump" scene is missing), but I assure you, those were the scenes best suited for the task at hand. Unfortunately, there are only so many priceless moments you can cram into 15 minutes of video.
No copyright infringement intended; the material unfortunately isn't mine, you know the deal.
"Three captains, no less, captains who would not agree even on the color of an orange."
I salute you, Sir Pellew, you have just found another way to kill your enemies, for I just died of laughter.
The amount of British turned my coffee maker into a teapot.
Turned it into a double ration you mean .
@@dartanion0075 no.. but that would be soldiering
I just realized he's going to owe Lieutenant Bracegirdle a clean white shirt after that incident on the fireship.
I really loved the hornblower series whish there was more
Yes, now would be an excellent time to follow up with his later years like the escape from France and his tenure as an Admiral.
HankenORIGINAL, I could not agree with you more. If only!
Gruffudd has repeatedly said he'd love to keep playing Hornblower. I keep hoping someone will magically appear to finance more one these days.
Pumpkin Hill Financing is the problem. These movies are exceptionally expensive to make.
@@normanbraslow7902 Yep - Gruffudd was hoping 'Forever' would make him enough money to finance another set of movies. Unfortunately it got cancelled. All of the props, costumes, and models were auctioned off too, so if anyone wanted to make more movies they'd have to start from scratch. Really unlikely, especially considering costume dramas have been a low ebb recently. Nobody wants to take the financial risk.
That's a great series about real men. Very inspiring. RIP Kennedy
Yes, love the series precisely for its portrayal of real men with real problems under real pressure.
Mutiny and retribution are my favourite pair of episodes.
The Duchess and the Devil up there too
Love this show, wish they made more of them.
They had a reunion on RUclips. I'll link it.

@@SLOTHSRIDEUNICORNS where?
Reed Richards and Doctor Who. In this one!
best things about the scene 1:10 is that he basically gets the best outfit possible by trading away his rations for the foreseeable future - and then most of it ends up burnt, full of soot and smoke and completely drenched in seawater.
When the Major complained about sleeping arrangements the look on Bush at Hornblower reply🤣
“I thought he was sharing your bed?”
“He is.”
That shit was hilarious.
@@BlackDiamond2718 The major was of nobilety I think or had circle around that hense he was pompus and both Hornblower and Bush put him down but he took hint and turned out to be one tough guy the crew could count on(when he got his high horse off lol)
@@Wenchework war is not luxurious. Reminds me of what he said. “…But we are at war and this isn’t a pleasure craft.”
@@BlackDiamond2718 Yeah what he said was tru but back then nobilety could be quite snobbish
I loved the friendship between Archie and Horatio and the father/son between Pelew and Hornblower.
Hated nithign more than Bush's death, such a wonderful man and a lieutenant :(
Holy shit that smile oof 1:45
ikr
the man with the hatchet gets the choicest cuts, after all.
Pellew's face at 3:16 XD
Paul mcgann the 8 th doctor joined the war I guess
Over the rail Horatio! Over the rail! Feed the fish!
Love this montage!
Man got 1000 pounds for capturing the ship, then later he was skittish about paying 15 for a whole new uniform
*Plasters (I forget his name) shovels poop on Archie's shoe, me snickers*
*Horatio gets stuck in the stirrups and the horse keeps walking, causing him to hop in a circle, me bursts out laughing and almost falls into the dung cart*
Should have had the scene when jack got shot by the captain after the duel
Barbaric
"Exceptionally fine shot sir. If I may say so sir."
@@Herr_Kommissar Jack Simpson was a barbarian. Perfectly appropriate.
@@pumpkinhill4570 Especially since if that was a musket vs a rifle at a obscene range-for a musket. If a rifle...different matter.
@@SarahB1863 Kind of guy Sharpe would have kneed in the nuts.
with all the bromance, no wonder all the pillows have got teeth marks in them
I can't believe Archie Kennedy became John Doe.
Very different from the books and G Peck.
Well, not that different from the Young Hornblower books, which are the ones covered by the series. The 2nd season in particular is a surprisingly faithful adaption of Lt. Hornblower, Archie Kennedy's existence notwithstanding. Is _is_ quite different from the 50's movie. Some particularly good quotes aside, I consider that a good thing.
I think the thing is that the Young Hornblower books are fairly different from the rest of the book series.
50s one was actually a dreadful Hollywood love story, with some very great Naval battle scenes.
Adaptations still have to be made, especially when several chapters and books are combined. They did a great job nonethelesa
Yes - and that's why the first four A&E Hornblower movies did so well, both in the UK and in America. The book Hornblower is solitary, stoic, and unemotional - may make great reading but it makes him inaccessible as a movie character. That's why the addition of Archie Kennedy in the A&E series was so genius - the writers gave Horatio someone to talk to, to contrast his personality, and to showcase just how awesome of a character Horatio is.
Unfortunately, the Forester estate didn't like such a non-canon character being so popular, so they demanded Archie be written out. He was...and the third set of movies was a dreary mess as a result. Without the character of Archie, Horatio came across as cruel, distant, and just plain unlikeable. It did so poorly in the ratings that there's no real calling for a fourth set of movies, not even by fans of the first two sets.
These are not my favorite
Favorite scenes of the uploader. Duuuh
