1
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:20,879
MAN: Ducos.

2
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,439
Damn it. It's Ducos.

3
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,079
Major Ross.

4
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,399
Hup!

5
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,239
Allez!

6
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,719
En garde! Allez!

7
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,239
(Battle cries)

8
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,719
- Allez!
- En garde!

9
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,239
Allez!

10
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:20,439
(Gunshot)

11
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,999
Arrh!

12
00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:26,919
Attaque!

13
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,639
Yah!

14
00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:42,559
Good shooting, Sharpe.

15
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,079
How the devil did you reload in time
to take on that third fellow?

16
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,519
I was bluffing, sir. It was empty.

17
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,239
- I'm deeply touched you came after me.
- I had no choice, sir.

18
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:57,279
I'm getting married the day after tomorrow.
You're giving away the bride.

19
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,319
Oh, yes, of course.

20
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,079
- You forgot, sir?
- Oh, don't make a fuss, Sharpe.

21
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,079
I've got bigger things to think about
than your wedding.

22
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,519
I've located General Calvet's camp.

23
00:03:07,640 --> 00:03:10,079
Wellington will need to be told about this.

24
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,679
Général.

25
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,519
Sick parade, ready for inspection, sir!

26
00:04:34,280 --> 00:04:36,279
All right. Let's get on with it.

27
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,279
Warts, sir.

28
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,399
He keeps picking them.

29
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,359
Well, don't, or I'll chop your hand off.

30
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,479
Erm...

31
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,999
He's got a big nasty boil on his er...

32
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,199
Oh, bloody hell.
I didn't know you could get one there.

33
00:04:59,960 --> 00:05:01,559
Oh.

34
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,679
He's got the er...

35
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,719
(Whispers)

36
00:05:06,840 --> 00:05:09,319
Pox? What are you whispering for, Harper?

37
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,039
You think I haven't seen plenty of pox
in my time?

38
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,039
Oh, shit.

39
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,439
All right, but...

40
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,799
What's the matter with your face, Harper?

41
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,439
Wee bit of a barney, sir.
You should have seen the other fellow.

42
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,159
- What's the matter with your mouth?
- My mouth?

43
00:05:30,280 --> 00:05:34,079
Yes, that opening between your nose
and your chin. Let's have a look.

44
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,999
- Aye, it's horrible.
- It'll have to come out, Dan.

45
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,599
It'll have to come out. Go and see the surgeon.

46
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:41,639
Dismissed!

47
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,879
Go on, then. On the double.

48
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,919
Patrick,

49
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,959
what's the matter?

50
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,399
I have a wee little bit of a twinge
in my tooth, ma'am.

51
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:56,839
But er...Mr Sharpe says I should go to
the surgeon and have it pulled out by the roots.

52
00:05:59,840 --> 00:06:04,759
Take oil of cloves for the pain, Patrick,
and a little tincture of brandy for sleep.

53
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:06,799
Oh, thank you, ma'am.

54
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,919
Brandy seems a great idea.

55
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,719
- And oil of cloves.
- Oh, yes, ma'am.

56
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,159
Don't be too hard on them, Richard.

57
00:06:20,280 --> 00:06:22,199
For my sake.

58
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:26,319
Hey, nagging me already?
You've only been here a fortnight.

59
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,759
The day after tomorrow,
I'll be able to nag you all the time.

60
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,959
Sir, Lord Wellington wishes to see you.

61
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,639
Hey!

62
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,119
DRILLMASTER: Left, right. Left, right.

63
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,239
Left, right. Left!

64
00:06:49,280 --> 00:06:51,199
- Major Sharpe.
- Sir.

65
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,559
I want you to meet the Compte de Maquerre.

66
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:55,199
Your servant, sir.

67
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,239
Major Sharpe, hm?

68
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,639
I've heard many tales of your bravery.

69
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,919
The Compte is from one ofthe oldest families
of Bordeaux.

70
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,839
He is also a sworn enemy of Bonaparte,

71
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,959
having remained resolutely loyal
to the Bourbons.

72
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,959
Now, the Count has come to us with a proposal.

73
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:17,879
He believes that the people of his area of Bordeaux
are ready to rise up against Napoleon.

74
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,239
Ifwe were to put a force into the area,
prior to our main attack,

75
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,799
he claims he could raise a rebellion.

76
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,599
Now, this rebellion could form
the basis for our invasion of France.

77
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,119
(Ross coughs)

78
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,519
Major General Ross, it has to be said,
is less than impressed.

79
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,879
Oh, no, no. It's an excellent proposal,

80
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:40,079
but I should mention that none of my agents
have reported that Bordeaux is ripe for rebellion.

81
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:47,999
With the greatest of respect, even the best of
your agents would not be as informed as myself.

82
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,119
I'm communicating to you
the feelings of my own people,

83
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,879
their passionate hatred of Bonaparte.

84
00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:00,839
- We should have a look, Ross.
SHARPE: I couldn't agree more, sir.

85
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,879
Ifwe send in a small force -

86
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:07,199
the Prince ofWales's Own Volunteers
and an active commander - I'm sure we...

87
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,599
It's a damned long way
into French territory, Sharpe.

88
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:15,719
Mind you, ifwe had a fortified position as a base,
it would be a different matter.

89
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,359
What kind offortified position
did you have in mind?

90
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,159
Oh, your castle.

91
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,639
- My castle?
- It's clearly marked.

92
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,159
It commands the sea, a major road.

93
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:31,199
It would make a first-class assembly point
for forces raising a rebellion.

94
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:36,239
Give us your castle, Count, and I may see
my way clear to supporting this expedition.

95
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:38,519
(Coughs)

96
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,279
I would give my life for my King,
never mind the castle,

97
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,399
but it's not so easy.

98
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:52,399
My mother and sister, who occupy the castle,
are confirmed supporters of Bonaparte.

99
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,159
They've turned the place over to the military.

100
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,599
Who commands it? What strength?

101
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,519
The commander is Colonel Henri Lassan.

102
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,759
He has fifty men,

103
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,999
but he only needs ten.

104
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,319
The castle is virtually impregnable.

105
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,439
In that case, send in a company of riflemen
with the main force.

106
00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:12,479
No, Sharpe.

107
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,639
We must defer to the Count.
No castle - no expedition.

108
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,359
Perhaps I have been too pessimistic.

109
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:29,839
It's many years since I lived there, but I could
draw maps of our castle from memory.

110
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,279
Maybe, with my help, a strong force

111
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,479
under a resolute commander
could take the castle.

112
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,479
I'm willing to try.

113
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,879
And that is exactly what we shall do, gentlemen.

114
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,199
- Dismissed.
- Yes, sir.

115
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,399
What do you make of him, Ross?

116
00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:01,039
I don't know, but even if he was a complete fool,
I'm afraid we need him rather badly.

117
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,679
Calvet's troops are less than 100 miles away.

118
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,279
Calvet? That puts him on my flank
if I go for Toulouse.

119
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,439
A good job we found a way to call him off.

120
00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:13,479
What better way
than to stir up trouble in Bordeaux, sir?

121
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:17,559
Yes. A bit rough on the poor fellows
we send in to take that castle.

122
00:10:17,680 --> 00:10:20,759
Well, Sharpe's keen to command.
Promote him to colonel.

123
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,239
No, Ross. I've already chosen
the new commanding officer.

124
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:25,519
Oh? Who?

125
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,199
Colonel Horace Bampfylde.

126
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,119
A new arrival at camp. Still in his 20s.

127
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:32,999
A bit young, sir.

128
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:37,599
Bampfylde is a very young colonel
because his father is a very old general.

129
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:42,319
I give him a good command and his father
gives me all the stores I need to get to Paris.

130
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,439
Have a brandy, Ross.

131
00:10:50,560 --> 00:10:52,479
- Evening, Smithers.
- Sir.

132
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,199
This way, Major. I've got you and your lady
a nice place over here.

133
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,319
Good man.

134
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,319
(Laughter)

135
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:13,559
Don't worry about that, sir.

136
00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:16,599
If it wasn't for you,
I'd have lost the other one, as well.

137
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,999
Shall I start you offwith a sherry, sir?

138
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,079
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

139
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:25,999
- Er, Smithers.
- Sir?

140
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,119
You told me I couldn't have that table.

141
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,159
What the blazes do you mean
giving it to some damn major?

142
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:36,119
I'm sorry, Colonel Bampfylde, the arrangements
for ladies' night were made some days ago.

143
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:37,959
Bloody cheek.

144
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,839
Colonel Bampfylde, this is Captain Frederickson.

145
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,879
Your servant, sir.

146
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:48,359
Colonel Bampfylde, may I in turn
introduce the Compte de Maquerre,

147
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,759
presently a personal guest
of Field Marshal Wellington.

148
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:54,719
Compte.

149
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,719
Colonel.

150
00:12:00,680 --> 00:12:02,679
Please, gentlemen, sit.

151
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,399
So, Frederickson, seen much action?

152
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,119
- Too much.
- Hm!

153
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:15,359
Well, I'm sorry to hear you say that.
I can't wait to get cracking, myself.

154
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,199
BAMPFYLDE: Oh!

155
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,559
Hey, you! Call this decent claret?

156
00:12:19,680 --> 00:12:21,239
SMITHERS: I'm sorry, sir.

157
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:25,719
- I'll see what I can do.
- And you've given us the wrong glasses.

158
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,319
You stupid bloody bastard!

159
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,719
Sir! There are ladies present.

160
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,879
So I would have thought
there would be gentlemen present, also.

161
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,559
Pompous young ass.

162
00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:53,679
Rather neatly put, I thought.

163
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,679
Ifthere are ladies present,
gentlemen should be present, also.

164
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,399
Not bad for a man raised in the ranks.

165
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,159
Eh, Compte?

166
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,759
What we French call a "bon mot".

167
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,999
A good thing well said.

168
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,039
What, him? A Johnny-jump-up?

169
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:12,799
Bloody cheek.

170
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:16,119
Probably trying to impress the lady he's with.

171
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,039
Niece of Sir Henry Simmerson.

172
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,079
Simmerson ofthe Horse Guards?

173
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:24,279
Good God! What's a girl of good family like that
doing with a Johnny-jump-up?

174
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,719
Seems women find him devilishly attractive.

175
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:31,879
Damn the claret. Get me a brandy.

176
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:33,919
- Brandy, and be quick about it.
- Sir.

177
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:35,159
Sit down.

178
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,319
For the last time, sir, lower your voice.

179
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:50,959
Evening, ma'am.

180
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:52,999
I'm sorry to see you in such company.

181
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:57,759
Sir, as I seem to have given you some offence,
I shall be happy to give you satisfaction.

182
00:13:57,880 --> 00:13:59,319
Satisfaction?

183
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,159
What does that mean?

184
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,839
It means I'm calling you out, sir. A duel.

185
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,559
Don't be a damned fool, sir.

186
00:14:07,680 --> 00:14:11,599
IfWellington catches you duelling,
you'll be on the next ship back to England.

187
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:13,719
Wellington has his code, I have mine.

188
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,519
What does it take to make you fight me?
Wine in the face?

189
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,959
- Palmer, will you act as my second?
- Sir.

190
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,639
Your opponent's name?

191
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,879
Sharpe...ofthe 95th Rifles.

192
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:32,959
Favourite ofthe Prince ofWales.

193
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:38,279
PALMER: Is that the same Sharpe who shot
three Dragoons while saving Wellington's life?

194
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,439
The same Sharpe
who took the Eagle at Talavera?

195
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:53,919
May I intercede?

196
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,599
Colonel Bampfylde is new in Spain.

197
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,999
Field Marshal Wellington's views on duelling
are very strict, sir.

198
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:08,679
Absolutely.

199
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:14,799
Er, Major Sharpe, may I apologise
for any offence I have caused you and the lady?

200
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,959
It doesn't do to duel
with your new commanding officer.

201
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,439
Apology accepted...

202
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:37,719
..sir.

203
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:41,759
Good night.

204
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,599
My new commanding officer.

205
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,999
SHARPE: Jane! Jane, it's me.
- Sssh! Sssh!

206
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,599
Oh, bloody hell.

207
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,719
I'm getting too old for this.

208
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:23,239
Do you mind ifwe go to bed now, Jane?
I've got to get up early in the morning.

209
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,639
And why must you get up so early,
Major Sharpe?

210
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,479
Well...as a matter offact,

211
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,599
I'm getting married.

212
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,719
So all this has got to stop,

213
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,359
because tomorrow I'm turning over a new leaf.

214
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,479
Tomorrow...

215
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,479
..to fresh woods and pastures new.

216
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,279
It sounds like poetry.

217
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,319
It is poetry.

218
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,439
It's Milton.

219
00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:01,919
Bugger Milton.

220
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:12,439
Do you, Richard Sharpe, take this woman,
Jane Gibbons, to be your lawful wedded wife?

221
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,479
To have and to hold,

222
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,919
in sickness and in health, till death do you part?

223
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,039
I do.

224
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,159
Do you, Jane Gibbons,

225
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,999
take this man, Richard Sharpe,
to be your lawful wedded husband?

226
00:17:27,120 --> 00:17:29,039
To have and to hold,

227
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,679
in sickness and in health, till death do you part?

228
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,279
I do.

229
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:38,039
The ring.

230
00:17:51,120 --> 00:17:53,879
I now pronounce you man and wife.

231
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,679
Till death do us part.

232
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,879
Come on. Double up. Double up!

233
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:11,679
Fall in on your markers.

234
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:13,999
SOLDIER: And prepare to move off!

235
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:17,919
Jane, you're burning.

236
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,039
Nonsense.

237
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,439
It was too warm last night.

238
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,359
Oh, Richard,
you've time to take that fresh linen to Ross.

239
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,199
You know how squalid these surgeons are.

240
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,199
It makes no difference to Ross what he wears.

241
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,599
He's that sick, he makes no sense.

242
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,719
Please, Richard. I promised.

243
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:52,719
Very well.

244
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,719
I'll come back and say goodbye.

245
00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:58,919
Don't.

246
00:19:00,360 --> 00:19:02,359
We've already said goodbye.

247
00:19:04,120 --> 00:19:07,719
I don't want to see you till you're back again,
safe in bed with me.

248
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,279
- No.
- Ah, go on. Let me come with you.

249
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:59,119
Harper, Bampfylde has his own regimental
sergeant major. You'll have to stay here.

250
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,839
On top ofwhich, you look like
you've got a cannonball in your gob.

251
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,439
It's just as well you keep following me around,

252
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,119
cos I'm offto see the surgeon - Kenefick.
Fall in behind me.

253
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,239
You fight dirty, so you do.

254
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,719
Ah, you do, so you do.

255
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,799
(Breathes heavily)

256
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,519
He's got the fever. You can't go in there.

257
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,959
Not unless you want to die.

258
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,279
What about you?

259
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,399
Jesuit's bark.

260
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,439
We call it quinine. Worth its weight in gold.

261
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:42,799
I've saved this one dose for myself,
ifthe worst comes to the worst.

262
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:44,839
(Ross coughs)

263
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:46,879
How bad is he?

264
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,919
I've done the best I can.

265
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,679
He's wrapped in red flannel, bled regular,

266
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,319
fed gunpowder and brandy.
Pukes his guts up every half-hour.

267
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,439
Best I can do.

268
00:21:02,120 --> 00:21:04,799
I'd like you to take a look at my wife, Kenefick.

269
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:06,839
I think she's got the fever.

270
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:08,879
I'm sorry, Major.

271
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,919
Though I'm not surprised.

272
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:12,959
She is often here.

273
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:14,999
Jane?

274
00:21:15,120 --> 00:21:17,239
Jane's been here?

275
00:21:17,360 --> 00:21:20,399
She brings fruit, fresh figs, clean linen.

276
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,519
You let my wife in this slaughterhouse?

277
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,559
Good God, Sharpe. You married her.

278
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:30,079
Don't you know no power on Earth
can stop a woman once her mind's made up?

279
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,079
I'm sorry.

280
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,079
She woke up sick this morning.

281
00:21:41,360 --> 00:21:43,999
Skin like brown paper heated over a fire.

282
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,199
Is that how it starts?

283
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,879
Maybe. Most fevers start like that.

284
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,799
You'll know in a day and a night
whether it's fatal.

285
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:54,839
I'm off on a mission.

286
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,759
In that case, Sharpe, you should say
your goodbyes to her properly.

287
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:21,479
I must see her!

288
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,399
She has the fever, Sharpe.

289
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,119
If you go in there, you'll get the fever,
then you'll give it to our men.

290
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:31,679
Do you want our men facing the French
shaking with fever, Sharpe?

291
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,759
- Can't you move it faster?
- Carrying a lot ofweight, sir.

292
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,119
Yes, so are you.

293
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,319
HARPER: Oh, Jesus!

294
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,599
(Mimics Harper) Oh, Jesus. Oh, begorra.

295
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,879
HARRIS: I've got a stone in my boot.

296
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,279
(Hagman laughs)

297
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:31,839
(Groans)

298
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,959
Column, halt!

299
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:50,599
Fever?

300
00:23:52,120 --> 00:23:53,759
Fatigue, sir.

301
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,479
- Put him on the wagon, Sergeant Major.
- Sir.

302
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,439
My father says a sure cure for fatigue
is a fast flogging.

303
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:01,559
Give us a hand. Right.

304
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,759
Here. I'll take him.

305
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:11,839
PALMER: Column, forward!

306
00:24:13,360 --> 00:24:15,359
Do you fancy a rest, Robinson?

307
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:18,759
No, I'm all right, Reilly. You go.

308
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:20,879
Thanks, Jack.

309
00:24:22,360 --> 00:24:23,559
(Groans)

310
00:24:26,360 --> 00:24:27,559
Sir!

311
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,279
- What's the matter with him?
- Fatigue, sir?

312
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:44,879
It looks more like fever to me.

313
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:50,039
- How can you tell that, sir?
- Why, it's simple, Robinson.

314
00:24:51,120 --> 00:24:53,039
Just take a big long needle

315
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,159
and you stick it in his eyeball.

316
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,479
If it's fever, he won't feel a thing.

317
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:00,999
Where am I?

318
00:25:01,120 --> 00:25:03,039
You're in a war, Reilly.

319
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,079
On one side there's you
and on the other side is me.

320
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,839
So, you and Robinson are on guard duty tonight.

321
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,119
And tomorrow night and the night after.

322
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:15,639
When you've finished, you'll know
the difference between fever and fatigue.

323
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,759
Now, get in line!

324
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,639
Do you think...
Would Sharpe have stuck a needle in my eye?

325
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:31,719
A needle? He hasn't got a needle.

326
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:33,839
He'd have used a bloody bayonet.

327
00:25:35,360 --> 00:25:38,439
HAGMAN: ♪ I saw a maid milk a bull

328
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,879
♪ Who's a fool now?

329
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,319
♪ I saw a maid milk a bull

330
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,959
♪ Every stroke a bucketful...

331
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,079
What, nobody put my tent up?

332
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,079
Have some soup, sir.

333
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,679
Bloody soup? Ain't you got any tea?

334
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,959
If Harper was here, he'd have my tent up
and the tea brewing and my bed turned down.

335
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,599
That er...Colonel Bumfield, sir...

336
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,399
Bampfylde.

337
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:09,119
Aye, him.

338
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,559
He's supping tea...

339
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:14,199
by his fire,

340
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,319
even as we speak, sir.

341
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:20,839
Hm.

342
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,639
(Horse neighs)

343
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,199
Whoa. Thank you.

344
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,679
Ahh. God, that tastes good.

345
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:49,159
- How come you're still a private soldier, Harper?
- Oh, it's my major, sir. Major Sharpe.

346
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,159
He has it in for me, sir.

347
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,799
You hear that, Palmer? That fool Sharpe again.

348
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:59,399
When I told him I had a bit of a twinge in
my tooth, he threatened the surgeon on me, sir.

349
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:01,959
Said I'd have to have it pulled out by the root.

350
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,919
- Charming.
- I told him all I needed to sort it out

351
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,119
was oil of cloves and a drop of brandy.

352
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:09,519
I er...

353
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,679
I managed to locate the oil of cloves.

354
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:13,719
Oh, I've got some brandy.

355
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,759
Fytch, fetch me that bottle of brandy.

356
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:17,079
Sir.

357
00:27:18,120 --> 00:27:20,119
I swear I'll bloody kill him.

358
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:23,999
Thanks.

359
00:27:24,120 --> 00:27:26,839
- Medicinal purposes only.
- You're a decent man.

360
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,439
Harper! Where were you hiding?

361
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,279
How dare you frighten this poor fellow, Sharpe.

362
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,759
Hiding? W-What do you mean, hiding?

363
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:36,879
Isn't he one of your soldiers?

364
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:39,999
Yes, sir.

365
00:27:40,120 --> 00:27:41,719
Sorry, sir.

366
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:44,719
Good. Glad to hear it.

367
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,959
Go and get the bedwarmer, Harper.

368
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,079
Bedwarmer? Oh, yes, sir.

369
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,439
I must say, Sharpe,

370
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:59,479
I'm a strict disciplinarian,
but I don't hold with terrorising the troops.

371
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:01,119
I've finished the maps, sir.

372
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:02,359
Oh, splendid.

373
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,439
- Would you like to look at them?
- Lay 'em on the chest.

374
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:08,479
Major Sharpe?

375
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,119
May we have your attention?

376
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,119
(Sighs)

377
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,919
What would you like most in the world,
Robinson?

378
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:29,839
A woman. You?

379
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,359
- A drink.
- I'll give you a drink for a woman.

380
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,479
I'll give you a woman for a drink.

381
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,119
Aye, that's why we're friends.
Share and share alike.

382
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,159
Who goes there?

383
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,279
- A friend.
- Pass, friend.

384
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,959
SHARPE: My compliments, Maquerre.
These are first-class maps.

385
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,159
I think I could find my way
around that damn castle in the dark.

386
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,439
Time for bed.

387
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,159
Tomorrow we'll be in sight ofthe castle.

388
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:12,199
Tomorrow to fresh woods
and pastures new.

389
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:16,959
♪ Fiddle strikes up

390
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,119
SOLDIER: Here you go, lads. All right?

391
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,239
(Laughter)

392
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,879
Tea?

393
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:44,999
Thank you, Patrick.

394
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,199
No need to thank me, sir.

395
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:52,319
It's an absolute pleasure.

396
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:06,919
You'll be missing her, then?

397
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:11,759
Yeah.

398
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,559
She'll be fine, you know. She will be fine.

399
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:22,679
Yeah.

400
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,199
(Twig snaps)

401
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:34,719
Who goes there?

402
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:38,719
Pass, friend.

403
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:43,159
(Sword is drawn)

404
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,479
Reilly, do you hear something?

405
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,479
Reilly?

406
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:52,999
No! Reilly!

407
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:54,599
Reilly?

408
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,239
A French patrol?

409
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:27,959
They would have stolen the horses, sir.

410
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,399
Don't be silly, Sharpe. We're in France now.

411
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,839
Any passing peasant could be a friend or foe.

412
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,439
All right. Carry on.

413
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:42,079
(Clears throat) Would you like to say
a few words, Robinson?

414
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:43,799
(Sniffs)

415
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,639
Good luck, Reilly.

416
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,279
(Sniffs) Have a drink on me.

417
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:40,079
I've a terrible toothache, Reilly.
I need this a lot more than you do.

418
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,359
Oh, shite.

419
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,359
Column, halt!

420
00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,199
Major Sharpe! There it is, the bugger.

421
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,639
Glass, Palmer.

422
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,999
You don't need a glass, sir.
It's so bloody big, you can't miss it.

423
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:46,399
Right.

424
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:47,999
This is the castle.

425
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:49,839
This is the French high road.

426
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:51,479
We'll split forces here.

427
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:52,999
Split?

428
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:57,839
Sharpe, you and Captain Frederickson
take the Rifles and scout the high road.

429
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,599
The Compte says
you might intercept reinforcements.

430
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:07,159
Meanwhile, myself and the Prince ofWales's
Own Volunteers will attack the castle.

431
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,519
Are you sure you don't want us in support, sir?

432
00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:11,559
Damn you, Sharpe!

433
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:15,279
You've got your orders.
What are you dawdling about here for?

434
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,119
Frederickson! Form the Rifles!

435
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:25,199
60th Rifles, prepare to march!

436
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,799
Rifles, march!

437
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:31,919
Left heel.

438
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:01,559
The Prince ofWales's Own Volunteers,
prepare to advance.

439
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:03,599
Sergeant Major.

440
00:35:03,720 --> 00:35:07,199
Company, forward march!

441
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,119
Keep in line.

442
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,239
Keep it tight.

443
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:26,199
Keep going, men.

444
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,119
Aux armes!

445
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:34,359
Be brave!

446
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:36,479
This is a day for heroes.

447
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:42,759
Fermez les volets.

448
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:51,959
(Moans softly)

449
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,159
On your feet, son. On your feet.

450
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,639
PALMER: Hold the line, men.

451
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:08,679
Hold the line.

452
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,399
Apprêtez.

453
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:14,159
Feu!

454
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,039
Aaargh!

455
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,199
It's all right, Palmer. I'm all right.

456
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,319
Come on! Forward!

457
00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:58,279
(Screams)

458
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,519
The Colours are down. Take the Colours!

459
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,799
Take the Colours. Move on.

460
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:04,919
Move on!

461
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:07,839
Sergeant!

462
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,319
Move on! Move on!

463
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,439
Come on! Get up.

464
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:17,199
Come on!

465
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,079
Up! Come on!

466
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,279
Up, boys, up!

467
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,199
Come on! Come on!

468
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:36,479
HARPER: Company, halt.

469
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:45,199
Bampfylde's no soldier. He's a bloody butcher.

470
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,239
Begging your pardon, sir.

471
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,359
(Explosions)

472
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:00,559
The ladders aren't long enough.

473
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,679
The poor bastards.

474
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,239
(Screaming)

475
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:15,639
Hold the ladders!

476
00:38:16,720 --> 00:38:18,319
Get up those ladders!

477
00:38:20,720 --> 00:38:22,719
Oh, my God. We're all going to die.

478
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,919
BAMPFYLDE: We're all going to die.

479
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,679
- I think we should fall back, sir.
- Do you think so, Palmer?

480
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:36,439
Yes. Yes, whatever you say.
Fall back. Give the order to fall back.

481
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,279
Fall back!

482
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,359
Argh!

483
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,479
- Fall back!
(Bugle sounds)

484
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,479
Feu!

485
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:54,759
(Explosion)

486
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:09,999
The men are restless, sir.

487
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,119
I know.

488
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:15,559
There's a debt to be settled.

489
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,639
I'm going in that castle, Frederickson.

490
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,439
I don't know how, but I'm going in.

491
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:26,439
(Moaning)

492
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:32,359
Easy, there, lad. Easy. That's it.

493
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:34,479
Let's get it tied up.

494
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,679
We had bad luck today, Colonel Bampfylde...

495
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,479
..but we can have better luck tomorrow.

496
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:56,759
What do you mean
we could have better luck tomorrow?

497
00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:01,279
Remember our mission, Colonel Bampfylde?
It was not to take the castle,

498
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,439
but to raise rebellion.

499
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:07,999
It's rebellion that will give Wellington
the confidence to come behind you.

500
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,919
How can we be sure the people here
are ready to rise against Bonaparte?

501
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:18,159
Because I'll ride to the nearest town tonight
and I'll bring back the mayor.

502
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,279
You'll be satisfied.

503
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:24,159
Would you?

504
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:27,639
Would you do that for me?

505
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,199
Bless you, Compte.

506
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:36,719
Goodbye.

507
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,519
- What we need is blood.
HAGMAN: Aye.

508
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,639
HAGMAN: Blood.

509
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:55,519
You want my tooth?

510
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:57,559
Mother of Jesus. No way!

511
00:40:57,680 --> 00:40:59,599
A surgeon will have to take it out, anyway.

512
00:40:59,720 --> 00:41:03,359
But you're not a surgeon.
Besides, you've no pincers.

513
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:12,959
What kind... What kind of a human being
carries pincers

514
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,079
around in his pocket?

515
00:41:17,240 --> 00:41:19,559
I collect perfect teeth from dead Frogs.

516
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,559
When I get back to England
I intend to have a full set made.

517
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:28,479
All right. Let's get on with it. Strip him.

518
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:30,199
(Shirt is ripped)

519
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:33,319
Here. Quick, give me a drink.

520
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:35,839
Brandy.

521
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:38,839
Not too much.

522
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,519
It isn't your tooth.

523
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:43,039
- Would you like me to do it?
- You? He'll do it.

524
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,359
You might take an extra one
for your perfect set back in London.

525
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:48,319
I have grand teeth, you know.

526
00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:50,279
Except for this one, the bastard.

527
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,119
Of course, you should use a screw claw.

528
00:41:53,240 --> 00:41:55,359
Now, don't pull.

529
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,239
Push the tooth down towards the jawbone.

530
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,959
Twist it to the left,

531
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:03,679
then to the right.

532
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,799
Then slide it out.

533
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:09,199
Right.

534
00:42:11,240 --> 00:42:13,159
Open up.

535
00:42:15,720 --> 00:42:17,639
(Moans)

536
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:19,759
Aaargh!

537
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,079
- Sorry. It slipped.
- Here. Let me do it.

538
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,359
You?! I'll do it.

539
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,479
God damn you.

540
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,639
- Ahhh!
- Come on, Pat. Pull it.

541
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:34,679
That's it. You can do it, sarge.

542
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,719
That's it, sarge. Go on.

543
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:38,839
Go on! Go on!

544
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,239
- Get it out.
- Come on.

545
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:44,999
Go on, Pat. Go on. Get the bugger out.

546
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:47,039
Pull, Pat. Pull!

547
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:49,399
ALL: Yes!

548
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:50,759
Get him on a stretcher.

549
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,719
Go on. Come on, Pat. On you get.

550
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:56,839
On you get. That's it.

551
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:01,119
Don't waste it.

552
00:43:01,240 --> 00:43:03,239
SHARPE: Spit it on your chest.

553
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:07,559
That's it.

554
00:43:12,720 --> 00:43:14,399
(Lassan shouts)

555
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,519
(Frederickson replies)

556
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:49,919
We're in.

557
00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:15,519
FRENCHMAN: Qu'est-ce qui se passe?

558
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:17,599
SHARPE: Tell him.

559
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,199
LASSAN: Aux armes! Aux armes!

560
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:32,239
Blow the bugle!

561
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:42,439
That's our bugle, sir. Blowing the rally.

562
00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:45,879
PALMER: Some of our men
have got into that bloody castle.

563
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,359
(Gunfire)

564
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,479
Sergeant Major Waters, call the men to arms!

565
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:54,759
Argh!

566
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:13,279
(Battle cries)

567
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:17,079
Arrêtez le feu.

568
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,599
SHARPE: Stop firing!

569
00:45:19,720 --> 00:45:23,159
Stop firing! They've surrendered.

570
00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:25,239
Arrêtez de tirer.

571
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,399
Right. Get their guns.

572
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:30,959
Come on. Come on. On the double, lads!

573
00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:35,959
Come on. Quickly!

574
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:45,959
I am Colonel Henri Lassan.

575
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:47,999
We surrender to you.

576
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:51,879
I am Major Richard Sharpe
ofthe Prince ofWales's Own Volunteers.

577
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:53,919
I accept your surrender.

578
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:58,679
Non! You English brutes, you can't fight fair.
You have to trick your way into the castle.

579
00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:02,879
Such a trick is perfectly acceptable, ma'am.
It's called a "ruse de guerre".

580
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,719
I don't care.
The Emperor would never stoop so low.

581
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:07,759
It was cowardly!

582
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:09,999
It was contemptible and...and...

583
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,239
- Conniving?
- Yes, conniving.

584
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:14,759
You speak excellent English, ma'am.

585
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:18,479
So, go and tell your fellow countrymen
they're free to go.

586
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,119
Free to go?

587
00:46:23,240 --> 00:46:25,159
You are not keeping prisoners?

588
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:26,959
They're free to go.

589
00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:28,879
And you must go, too.

590
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,199
(Whispers in French)

591
00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:35,519
LASSAN: Mais allez-y.

592
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,559
Vous êtes une femme.

593
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:39,679
- Demandez-lui.
- Oui.

594
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:47,999
My mother, Madame Maquerre,
she's terribly ill with the fever. She's dying.

595
00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:50,439
She's too sick to move.

596
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:52,879
I should like to stay here,

597
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:57,279
make her last days here
as easy as possible, to look after her, please.

598
00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:01,239
Very well.

599
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,079
You're welcome to stay,
Mademoiselle Maquerre.

600
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:05,959
Thank you.

601
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:08,079
You may keep your sword, sir.

602
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:11,359
Thank you, Major Sharpe.

603
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:16,239
As soon as my men have finished piling arms,
we will leave.

604
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:22,679
BAMPFYLDE: Secure the fort, men!

605
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,839
All right, lads. Spread out. Spread out, lads.

606
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:34,279
Stand aside.

607
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,719
What the bloody hell's going on here, Sharpe?

608
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,359
Frogs surrender and you let them swan around?

609
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:49,839
You haven't even taken that chap's sword.

610
00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:52,439
Look, I said he could keep it.

611
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,119
Sir.

612
00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:03,719
Now, ifwe put these men in cells,
we'll have to guard them day and night.

613
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:07,999
What with the wounded,
we just haven't got the men to do that, sir.

614
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:12,919
Very well.

615
00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:14,599
Send them packing.

616
00:48:14,720 --> 00:48:17,159
And you might as well
get back to your mission, Sharpe.

617
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:19,279
I'm in charge here.

618
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:24,879
All right, lads.

619
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:35,799
A pretty girl, Palmer.

620
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:39,599
Never had a French one before.
A first time for everything, what?

621
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,279
- Mademoiselle.
- Monsieur?

622
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:51,679
I'd be greatly obliged if you'd do me the honour
of dining with me this evening.

623
00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:55,199
Au revoir, monsieur.

624
00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:58,679
Come on.

625
00:49:39,240 --> 00:49:41,239
(Sheep bleat)

626
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:46,559
(Frederickson pants)

627
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:04,879
SHARPE: A French convoy.

628
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:08,399
Nice pickings.

629
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:11,919
Right.

630
00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:16,279
Frederickson, take halfthe men.
Get behind that wall.

631
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:21,319
I'll take the other half, get in that ditch.
Catch 'em in t'crossfire.

632
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,159
Harper, you get yourself in that farmhouse.

633
00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:27,559
When the head ofthe column reaches you,
give 'em a volley.

634
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:29,599
Then it's up and at 'em.

635
00:50:29,720 --> 00:50:31,319
Go.

636
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:40,799
Get to your post, Robinson.

637
00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:44,279
Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.

638
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:48,679
(Sheep bleat)

639
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:50,679
(Rustling)

640
00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:58,719
Sssh!

641
00:51:01,240 --> 00:51:02,839
MAN: Brigitte!

642
00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:05,399
Husband?

643
00:51:06,720 --> 00:51:08,519
Non. Papa.

644
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:47,199
Good man, Maquerre.
Is this the mayor?

645
00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:48,719
Bonjour.

646
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:50,439
Monsieur.

647
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:53,839
- He speaks English, sir.
- Yes.

648
00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:55,879
Oh, thank heavens for that.

649
00:51:56,000 --> 00:52:01,599
My name is Colonel Bampfylde, commander of
His Britannic Majesty's forces here in Bordeaux.

650
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:06,839
You may deal with me
as with Wellington himself.

651
00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:10,279
I can see the Colonel is a great commander.

652
00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:13,319
As Mayor ofArcon, I too am a commander.

653
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:16,599
I command all the civilian forces in this region.

654
00:52:16,720 --> 00:52:22,079
We are ready to raise the flag of rebellion
against the usurper Napoleon Bonaparte

655
00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:28,999
and to declare our loyalty to the true king,
Louis Philippe, Prince de Bourbon.

656
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:33,599
Well, well.
Wellington will be glad to hear this, what.

657
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:38,319
With all due respects, Colonel Bampfylde,
the sooner the better.

658
00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:41,279
Something on your mind, Maquerre?

659
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:46,799
Rumours ofthe rebellion have already reached
General Calvet. He's marching in this direction.

660
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:52,279
Er...what do you suggest we do?

661
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:58,759
Go home. Tell Wellington to speed his advance.

662
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:01,959
Go home?

663
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,399
Remember, our mission was twofold.

664
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:08,239
First, to make sure
that the region was ready for rebellion.

665
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:10,359
Second, to take the castle.

666
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:13,359
You've done both.

667
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:15,479
You'll go home a hero.

668
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:18,799
I say, steady on.

669
00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:22,399
What about Major Sharpe?

670
00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:24,839
Erm... Erm...

671
00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:27,639
Major Sharpe has erm...

672
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:30,599
How should I say? An accident.

673
00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:36,479
Yesterday, he met General Calvet's
advance guard.

674
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:41,879
I'm awfully sorry. I hear there were no survivors.

675
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:44,959
Good God.

676
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:48,839
We'd better be off, Maquerre, what?

677
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:54,359
Before you go, destroy all the defences.
We don't want them falling into the wrong hands.

678
00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:58,399
- Yes, yes, yes. I agree.
- You must also decide about the wounded.

679
00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,959
BAMPFYLDE: We'll never get back
ifwe're carrying all those.

680
00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:04,999
We'll have to leave them here.

681
00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:08,199
What will Wellington say
if I leave all the wounded here?

682
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:11,799
My sister Catherine will look after them.
They'll be in her care.

683
00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:15,359
- Be sure they'll be treated as prisoners ofwar.
- Oh, yes.

684
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:20,199
Good. That makes sense to me.
I'm much obliged to you, sir.

685
00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:23,959
Right. Let's get back to Wellington.

686
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,919
You will back me up on all this,
won't you, Maquerre?

687
00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:31,159
Of course, sir, but first,
allow me to say goodbye to my mother.

688
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:33,439
Oh, of course.

689
00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:41,039
(Door is unlatched)

690
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,079
(Moans)

691
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:29,759
Make ready.

692
00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:35,599
You see the troopers?

693
00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:38,639
HARPER: Well, take them down.

694
00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:41,639
We don't want them running away
with any messages.

695
00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:44,399
Steady, now.

696
00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:46,679
Fire!

697
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:53,599
- Fire!
- Couvert!

698
00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:56,239
(Screaming)

699
00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:57,799
Fire!

700
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:06,839
Tirez! Mon Dieu. Tirez!

701
00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:18,799
- Up and at 'em!
HAGMAN: Come on, lads!

702
00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:37,919
HARPER: Keep it up, Robinson.
The rest ofyou, follow me.

703
00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:00,279
Halt! Stop.

704
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:02,319
Stop.

705
00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:04,079
Stop firing.

706
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:06,199
Stop firing. They've had enough.

707
00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:09,359
Whoa, Patrick. Leave it.

708
00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:12,719
All right, boys. Let's get the loot.

709
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:14,839
SOLDIERS: Yes!

710
00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:18,399
Let's see what they've got. Over here!

711
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:22,079
What's this?

712
00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:25,639
I've got some silver here.

713
00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:32,119
(Contents rattle)
- Gold?

714
00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:34,599
Key!

715
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:37,639
- Fine. I take it with your hand attached.
- No, no.

716
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:54,079
What is it? Tobacco?

717
00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:04,559
It's Jesuit's bark.

718
00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:10,119
It's quinine.

719
00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:14,319
- Sawbones.
- Get it off him.

720
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:16,639
Guard it with your life.

721
00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:18,759
(Rowdy chatter)

722
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:24,879
What luck. Voltaire!

723
00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:28,359
- Has anybody seen Robinson?
(Brigitte screams)

724
00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:30,479
(Screams)

725
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:33,519
Will.

726
00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:37,519
(Giggling)

727
00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:41,239
Robinson!

728
00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:43,279
Are you a Catholic, Robinson?

729
00:59:43,400 --> 00:59:46,559
- No, why?
- If you are, I'd say an act of contrition for you.

730
00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:48,279
Have a drink, anyway.

731
00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:57,079
- I'm sorry, Frederickson.
- Good God, Sharpe! Not for that?

732
00:59:57,200 --> 00:59:59,119
String him up!

733
00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:02,799
Tie a hard knot, Hagman.
Break his neck. I don't want him to suffer.

734
01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:08,799
I'm sorry, Robinson. You're a brave soldier,
but if I don't hang you, Wellington'll hang me.

735
01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:11,839
- No, Sharpe. You can't!
- Look, you know the rules.

736
01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:16,879
These people are on our side. Raping and robbing
will turn the whole population against us.

737
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,279
That's why Wellington strings 'em up.

738
01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:21,639
It's only rape ifthe girl says so.

739
01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:23,759
Ask the girl, sir.

740
01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:34,199
All right, then.

741
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:36,159
- Harris.
- Sir.

742
01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:45,199
Oui.

743
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,639
There you are, sir. The girl's happy, sir.

744
01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:53,159
Non!

745
01:00:53,280 --> 01:00:55,279
Her father isn't.

746
01:00:56,360 --> 01:00:58,559
Give me the sovereigns, Frederickson.

747
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:04,759
They're for you.

748
01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:07,279
Harper, take Robinson behind the barn.

749
01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:10,319
Teach him he does not make free
with the French girls.

750
01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:11,759
Sir!

751
01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:21,879
Harris, ask the old man
if he'd rise against Bonaparte.

752
01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:27,919
Est-il vrai que vous êtes prêt
à vous lever contre Bonaparte?

753
01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:35,919
So much
for the Compte de Maquerre's rebellion.

754
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:37,959
(Explosion)

755
01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:41,679
That's the bloody fort!

756
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:02,519
'Ey up.

757
01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:04,879
- What's happened?
- Where is everybody?

758
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:07,159
Steady, lads. Steady.

759
01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:09,279
Where the hell is everybody?

760
01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:12,279
Where's Bampfylde?

761
01:02:12,400 --> 01:02:14,479
Why have they blown the bloody gates?

762
01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:18,199
SOLDIER: Hey, it's the sarge.

763
01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:20,319
Sir! Wounded men, sir.

764
01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:24,599
Frederickson, get that surgeon over here.

765
01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:25,839
Sir.

766
01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:27,439
Here.

767
01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:36,479
Maquerre said you were dead, Sharpe.

768
01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:40,959
Did he?

769
01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:44,879
Where's Bampfylde?

770
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:46,919
He's gone.

771
01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:49,919
Maquerre came back
with the Mayor ofArcon, sir.

772
01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:54,759
He said Bordeaux was ready
to rise in rebellion against Napoleon.

773
01:02:54,880 --> 01:02:58,399
Bampfylde cleared off
to give Wellington the good news.

774
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:01,639
So why did he spike the guns?
Why did he blow the gates?

775
01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:07,319
Maquerre persuaded him to do it. He didn't want
the castle falling into the wrong hands.

776
01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:10,799
My hands.

777
01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:17,039
The man with Maquerre, the mayor,
what did he look like?

778
01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:19,079
Er...

779
01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:22,519
His face was like a dead fish.

780
01:03:22,640 --> 01:03:25,399
Round glasses. Didn't look much like a mayor.

781
01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:28,039
He seemed to be giving Maquerre his orders.

782
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:31,559
Ducos.

783
01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:35,759
If Ducos was here, Calvet can't be far behind.

784
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:37,919
He'll get here before Wellington.

785
01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:41,039
- We're all going to die here, Sharpe.
- No, we're not.

786
01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:46,039
Take out the bullet.

787
01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:49,839
C'est trop près de l'artère principale.

788
01:03:49,960 --> 01:03:52,079
He says it's too close to the main artery.

789
01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:55,399
Take it out.

790
01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:57,519
He dies - you die.

791
01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:14,079
(Whimpers)

792
01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:23,959
Argh!

793
01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:28,559
(Sobs)

794
01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:39,039
You've done well, Palmer.

795
01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:42,759
You've done well, son.

796
01:04:42,880 --> 01:04:44,879
I'm much obliged, Sharpe.

797
01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:15,479
Well?

798
01:05:15,600 --> 01:05:18,999
- They've flooded the powder magazine.
- It's like porridge.

799
01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:21,119
(Sighs)

800
01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:24,519
So, what have we got?

801
01:05:24,640 --> 01:05:26,559
18 rounds per man, sir.

802
01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:28,679
18 rounds.

803
01:05:31,680 --> 01:05:34,719
Our only chance
is to get 'em to come through them gates.

804
01:05:34,840 --> 01:05:37,319
So don't repair the gates. Leave them open.

805
01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:40,519
We'll get them into the courtyard.

806
01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:43,839
I hope our volleys are enough
to put the fear of God into them.

807
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:47,359
- And if our volleys don't stop them?
- Any other suggestions?

808
01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:51,719
We could go back to camp, tell Wellington
what Bampfylde's been up to here.

809
01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:53,759
He'd hang him from the nearest tree.

810
01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:55,799
Yeah, well, I'm staying here.

811
01:05:55,920 --> 01:05:57,839
Yeah? Why is that, Harper?

812
01:05:57,960 --> 01:06:02,439
I've got another bit of a toothache.
I wouldn't want to lose another tooth, would I?

813
01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:05,839
I'll take my chances with General Calvet.

814
01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:15,359
I beg your pardon, sir,
but Miss Catherine would like to see you.

815
01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:17,479
All right.

816
01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,679
(Door is unlatched)

817
01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:33,959
My mother has the fever.

818
01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:35,999
She's dying.

819
01:06:36,120 --> 01:06:38,199
I'm sorry to hear that, miss.

820
01:06:38,320 --> 01:06:42,439
I am sorry for you.
I hear your wife is dying ofthe same fever.

821
01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:46,679
That's why you wanted the quinine?

822
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:48,639
For your wife?

823
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:52,239
Yes.

824
01:06:56,240 --> 01:06:59,959
It's very difficult for me to ask a favour
of an English officer.

825
01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:03,959
But I must, for her.

826
01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:08,119
It is not likely you will see your wife again.

827
01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:11,119
- Calvet's coming.
- So I hear.

828
01:07:11,240 --> 01:07:13,999
But if you leave now and take the quinine,
you can save her life.

829
01:07:14,120 --> 01:07:16,359
I'm sorry, miss. I can't leave.

830
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:18,399
I must do my duty.

831
01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:20,639
Your duty? To whom?

832
01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:23,759
To Bampfylde, that coward,
who left his wounded here?

833
01:07:23,880 --> 01:07:25,879
My duty is to Wellington, miss.

834
01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:30,399
My orders were to take the castle
and hold it until he advances.

835
01:07:34,400 --> 01:07:36,999
My God. The invasion of France has begun.

836
01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:43,319
This is the beginning ofthe end, isn't it?

837
01:07:44,880 --> 01:07:47,119
I'm sorry, miss. I must be about my duties.

838
01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:49,159
No, wait. I haven't finished.

839
01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:52,199
Ifyou stay here, you will die,
so why not give me the quinine now?

840
01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:54,319
Put yourself in my place.

841
01:07:55,800 --> 01:08:00,519
If I give you the quinine, I may as well go and
tell my men that none ofthem are going home.

842
01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:04,039
What would you do?

843
01:08:06,440 --> 01:08:08,439
I would do the same as you.

844
01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:13,199
I would keep the quinine
and hope to see my wife.

845
01:08:29,320 --> 01:08:31,319
(Catherine sobs)

846
01:08:41,720 --> 01:08:43,639
Show the Colours, boys.

847
01:08:43,760 --> 01:08:46,919
I want three cheers for Field Marshal Wellington.

848
01:08:47,040 --> 01:08:48,439
- Hip, hip.
MEN: Huzzah!

849
01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:49,479
Hip, hip.

850
01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:50,959
Huzzah!

851
01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:52,679
- Hip, hip.
- Huzzah!

852
01:08:57,360 --> 01:08:59,559
- Have you still got that box?
- Yes, sir.

853
01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:03,439
- Tell Harris to take it to Mme Maquerre's room.
- All of it, sir?

854
01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:05,799
- All of it.
- Is that an order or a request?

855
01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:08,279
That's me telling you.

856
01:09:08,400 --> 01:09:10,959
Are you not going to save some
for your wife, sir?

857
01:09:46,080 --> 01:09:48,079
Shite.

858
01:09:59,480 --> 01:10:01,479
(Drumbeats)

859
01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:10,639
HAGMAN: ♪ For I am thine and thou art mine

860
01:10:11,720 --> 01:10:14,879
♪ No man shall uncomfort thee

861

863
01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:28,599
It'll all be over tomorrow, sir.

864
01:10:31,600 --> 01:10:33,599
Then you can go back and see her, eh?

865
01:10:36,520 --> 01:10:38,519
Yeah.

866
01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:55,079
Médicament, Mère.

867
01:11:16,680 --> 01:11:18,599
Thanks, Pat.

868
01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:20,639
I was thinking.

869
01:11:20,760 --> 01:11:23,439
Things could be an awful lot worse, you know.

870
01:11:23,560 --> 01:11:26,559
How the bloody hell could things get worse, Pat?

871
01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:31,719
We could be without the cup oftea.

872
01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:28,079
Bon.

873
01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:03,959
What are you doing?

874
01:13:04,080 --> 01:13:06,999
I'm casting my own bullets, sir,
and grinding down powder.

875
01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:10,039
Then I can hit them from 400 yards,
instead of 200 yards.

876
01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:13,999
- Why don't you wait for them?
- At 200 yards, they're running. Too hard to hit.

877
01:13:14,120 --> 01:13:16,959
At 400 yards, they think you can't hit 'em.

878
01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:19,999
They swagger about,
all cocky like, not taking cover.

879
01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:21,319
Yeah.

880
01:13:21,440 --> 01:13:24,479
Frederickson says
you're the best shot in the Brigade.

881
01:13:25,800 --> 01:13:27,199
I reckon so, sir.

882
01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:28,679
You hear that, Hagman?

883
01:13:28,800 --> 01:13:31,719
He reckons he's the best shot in the Brigade.

884
01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:33,959
Aye.

885
01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:36,439
I have heard, sir.

886
01:13:40,840 --> 01:13:44,639
Ifyou grind it too fine,
it'll blow your bloody head off.

887
01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:48,319
Then nobody'll know who's t'best shot.
Thee or me.

888
01:14:03,640 --> 01:14:05,639
CATHERINE: Major Sharpe!

889
01:14:06,920 --> 01:14:09,079
It's my mother. The fever has broken.

890
01:14:10,640 --> 01:14:12,239
That's good.

891
01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:16,959
I'm a good Frenchwoman...

892
01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:23,159
..but if I were a man, I would be a soldier.

893
01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:25,959
And if I were a soldier,

894
01:14:26,080 --> 01:14:28,639
I would have sworn an oath of loyalty
to my Emperor.

895
01:14:28,760 --> 01:14:32,159
- I understand.
- But I am not a soldier.

896
01:14:33,960 --> 01:14:35,959
And so I can tell you something.

897
01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:39,039
And what is that, mademoiselle?

898
01:14:40,320 --> 01:14:42,959
The cellar, it is full of oyster shells.

899
01:14:43,080 --> 01:14:45,079
Burn them.

900
01:14:51,600 --> 01:14:53,599
Oyster shells?

901
01:15:07,040 --> 01:15:09,359
What happens when you burn oyster shells?

902
01:15:11,840 --> 01:15:13,759
You get ash, I suppose.

903
01:15:13,880 --> 01:15:15,799
I was born in a fishing village, sir.

904
01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:19,439
The fishermen used to burn oyster shells
all the time.

905
01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:22,999
- Why?
- To whitewash their houses, sir.

906
01:15:23,120 --> 01:15:28,759
When you burn oyster shells, you get lime.
You get that in the eyes, you go blind.

907
01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:20,679
(Floorboards creak)

908
01:16:32,520 --> 01:16:34,519
I can't sleep.

909
01:16:35,560 --> 01:16:37,479
I can't sleep, either.

910
01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:39,839
Why, because ofthe battle?

911
01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:44,439
No. Because you're sitting on my bed.

912
01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:46,959
I couldn't sleep...

913
01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:49,479
because of you.

914
01:16:50,560 --> 01:16:52,279
Because of me?

915
01:16:52,400 --> 01:16:54,319
Yes.

916
01:16:54,440 --> 01:16:56,359
You saved my mother's life.

917
01:16:56,480 --> 01:17:00,239
So, I was lying in my bed
thinking how I could pay you back.

918
01:17:01,320 --> 01:17:03,439
I can only pay you back with silver or...

919
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:07,799
- Gold?
- No, with my virtue.

920
01:17:07,920 --> 01:17:12,519
But I know that you are not the kind of man
who will accept money.

921
01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:16,159
Someday I will meet a man who will love me,
but that's tomorrow.

922
01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:18,279
For you, there's no tomorrow.

923
01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:21,559
So I must pay you back now.

924
01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:40,239
Look...Catherine, you're a nice lass,
but er...I think you've made the wrong choice.

925
01:17:40,360 --> 01:17:41,519
The wrong choice?

926
01:17:41,640 --> 01:17:43,559
Well...

927
01:17:43,680 --> 01:17:47,999
you said a woman could pay back a man
by giving him gold or giving him a good time.

928
01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:51,439
You made the wrong choice. I'll have the gold.

929
01:17:51,560 --> 01:17:53,799
You prefer to have the gold than my virtue?

930
01:17:53,920 --> 01:17:56,079
Well, if you don't mind.

931
01:17:57,360 --> 01:17:59,359
If I don't mind?

932
01:18:01,360 --> 01:18:03,359
You monster.

933
01:18:07,040 --> 01:18:09,039
You English monster.

934
01:18:16,080 --> 01:18:17,999
That were close, Sharpe, eh?

935
01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:20,319
If she came back, I doubt you'd stand.

936
01:18:45,200 --> 01:18:47,119
SHARPE: They want to parley.

937
01:18:47,240 --> 01:18:49,239
What do we do, sir?

938
01:18:51,880 --> 01:18:53,879
Show a rag.

939
01:19:06,880 --> 01:19:09,159
So, you've finally come out in your true colours.

940
01:19:15,840 --> 01:19:18,759
Aristide, why are you wearing
Bonaparte's uniform?

941
01:19:18,880 --> 01:19:24,119
I've worn it in secret for 15 years,
hidden my heart even from my own family.

942
01:19:24,240 --> 01:19:26,599
All these years, Aristide...

943
01:19:28,600 --> 01:19:30,599
..you lied to us.

944
01:19:32,880 --> 01:19:35,799
All these years...lost.

945
01:19:35,920 --> 01:19:39,599
But now it's over. Now we're on the same side.

946
01:19:39,720 --> 01:19:41,039
No, we're not.

947
01:19:42,960 --> 01:19:44,959
Let me take my sick mother and sister.

948
01:19:45,080 --> 01:19:46,919
Lay down your arms

949
01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:50,839
- and General Calvet will give you your lives.
- All ofthem?

950
01:19:50,960 --> 01:19:52,959
All ofthem.

951
01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:56,839
Except for Major Sharpe.

952
01:19:58,120 --> 01:20:00,039
Major Ducos has decided he must stay.

953
01:20:00,160 --> 01:20:01,239
Why?

954
01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:09,599
Will you let your men save themselves?
Will you let them speak?

955
01:20:12,160 --> 01:20:15,279
Well? Speak your minds.

956
01:20:24,200 --> 01:20:26,119
One question.

957
01:20:26,240 --> 01:20:28,239
Did you kill Reilly?

958
01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:32,839
One night, I had to leave the camp
to make contact.

959
01:20:32,960 --> 01:20:35,159
He challenged me on my way back.

960
01:20:37,280 --> 01:20:39,559
I had no choice.

961
01:20:42,160 --> 01:20:44,079
So what do you say, Robinson?

962
01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:46,319
Fight them to the finish, sir.

963
01:20:49,880 --> 01:20:51,599
You'd better bugger off now.

964
01:20:54,680 --> 01:20:59,399
And my mother, my sister,
will they come with me?

965
01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:03,719
You may take your mother...

966
01:21:03,840 --> 01:21:05,759
and your sister.

967
01:21:05,880 --> 01:21:07,279
No, we stay.

968
01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:09,239
Nous ne bougerons pas d'ici, Aristide.

969
01:21:15,240 --> 01:21:18,159
Aristide, you have been away from home
for too long.

970
01:21:19,440 --> 01:21:21,359
We don't know you any more.

971
01:21:21,480 --> 01:21:23,479
You're a stranger...

972
01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:26,639
..and I have nothing more to say to you.

973
01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:35,519
I don't believe you.

974
01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:40,239
I don't think that you know what love is, Aristide,

975
01:21:40,360 --> 01:21:42,559
otherwise you wouldn't...

976
01:21:42,680 --> 01:21:45,399
you wouldn't have kept us alone for so long.

977
01:21:45,520 --> 01:21:48,399
You wouldn't have lied to us for so many years.

978
01:21:49,880 --> 01:21:51,799
Why did you do it?

979
01:21:51,920 --> 01:21:55,359
For whom? For Bonaparte?

980
01:21:56,440 --> 01:21:58,439
It's over, Aristide.

981
01:22:10,280 --> 01:22:12,279
Au revoir, Maquerre.

982
01:22:13,360 --> 01:22:15,279
Au revoir, Major Sharpe.

983
01:22:15,400 --> 01:22:19,039
Ifyou were in my position,
you would have done the same.

984
01:22:21,040 --> 01:22:22,959
I might,

985
01:22:23,080 --> 01:22:25,159
but I wouldn't expect a happy ending.

986
01:22:27,960 --> 01:22:29,879
You have to be a man, Maquerre.

987
01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:31,919
Me?

988
01:22:32,040 --> 01:22:34,359
I changed my class. Rose in the ranks.

989
01:22:35,840 --> 01:22:40,159
I can walk into the officers' mess,
but I don't expect them to be happy about it.

990
01:22:40,280 --> 01:22:42,199
I don't expect a round of applause.

991
01:22:42,320 --> 01:22:44,759
The same goes for my time with the lads.

992
01:22:44,880 --> 01:22:48,439
I can sit and drink tea,
but I'm not one ofthem any more.

993
01:22:48,560 --> 01:22:51,479
You make your bed, Maquerre,
and then you lie in it.

994
01:22:51,600 --> 01:22:53,599
Without complaining.

995
01:22:55,080 --> 01:22:57,559
The trouble with you is, you wanted it every way.

996
01:22:57,680 --> 01:23:02,559
You wanted to be a spy for years,
then you want to come back home.

997
01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:06,439
You want everybody to gather round
and say what a big hero you've been.

998
01:23:07,720 --> 01:23:09,639
The world's not like that, Maquerre.

999
01:23:09,760 --> 01:23:12,759
You made your bed with Bonaparte.

1000
01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:14,799
Well, maybe he'll give you a medal.

1001
01:23:14,920 --> 01:23:16,839
Maybe not.

1002
01:23:16,960 --> 01:23:18,959
Me?

1003
01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:25,439
The next time you're in my sights
and outside a flag of parley, I'll shoot you.

1004
01:23:57,920 --> 01:23:58,959
Now!

1005
01:24:23,240 --> 01:24:24,639
Bugger!

1006
01:24:33,520 --> 01:24:34,719
(Gunshot)

1007
01:24:44,040 --> 01:24:46,399
You're a good shot, Robinson, lad.

1008
01:24:46,520 --> 01:24:49,319
The second best in t'Brigade, I should say.

1009
01:25:24,520 --> 01:25:27,079
(Grumbling)

1010
01:25:51,800 --> 01:25:54,279
Brigade, en avant! Marche!

1011
01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:56,399
(Drums)

1012
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:10,839
- Vive l'Empereur!
- Vive l'Empereur!

1013
01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:12,879
We'll fire five rounds.

1014
01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:14,999
No more, no less.

1015
01:26:16,080 --> 01:26:17,999
You'll shoot officers and NCOs.

1016
01:26:18,120 --> 01:26:23,399
Then, when you count your ammunition,
every man will have 13 rounds left.

1017
01:26:23,520 --> 01:26:25,639
Fire in your own time.

1018
01:26:25,760 --> 01:26:27,319
Fire!

1019
01:26:40,720 --> 01:26:46,799
Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!

1020
01:27:10,680 --> 01:27:13,679
- Long live the Emperor!
- Long live the Emperor!

1021
01:27:14,400 --> 01:27:15,799
Argh!

1022
01:27:35,160 --> 01:27:37,359
To death see.

1023
01:27:55,800 --> 01:28:07,519
Fire!

1024
01:28:07,640 --> 01:28:09,639
(Cannonball whistles through air)

1025
01:28:14,480 --> 01:28:16,479
Quickly! Pull it!

1026
01:28:21,280 --> 01:28:22,959
Come on!

1027
01:28:24,040 --> 01:28:27,119
Well done, my children. Long live the Emperor!

1028
01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:28,319
Long live the Emperor!

1029
01:28:29,880 --> 01:28:31,079
Fire!

1030
01:28:34,800 --> 01:28:37,759
Come up! Long live the Emperor!

1031
01:28:38,840 --> 01:28:40,519
Now.

1032
01:28:42,200 --> 01:28:44,199
(Soldier coughs)

1033
01:28:47,920 --> 01:28:50,999
Form ranks. Form ranks at the gates.

1034
01:28:56,640 --> 01:28:58,639
(Confused moaning)

1035
01:29:00,760 --> 01:29:04,079
FREDERICKSON: Second rank, form here.
Form rank!

1036
01:29:04,200 --> 01:29:06,199
HARPER: Stand by me.

1037
01:29:11,280 --> 01:29:12,399
Fire!

1038
01:29:13,840 --> 01:29:15,559
Make ready.

1039
01:29:15,680 --> 01:29:17,159
Fire!

1040
01:29:18,840 --> 01:29:19,839
Third rank,

1041
01:29:19,960 --> 01:29:21,879
make ready.

1042
01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:23,839
Fire!

1043
01:29:25,280 --> 01:29:27,199
Fourth rank, make ready.

1044
01:29:27,320 --> 01:29:29,319
Fire!

1045
01:29:31,840 --> 01:29:34,119
Make ready. Fire!

1046
01:29:35,360 --> 01:29:44,599
Fire!

1047
01:29:45,760 --> 01:29:48,159
-Make ready.
-Wait!

1048
01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:53,039
Retirement. They are too many.

1049
01:29:53,160 --> 01:29:55,639
Close the ranks. On the attack! On the attack.

1050
01:29:56,920 --> 01:29:59,399
FREDERICKSON: Second rank, form!

1051
01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:00,799
(Gunshot)

1052
01:30:01,880 --> 01:30:03,799
FREDERICKSON: Make ready!

1053
01:30:03,920 --> 01:30:05,759
Fire!

1054
01:30:08,960 --> 01:30:10,959
SHARPE: Form with me.

1055
01:30:13,240 --> 01:30:16,239
Lost turn. Long live the Emperor!

1056
01:30:16,360 --> 01:30:18,679
- Advance.
-The rifles are empty, sir.

1057
01:30:22,840 --> 01:30:26,239
Go back! Close the ranks. On the attack!

1058
01:30:29,760 --> 01:30:31,279
Halt.

1059
01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:52,559
Oh yes.

1060
01:31:01,440 --> 01:31:04,319
SOLDIER: Playing war. We lost.

1061
01:31:04,440 --> 01:31:06,359
(Gaston groans)

1062
01:31:06,480 --> 01:31:08,479
(Sighs)

1063
01:31:10,960 --> 01:31:15,239
- (Nervous laughter)
- Thank God.

1064
01:31:20,680 --> 01:31:22,439
(Moaning)

1065
01:31:50,280 --> 01:31:52,199
(Moans)

1066
01:31:52,320 --> 01:31:54,319
(Death rattle)

1067
01:32:13,840 --> 01:32:15,839
(Howls of agony)

1068
01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:19,519
À l'infirmière d'abord.

1069
01:32:26,160 --> 01:32:28,759
Brancard! Vous voyez un brancard?

1070
01:32:51,800 --> 01:32:53,799
Général Calvet.

1071
01:33:47,320 --> 01:33:49,239
(Whispers) Calvet's going.

1072
01:33:49,360 --> 01:33:51,359
What?

1073
01:33:58,800 --> 01:34:00,719
SHARPE: Where's he going?

1074
01:34:00,840 --> 01:34:04,439
Wait till you hear this, sir.
It's a courier from Wellington.

1075
01:34:07,440 --> 01:34:09,359
What news?

1076
01:34:09,480 --> 01:34:12,479
He's forced a passage through, 50 miles east.

1077
01:34:14,480 --> 01:34:16,479
East?

1078
01:34:18,160 --> 01:34:20,079
Bait.

1079
01:34:20,200 --> 01:34:22,119
That's all we were.

1080
01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:24,239
Just bloody bait.

1081
01:34:26,240 --> 01:34:28,159
And he'd have left us here to die.

1082
01:34:28,280 --> 01:34:30,199
Better get back,

1083
01:34:30,320 --> 01:34:32,319
tell our side ofthe story.

1084
01:34:34,360 --> 01:34:36,359
Come on, sir. Let's go home.

1085
01:34:39,880 --> 01:34:42,919
We're going home. We're going home, lads.

1086
01:34:43,040 --> 01:34:44,959
(Soldiers cheer)

1087
01:34:45,080 --> 01:34:46,999
SOLDIER: Come on!

1088
01:34:47,120 --> 01:34:49,039
Sir!

1089
01:34:49,160 --> 01:34:51,079
I've found a short cut home, sir.

1090
01:34:51,200 --> 01:34:53,439
What are you bloody waiting for, Captain?

1091
01:34:53,560 --> 01:34:55,559
I want to see my wife.

1092
01:34:57,560 --> 01:34:59,479
I want to see my wife before...

1093
01:34:59,600 --> 01:35:01,599
Major Sharpe.

1094
01:35:15,080 --> 01:35:17,079
Merci. Thank you.

1095
01:35:18,760 --> 01:35:20,759
Goodbye, ma'am.

1096
01:35:22,960 --> 01:35:26,599
And so, having made every provision
for the comfort ofthe wounded,

1097
01:35:26,720 --> 01:35:28,919
I made my way back as quickly as possible.

1098
01:35:29,040 --> 01:35:33,559
- How did Colonel Maquerre conduct himself?
- I cannot speak too highly of his conduct, sir.

1099
01:35:33,680 --> 01:35:38,679
Despite my pleading with him to return with me,
he insisted on staying behind to raise rebellion.

1100
01:35:38,800 --> 01:35:40,719
And Major Sharpe?

1101
01:35:40,840 --> 01:35:45,159
I'm afraid Major Sharpe was away at the time,
plundering a French convoy.

1102
01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:48,599
However, I have been reliably informed
by the Mayor ofArcon

1103
01:35:48,720 --> 01:35:50,759
that he was ambushed and overpowered.

1104
01:35:50,880 --> 01:35:54,999
I can only assume that he's either been killed
or surrendered to the French.

1105
01:35:55,120 --> 01:35:57,239
(Marching soldiers)

1106
01:35:57,360 --> 01:35:59,759
Well, er...I suppose we could ask him.

1107
01:35:59,880 --> 01:36:01,879
How do you mean, sir?

1108
01:36:11,200 --> 01:36:12,599
My lord.

1109
01:36:19,600 --> 01:36:21,519
Sir,

1110
01:36:21,640 --> 01:36:24,159
under the provisions ofthe Army Act,

1111
01:36:24,280 --> 01:36:27,599
I wish to charge Colonel Bampfylde
with cowardice

1112
01:36:27,720 --> 01:36:30,919
in the face ofthe enemy,
abandoning his position,

1113
01:36:31,040 --> 01:36:33,879
abandoning the wounded,

1114
01:36:34,000 --> 01:36:38,079
conspiring with the Compte de Maquerre -
a spy in the service of Bonaparte -

1115
01:36:38,200 --> 01:36:41,759
to desert his position
and throw the blame on Major Sharpe.

1116
01:36:41,880 --> 01:36:46,479
I further wish to report, sir,
that Major Sharpe tended the wounded,

1117
01:36:46,600 --> 01:36:50,519
successfully repulsed an attack
by General Calvet's brigade

1118
01:36:50,640 --> 01:36:53,599
and brought us all safely back home here, sir.

1119
01:36:53,720 --> 01:36:55,959
Is that all, Captain Palmer?

1120
01:36:56,080 --> 01:36:58,279
It's almost all, sir.

1121
01:37:06,680 --> 01:37:08,799
Field Marshal Wellington,

1122
01:37:08,920 --> 01:37:11,039
Captain Palmer assaulted me.

1123
01:37:11,160 --> 01:37:13,079
He struck a superior officer.

1124
01:37:13,200 --> 01:37:16,399
You're no longer a superior officer, Bampfylde.
Get out!

1125
01:37:16,520 --> 01:37:18,519
Sir.

1126
01:37:24,520 --> 01:37:28,039
Colonel Bampfylde, you're under close arrest
pending court martial.

1127
01:37:28,160 --> 01:37:30,159
You'll surrender your sword.

1128
01:37:32,560 --> 01:37:34,079
- My lord.
- Ross.

1129
01:37:34,200 --> 01:37:35,719
Sharpe.

1130
01:37:35,840 --> 01:37:37,759
You're looking well, sir.

1131
01:37:37,880 --> 01:37:39,799
Thank you, Sharpe.

1132
01:37:39,920 --> 01:37:43,999
- Kenefick's quinine did the trick, then?
- Oh, don't be a damned fool.

1133
01:37:44,120 --> 01:37:46,239
The brandy your wife brought me every day

1134
01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:48,039
did the trick.

1135
01:37:49,320 --> 01:37:51,319
The brandy my wife...?

1136
01:37:52,800 --> 01:37:54,719
You mean, she's still...

1137
01:37:54,840 --> 01:37:56,999
She's well, Sharpe. She's waiting for you.

1138
01:37:57,120 --> 01:37:59,919
- You'll find her with the wounded.
- Sir.

1139
01:38:12,360 --> 01:38:13,999
Jane!

1140
01:38:38,280 --> 01:38:40,279
Oh, God.

1141
01:38:42,280 --> 01:38:48,279
I thought I'd lost you.

1142
01:39:01,280 --> 01:39:04,039
When you've stopped wasting
my assistant's time...

1143
01:39:04,160 --> 01:39:06,519
Jane, I'd be obliged for your assistance.

1144
01:39:06,640 --> 01:39:11,159
I must take a man's foot off, and I want
somebody to hold his hand while I'm doing it.

1145
01:39:15,720 --> 01:39:17,639
He went to Wellington.

1146
01:39:17,760 --> 01:39:21,559
Wellington somehow wormed a little quinine
from the Spaniards.

1147
01:39:23,040 --> 01:39:25,039
Wellington saved my life.

1148
01:39:27,040 --> 01:39:29,039
He must think a lot of you, Richard.

1149
01:39:31,040 --> 01:39:33,039
So do I.

1150
01:39:41,040 --> 01:39:43,759
KENEFICK: Jane, the small saw, if you please.
