1
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:21,750
MAN: Ducos...

2
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,220
Damn it. It's Ducos.

3
00:01:26,820 --> 00:01:28,570
Major Ross

4
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,190
Hup!

5
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,030
Allez!

6
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,500
En garde! Allez!

7
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,030
(Battle cries)

8
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,510
- Allez!
- En garde!

9
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,030
Allez!

10
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:21,230
(Gunshot)

11
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,790
Arrh!

12
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:27,710
Attaque.

13
00:02:35,640 --> 00:02:37,430
Yah!

14
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,430
Good shooting, Sharpe.

15
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,950
How the devil did you reload in time
to take on that third fellow?

16
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,310
I was bluffing, sir. It was empty.

17
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,110
- I'm deeply touched you came after me.
- I had no choice, sir.

18
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:58,150
I'm getting married the day after tomorrow.
You're giving away the bride.

19
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,190
Oh, yes, of course.

20
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,950
- You forgot, sir?
- Oh, don't make a fuss, Sharpe.

21
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,950
I've got bigger things to think about
than your wedding.

22
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,390
I've located General Calvets camp.

23
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,860
Wellington will need to be told about this.

24
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:10,470
Général.

25
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,310
Sick parade, ready for inspection, sir!

26
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,070
All right. Let's get on with it.

27
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,150
Warts, sir.

28
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,190
He keeps picking them.

29
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,150
Well, don't, or I'll chop your hand off.

30
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,350
Erm...

31
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,870
He's got a big nasty boil on his er...

32
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,990
Oh, bloody hell.
I didn't know you could get one there.

33
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,350
Oh.

34
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,550
He's got the er...

35
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,590
(Whispers)

36
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,190
Pox? What are you whispering for, Harper?

37
00:05:10,280 --> 00:05:12,840
You think I haven't seen plenty of pox
in my time?

38
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,830
Oh, shit.

39
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,310
All right, but...

40
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,670
What's the matter with your face, Harper?

41
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:28,300
Wee bit of a barney, sir.
You should have seen the other fellow.

42
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,030
- What's the matter with your mouth?
- My mouth?

43
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,950
Yes, that opening between your nose
and your chin. Let's have a look.

44
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,870
- Aye, it's horrible.
- It'll have to come out, Dan.

45
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,470
It'll have to come out. Go and see the surgeon.

46
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,510
Dismissed!

47
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,750
Go on. Then. On the double.

48
00:05:44,840 --> 00:05:46,790
Patrick,

49
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,830
what's the matter?

50
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,270
I have a wee little bit of a twinge
in my tooth, ma'am.

51
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:57,630
But er... Mr. Sharpe says I should go to
the surgeon and have it pulled out by the roots.

52
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:05,620
Take oil of cloves for the pain, Patrick,
and a little tincture of brandy for sleep.

53
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,670
Oh, thank you, ma'am.

54
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,710
Brandy seems a great idea.

55
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,510
- And oil of cloves.
- Oh, yes, ma'am.

56
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,030
Don't be too hard on them, Richard.

57
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,070
For my sake.

58
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:27,190
Hey, nagging me already?
You've only been here a fortnight.

59
00:06:27,280 --> 00:06:30,550
The day after tomorrow,
I'll be able to nag you all the time.

60
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,750
Sir, Lord Wellington wishes to see you.

61
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,430
Hey!

62
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:45,990
DRILLMASTER: Left. Right. Left. Right.

63
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,030
Left. Right. Left.

64
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,070
- Major Sharpe.
- Sir.

65
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,430
I want you to meet the Compte de Maquerre.

66
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,070
Your servant, sir.

67
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,110
Major Sharpe, hm?

68
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,500
I've heard many tales of your bravery.

69
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,790
The Compte is from one of the oldest families
of Bordeaux.

70
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,710
He is also a sworn enemy of Bonaparte,

71
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,830
having remained resolutely loyal
to the Bourbons.

72
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,830
Now. The Count has come to us with a proposal.

73
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:18,750
He believes that the people of his area of
Bordeaux are ready to rise up against Napoleon.

74
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,110
If we were to put a force into the area.
Prior to our main attack.

75
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,660
He claims he could raise a rebellion.

76
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,460
Now, this rebellion could form
the basis for our invasion of France.

77
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:29,990
(Ross coughs)

78
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,390
Major General Ross, it has to be said,
is less than impressed.

79
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,750
Oh, no, no. It's an excellent proposal,

80
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:40,860
but I should mention that none of my agents
have reported that Bordeaux is ripe for rebellion.

81
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:48,790
With the greatest of respect, even the best of
your agents would not be as informed as myself.

82
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,990
I'm communicating to you
the feelings of my own people.

83
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,750
Their passionate hatred of Bonaparte.

84
00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:01,700
- We should have a look, Ross.
SHARPE: I couldn't agree more. Sir.

85
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,750
If we send in a small force -

86
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:08,070
the Prince of Wales's Own Volunteers
and an active commander - I'm sure we...

87
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,470
It's a damned long way
into French territory, Sharpe.

88
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:16,580
Mind you, if we had a fortified position as a base,
it would be a different matter.

89
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,140
What kind of fortified position
did you have in mind?

90
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:21,950
Oh, your castle.

91
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,510
- My castle?
- It's clearly marked.

92
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,030
It commands the sea, a major road.

93
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:32,070
It would make a first-class assembly point
for forces raising a rebellion.

94
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:37,020
Give us your castle, Count, and I may see
my way clear to supporting this expedition.

95
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:39,310
(Coughs)

96
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,150
I would give my life for my King,
never mind the castle,

97
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,190
but it's not so easy.

98
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:53,260
My mother and sister, who occupy the castle,
are confirmed supporters of Bonaparte.

99
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,030
They've turned the place over to the military.

100
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,470
Who commands it? What strength?

101
00:08:58,560 --> 00:09:01,390
The commander is Colonel Hernri Lassarn.

102
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,630
He has fifty men,

103
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,870
but he only needs ten.

104
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,190
The castle is virtually impregnable.

105
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,310
In that case, send in a company of riflemen
with the main force.

106
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,350
No, Sharpe.

107
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,430
We must defer to the Count.
No castle - no expedition.

108
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,150
Perhaps I have been too pessimistic.

109
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:30,710
It's many years since I lived there, but I could
draw maps of our castle from memory.

110
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,150
Maybe, with my help, a strong force

111
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,270
under a resolute commander
could take the castle.

112
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,350
I'm willing to try.

113
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,670
And that is exactly what we shall do, gentlemen.

114
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,990
- Dismissed.
- Yes, sir.

115
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,270
What do you make of him, Ross?

116
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:01,910
I don't know, but even if he was a complete fool,
I'm afraid we need him rather badly.

117
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,460
Calvet's troops are less than 100 miles away.

118
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,150
Calvet? That puts him on my flank
if I go for Toulouse.

119
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,310
A good job we found a way to call him off.

120
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,350
What better way
than to stir up trouble in Bordeaux, sir?

121
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,430
Yes. A bit rough on the poor fellows
we send in to take that castle.

122
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,630
Well, Sharpe's keen to command.
Promote him to colonel.

123
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,110
No, Ross. I've already chosen
the new commanding officer.

124
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:26,390
Oh? Who?

125
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,070
Colonel Horace Bampfylde.

126
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,990
A new arrival at camp. Still in his 20s.

127
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:33,870
A bit young, sir.

128
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:38,470
Bampfylde is a very young colonel
because his father is a very old general.

129
00:10:38,560 --> 00:10:43,190
I give him a good command and his father
gives me all the stores I need to get to Paris.

130
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,230
Have a brandy, Ross.

131
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,350
- Evening, Smithers.
- Sir.

132
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:57,060
This way, Major. I've got you and your lady
a nice place over here.

133
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,110
Good man.

134
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,110
(Laughter)

135
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,430
Don't worry about that, sir.

136
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,470
If it wasn't for you,
I'd have lost the other one, as well.

137
00:11:17,560 --> 00:11:19,790
Shall I start you off with a sherry, sir?

138
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,870
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

139
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:26,870
- Er, Smithers.
- Sir?

140
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,990
You told me I couldn't have that table.

141
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,030
What the blazes do you mean
giving it to some damn major?

142
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:36,980
I'm sorry, Colonel Bampfylde, the arrangements
for ladies' night were made some days ago.

143
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,830
Bloody cheek.

144
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,710
Colonel Bampfylde, this is Captain Frederickson.

145
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,750
Your servant, sir.

146
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:49,230
Colonel Bampfylde, may I in turn
introduce the Compte de Maquerre,

147
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,550
presently a personal guest
of Field Marshal Wellington.

148
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,510
Compte.

149
00:11:57,560 --> 00:11:59,510
Colonel.

150
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,470
Please, gentlemen, sit.

151
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,190
So, Frederickson, seen much action?

152
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:11,990
- Too much.
- Hm!

153
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:16,230
Well, I'm sorry to hear you say that.
I can't wait to get cracking, myself.

154
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,070
BAMPFYLDE: Oh!

155
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,430
Hey, you! Call this decent claret?

156
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,110
SMITHERS: I'm sorry. Sir.

157
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,510
- I'll see what I can do.
- And you've given us the wrong glasses.

158
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,190
You stupid bloody bastard!

159
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,590
Sir! There are ladies present.

160
00:12:37,680 --> 00:12:40,670
So I would have thought
there would be gentlemen present, also.

161
00:12:50,680 --> 00:12:52,430
Pompous you g ass

162
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,470
Rather neatly put, I thought.

163
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,550
If there are ladies present,
gentlemen should be present, also.

164
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,270
Not bad for a man raised in the ranks.

165
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,030
Eh. Compte?

166
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,630
What we French call a "bon mot".

167
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,870
A good thing well said.

168
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,910
What, him? A Johny-jump-up?

169
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,670
Bloody cheek.

170
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,990
Probably trying to impress the lady he's with.

171
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:18,910
Niece of Sir Henry Simmerson.

172
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,950
Simmerson of the Horse Guards?

173
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:25,070
Good God! What's a girl of good family like that
doing with a Johny-jump-up?

174
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,500
Seems women find him devilishly attractive.

175
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,750
Damn the claret. Get me a brandy.

176
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,790
- Brandy, and be quick about it.
- Sir.

177
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,020
Sit down.

178
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,110
For the last time, sir, lower your voice.

179
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:51,830
Evening, ma'am.

180
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,870
I'm sorry to see you in such company.

181
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:58,630
Sir, as I seem to have given you some offence,
I shall be happy to give you satisfaction.

182
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,190
Satisfaction?

183
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,030
What does that mean?

184
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,630
It means I'm calling you out, sir. A duel.

185
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,430
Don't be a damned fool, sir.

186
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:12,470
If Wellington catches you dueling,
you'll be on the next ship back to England.

187
00:14:12,560 --> 00:14:14,510
Wellington has his code, I have mine.

188
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,390
What does it take to make you fight me?
Wine in the face?

189
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,750
- Palmer, will you act as my second?
- Sir.

190
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,430
Your opponent's name?

191
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,750
Sharpe... of the 95th Rifles.

192
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,830
Favorite of the Prince of Wales.

193
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:39,070
PALMER: Hs that the same Sharpe who shot
three Dragoons while saving Wellington's life?

194
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,230
The same Sharpe
who took the Eagle at Talavera?

195
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:54,710
May I intercede?

196
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,390
Colonel Bampfylde is new in Spain.

197
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,790
Field Marshal Wellington's views on dueling
are very strict, sir.

198
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:09,460
Absolutely.

199
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:15,590
Er, Major Sharpe, may I apologize
for any offence I have caused you and the lady?

200
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,750
It doesn't do to duel
with your new commanding officer.

201
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,230
Apology accepted...

202
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:38,500
...sir.

203
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:42,550
Good night.

204
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,390
My new commanding officer.

205
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,790
SHARPE: Jane! Jane, it's me.
- Sssh! Sssh!

206
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,470
Oh, bloody hell.

207
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,510
I'm getting too old for this.

208
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:24,030
Do you mind if we go to bed now, Jane?
I've got to get up early in the morning.

209
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,440
And why must you get up so early,
Major Sharpe?

210
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,360
Well... as a matter of fact,

211
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,390
I'm getting married.

212
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,590
So all this has got to stop,

213
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:42,220
because tomorrow I'm turning over a new leaf.

214
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,270
Tomorrow...

215
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,270
...to fresh woods and pastures new.

216
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,150
It sounds like poetry.

217
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,190
It is poetry.

218
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,230
It's Milton.

219
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,710
Bugger Milton.

220
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:13,310
Do you, Richard Sharpe, take this woman,
Jane Gibbons, to be your lawful wedded wife?

221
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,350
To have and to hold,

222
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,790
in sickness and in health, till death do you part?

223
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:20,830
I do.

224
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,030
Do you. Jane Gibbons.

225
00:17:24,120 --> 00:17:27,870
Take this man, Richard Sharpe,
to be your lawful wedded husband?

226
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:29,910
To have and to hold,

227
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,540
in sickness and in health. Till death do you part?

228
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,070
I do.

229
00:17:37,360 --> 00:17:38,830
The ring.

230
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,670
I now pronounce you man and wife.

231
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,470
Till death do us part.

232
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,670
Come on. Double up. Double up.

233
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:12,550
Fall in on your markers.

234
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,790
SOLDIER: And prepare to move off.

235
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,790
Jane, you're burning.

236
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,830
Nonsense.

237
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,230
It was too warm last night.

238
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,230
Oh, Richard,
you've time to take that fresh linen to Ross.

239
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,990
You know how squalid these surgeons are.

240
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,980
It makes no difference to Ross what he wears.

241
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,470
He's that sick, he makes no sense.

242
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,510
Please, Richard. I promised.

243
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,510
Very well.

244
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,510
I'll come back and say goodbye.

245
00:18:58,560 --> 00:18:59,700
Don't.

246
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,150
We've already said goodbye.

247
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,500
I don't want to see you till you're back again,
safe in bed with me.

248
00:19:53,120 --> 00:19:55,150
- No.
- Ah, go on. Let me come with you.

249
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,990
Harper, Bampfylde has his own regimental
sergeant major. You'll have to stay here.

250
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,700
On top of which, you look like
you've got a cannonball in your gob.

251
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,310
It's just as well you keep following me around,

252
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,990
cos I'm off to see the surgeon - Kenefick.
Fall in behind me.

253
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,030
You fight dirty, so you do.

254
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,510
Ah, you do, so you do.

255
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,590
(Breathes heavily)

256
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,390
He's got the fever. You can't go in there.

257
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,830
Not unless you want to die.

258
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,070
What about you?

259
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,270
Jesuit's bark.

260
00:20:35,360 --> 00:20:38,310
We call it quinine. Worth its weight in gold.

261
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:43,670
I've saved this one dose for myself,
if the worst comes to the worst.

262
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,710
(Ross coughs)

263
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:47,750
How bad is he?

264
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,790
I've done the best I can.

265
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,550
He's wrapped in red flannel, bled regular,

266
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:56,180
fed gunpowder and brandy.
Pukes his guts up every half-hour.

267
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,230
Best I can do.

268
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,670
I'd like you to take a look at my wife, Kenefick.

269
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,710
I think she's got the fever.

270
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,750
I'm sorry, Major.

271
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:11,790
Though I'm not surprised.

272
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:13,830
She is often here.

273
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:15,870
Jane?

274
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,110
Jane's been here?

275
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,190
She brings fruit, fresh figs, clean linen.

276
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,390
You let my wife in this slaughterhouse?

277
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,430
Good God, Sharpe. You married her.

278
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,870
Don't you know no power on Earth
can stop a woman once her mind's made up?

279
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:35,870
I'm sorry.

280
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,870
She woke up sick this morning.

281
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,790
Skin like brown paper heated over a fire.

282
00:21:46,120 --> 00:21:48,070
Is that how it starts?

283
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,750
Maybe. Most fevers start like that.

284
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,670
You'll know in a day and a night
whether it's fatal.

285
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:55,710
I'm off on a mission.

286
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,550
In that case, Sharpe, you should say
your goodbyes to her properly.

287
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:22,350
I must see her!

288
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,270
She has the fever, Sharpe.

289
00:22:24,360 --> 00:22:27,980
If you go in there, you'll get the fever,
then you'll give it to our men.

290
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:32,470
Do you want our men facing the French
shaking with fever, Sharpe?

291
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,630
- Can't you move it faster?
- Carrying a lot of weight, sir.

292
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,990
Yes, so are you.

293
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,110
HARPER: Oh, Jesus!

294
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,470
(Mimics Harper) Oh, Jesus. Oh, Begorra.

295
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:27,750
HARRIS: I've got a stone in my boot.

296
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,070
(Hagman laughs)

297
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:32,700
(Groans)

298
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,750
Column. Halt.

299
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:51,380
Fever?

300
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:54,630
Fatigue, sir.

301
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,350
- Put him on the wagon, Sergeant Major.
- Sir.

302
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,310
My father says a sure cure for fatigue
is a fast flogging.

303
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,350
Give us a hand. Right.

304
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,550
Here. I'll take him.

305
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,630
PALMER: Column, forward!

306
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,150
Do you fancy a rest, Robinson?

307
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,630
No, I'm all right, Reilly. You go.

308
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:21,670
Thanks, Jack.

309
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:24,340
(Groans)

310
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:28,340
Sir!

311
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,080
- What's the matter with him?
- Fatigue, sir?

312
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,670
It looks more like fever to me.

313
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,830
- How can you tell that, sir?
- Why, it's simple, Robinson.

314
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:53,910
Just take a big long needle

315
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,030
and you stick it in his eyeball.

316
00:24:56,120 --> 00:24:58,270
If it's fever, he won't feel a thing.

317
00:24:59,920 --> 00:25:01,870
Where am I?

318
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,910
You're in a war, Reilly.

319
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,950
On one side there's you
and on the other side is me.

320
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,710
So, you and Robinson are on guard duty tonight.

321
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,990
And tomorrow night and the night after.

322
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:16,510
When you've finished, you'll know
the difference between fever and fatigue.

323
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,550
Now, get in line!

324
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,510
Do you think...
Would Sharpe have stuck a needle in my eye?

325
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,590
A needle? He hasn't got a needle.

326
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,630
He'd have used a bloody bayonet.

327
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,310
HAGMAN: I saw a maid milk a bull

328
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,750
Who's a fool now?

329
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:46,190
I saw a maid milk a bull

330
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,840
Every stroke a bucketful...

331
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,870
What, nobody put my tent up?

332
00:25:52,120 --> 00:25:53,950
Have some soup, sir.

333
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,470
Bloody soup? Ain't you got any tea?

334
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:03,830
If Harper was here, he'd have my tent up
and the tea brewing and my bed turned down.

335
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,480
That er... Colonel Bumfield, sir...

336
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,270
Bampfylde.

337
00:26:08,360 --> 00:26:09,910
Aye, him.

338
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,430
He's supping tea...

339
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,070
by his fire,

340
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,110
even as we speak. Sir.

341
00:26:20,360 --> 00:26:21,630
Hm.

342
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,430
(Horse neighs)

343
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:36,990
Whoa. Thank you.

344
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,470
Ahh. God, that tastes good.

345
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,940
- How come you're still a private soldier. Harper?
- Oh. It's my major. Sir. Major Sharpe.

346
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,030
He has it in for me, sir.

347
00:26:53,120 --> 00:26:55,680
You hear that, Palmer? That fool Sharpe again.

348
00:26:55,760 --> 00:27:00,270
When I told him I had a bit of a twinge in
my tooth, he threatened the surgeon on me, sir.

349
00:27:00,360 --> 00:27:02,820
Said I'd have to have it pulled out by the root.

350
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,790
- Charming.
- I told him all I needed to sort it out

351
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:07,910
was oil of cloves and a drop of brandy.

352
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:10,390
I er...

353
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,550
I managed to locate the oil of cloves.

354
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,590
Oh, I've got some brandy.

355
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,630
Fytch, fetch me that bottle of brandy.

356
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:17,860
Sir.

357
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:20,910
I swear I'll bloody kill him.

358
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:24,870
Thanks.

359
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,710
- Medicinal purposes only.
- You're a decent man.

360
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,310
Harper! Where were you hiding?

361
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,150
How dare you frighten this poor fellow, Sharpe.

362
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,620
Hiding? W-What do you mean, hiding?

363
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,670
Isn't he one of your soldiers?

364
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:40,870
Yes, sir.

365
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:42,510
Sorry, sir.

366
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,590
Good. Glad to hear it.

367
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,830
Go and get the bedwarmer, Harper.

368
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,870
Bedwarmer? Oh, yes, sir

369
00:27:54,360 --> 00:27:56,310
I must say. Sharpe.

370
00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:00,350
I'm a strict disciplinarian,
but I don't hold with terrorizing the troops.

371
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:01,990
I've finished the maps, sir.

372
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:03,220
Oh. Splendid.

373
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,230
- Would you hike to look at them?
- Lay 'em on the chest.

374
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:09,270
Major Sharpe?

375
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:12,910
May we have your attention?

376
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:23,990
(Sighs)

377
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,710
What would you like most in the world,
Robinson?

378
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,710
A woman. You?

379
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,230
- A drink.
- I'll give you a drink for a woman.

380
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,270
I'll give you a woman for a drink.

381
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,990
Aye, that's why we're friends.
Share and share alike.

382
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,030
Who goes there?

383
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,070
- A friend.
- Pass, friend.

384
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,750
SHARPE: My compliments. Maquerre.
These are first-class maps.

385
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,950
I think I could find my way
around that damn castle in the dark.

386
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,230
Time for bed.

387
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:07,990
Tomorrow we'll be in sight of the castle.

388
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:12,980
Tomorrow to fresh woods
and pastures new.

389
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:17,750
Fiddle strikes up

390
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,990
SOLDIER: Here you go. Lads. All right?

391
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,030
(Laughter)

392
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:43,750
Tea?

393
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:45,790
Thank you, Patrick.

394
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,070
No need to thank me, sir.

395
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,110
It's an absolute pleasure.

396
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:07,710
You'll be missing her, then?

397
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:12,540
Yeah.

398
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,350
She'll be fine, you know. She will be fine.

399
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:23,460
Yeah.

400
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:31,990
(Twig snaps)

401
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,510
Who goes there?

402
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,510
Pass, friend.

403
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:43,950
(Sword is drawn)

404
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,270
Reilly, do you hear something?

405
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:52,350
Reilly?

406
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:53,870
No! Reilly!

407
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:55,390
Reilly?

408
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,110
A French patrol?

409
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,830
They would have stolen the horses, sir.

410
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,270
Don't be silly, Sharpe. We're in France now.

411
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,630
Any passing peasant could be a friend or foe.

412
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,310
All right. Carry on.

413
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,940
(Clears throat) Would you like to say
a few words, Robinson?

414
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:44,590
(Sniffs)

415
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:55,430
Good luck, Reilly.

416
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,070
(Sniffs) Have a drink on me.

417
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,870
I've a terrible toothache, Reilly.
I need this a lot more than you do.

418
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,150
Oh, shite.

419
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,230
Column. Halt.

420
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,990
Major Sharpe! There it is, the bugger.

421
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,430
Glass, Palmer.

422
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,780
You don't need a glass, sir.
It's so bloody big, you can't miss it.

423
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,270
Right.

424
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:48,870
This is the castle.

425
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:50,710
This is the French high road.

426
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:52,350
We'll split forces here.

427
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:53,790
Split?

428
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:58,700
Sharpe, you and Captain Frederickson
take the Rifles and scout the high road.

429
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,470
The Compte says
you might intercept reinforcements.

430
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:08,030
Meanwhile, myself and the Prince of Wales's
Own Volunteers will attack the castle.

431
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,390
Are you sure you don't want us in support, sir?

432
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,430
Damn you, Sharpe!

433
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:16,060
You've got your orders.
What are you dawdling about here for?

434
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,900
Frederickson! Form the Rifles!

435
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,990
60th Rifles, prepare to march!

436
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,660
Rifles, march!

437
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,710
Left heel.

438
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:02,430
The Prince of Wales's Own Volunteers,
prepare to advance.

439
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,470
Sergeant Major.

440
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,990
Company, forward march!

441
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:19,910
Keep in line.

442
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,110
Keep it tight.

443
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:26,990
Keep going, men.

444
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:29,390
Aux armes!

445
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:30,910
Aux armes.

446
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,230
Be brave!

447
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,270
This is a day for heroes.

448
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:43,540
Fermez les volets.

449
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,750
(Moans softly)

450
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,030
On your feet, son. On your feet.

451
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,500
PALMER: Hold the line, men.

452
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,550
Hold the line.

453
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:11,190
Apprêtez.

454
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:14,950
Feu!

455
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:19,820
Aaargh!

456
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,070
It's all right, Palmer. I'm all right.

457
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,110
Come on! Forward!

458
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,150
(Screams)

459
00:36:59,240 --> 00:37:01,390
The Colors are down. Take the Colors!

460
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,670
Take the Colors. Move on.

461
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:05,710
Move on!

462
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:08,630
Sergeant!

463
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,110
Move on! Move on!

464
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:16,310
Come on! Get up.

465
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,070
Come on!

466
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:19,870
Up! Come on!

467
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,070
Up, boys, up!

468
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:31,980
Come on! Come on!

469
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,270
HARPER: Company, halt.

470
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:46,070
Bampfylde's no soldier. He's a bloody butcher.

471
00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,110
Begging your pardon. Sir.

472
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,150
(Explosions)

473
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,430
The ladders aren't long enough.

474
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:03,470
The poor bastards.

475
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,030
(Screaming)

476
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:16,430
Hold the ladders!

477
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:19,110
Get up those ladders!

478
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:23,590
Oh, my God. We're all going to die.

479
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,710
BAMPFYLDE: We're all going to die.

480
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:33,550
- I think we should fall back, sir.
- Do you think so, Palmer?

481
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:37,310
Yes. Yes, whatever you say.
Fall back. Give the order to fall back.

482
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,150
Fall back!

483
00:38:39,240 --> 00:38:41,230
Argh!

484
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:43,270
- Fall back!
(Bugle sounds)

485
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,270
Feu.

486
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:55,550
(Explosion)

487
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:10,870
The men are restless, sir.

488
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:12,910
I know

489
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,350
There's a debt to be settled.

490
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,510
I'm going in that castle, Frederickson.

491
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,230
I don't know how, but I'm going in.

492
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:27,230
(Moaning)

493
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,230
Easy, there, lad. Easy. That's it.

494
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:35,270
Let's get it tied up.

495
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,470
We had bad luck today, Colonel Bampfylde...

496
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,350
...but we can have better luck tomorrow.

497
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:57,630
What do you mean
we could have better luck tomorrow?

498
00:39:57,720 --> 00:40:02,150
Remember our mission, Colonel Bampfylde?
It was not to take the castle,

499
00:40:02,240 --> 00:40:04,310
but to raise rebellion.

500
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:08,870
It's rebellion that will give Wellington
the confidence to come behind you.

501
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:12,710
How can we be sure the people here
are ready to rise against Bonaparte?

502
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:19,030
Because I'll ride to the nearest town tonight
and I'll bring back the mayor.

503
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,070
You'll be satisfied.

504
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:24,950
Would you?

505
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,430
Would you do that for me?

506
00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:31,990
Bless you, Compte.

507
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:37,510
Goodbye.

508
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,390
- What we need is blood.
HAGMAN: Aye.

509
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:45,430
HAGMAN: Blood.

510
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:56,390
You want my tooth?

511
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,430
Mother of Jesus No way

512
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,470
A surgeon will have to take it out, anyway.

513
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:04,150
But you're not a surgeon.
Besides, you've no pincers.

514
00:41:08,720 --> 00:41:13,840
What kind... What kind of a human being
carries pincers

515
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:15,870
around in his pocket?

516
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:20,430
I collect perfect teeth from dead Frogs.

517
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:24,350
When I get back to England
I intend to have a full set made.

518
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,350
All right. Let's get on with it. Strip him.

519
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:30,990
(Shirt is ripped)

520
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:34,110
Here. Quick, give me a drink.

521
00:41:35,240 --> 00:41:36,630
Brandy.

522
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:39,710
Not too much.

523
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:41,390
It isn't your tooth.

524
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:43,910
- Would you like me to do it?
- You? He'll do it.

525
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:47,230
You might take an extra one
for your perfect set back in London.

526
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,190
I have grand teeth, you know.

527
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,150
Except for this one, the bastard.

528
00:41:51,240 --> 00:41:53,990
Of course, you should use a screw claw.

529
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,230
Now, don't pull.

530
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,110
Push the tooth down towards the jawbone.

531
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,830
Twist it to the left,

532
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,550
then to the right.

533
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:06,590
Then slide it out.

534
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:09,990
Right.

535
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:13,950
Open up.

536
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:18,510
(Moans)

537
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,550
Aaargh!

538
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:23,950
- Sorry. It slipped.
- Here. Let me do it.

539
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:26,230
You?! I'll do it.

540
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,270
God damn you.

541
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:33,510
- Ahhh!
- Come on, Pat. Pull it.

542
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:35,550
That's it. You can do it, sarge.

543
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,590
That's it, sarge. Go on.

544
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,630
Go on! Go on!

545
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:43,110
- Get it out.
- Come on.

546
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,870
Go on, Pat. Go on. Get the bugger out.

547
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:47,910
Pull, Pat. Pull!

548
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,270
ALL: Yes!

549
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:51,550
Get him on a stretcher.

550
00:42:53,240 --> 00:42:55,590
Go on. Come on, Pat. On you get.

551
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:57,630
On you get. That's it.

552
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:01,990
Don't waste it.

553
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,030
SHARPE: Spit it on your chest.

554
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:08,350
That's it.

555
00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:15,270
(Lassan shouts)

556
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:17,310
(Frederickson replies)

557
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,710
We're in.

558
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:16,390
FRENCHMAN: Qu'est-ce qui se passe?

559
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:18,390
SHARPE: Tell him.

560
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:27,990
LASSAN: Aux armes! Aux armes!

561
00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:33,030
Blow the bugle!

562
00:44:40,720 --> 00:44:43,310
That's our bugle, sir. Blowing the rally.

563
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:46,750
PALMER: Some of our men
have got into that bloody castle.

564
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:49,190
(Gunfire)

565
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:52,270
Sergeant Major Waters, call the men to arms!

566
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:55,550
Argh!

567
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,070
(Battle cries)

568
00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:17,950
Arrêtez le feu.

569
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:20,470
SHARPE: Stop firing.

570
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:24,030
Stop firing! They've surrendered.

571
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,030
Arrêtez de tirer.

572
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:29,270
Right. Get their guns.

573
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,740
Come on. Come on. On the double. Lads.

574
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:36,750
Come on. Quickly.

575
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:46,830
I am Colonel Henri Lassan.

576
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:48,870
We surrender to you.

577
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:52,740
I am Major Richard Sharpe
of the Prince of Wales's Own Volunteers.

578
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:54,790
I accept your surrender.

579
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:59,550
Non! You English brutes, you can't fight fair.
You have to trick your way into the castle.

580
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:03,750
Such a trick is perfectly acceptable, ma'am.
It's called a "ruse de guerre".

581
00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:06,590
I don't care.
The Emperor would never stoop so low.

582
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:08,630
It was cowardly!

583
00:46:08,720 --> 00:46:10,870
It was contemptible and... and...

584
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,110
- Conniving?
- Yes, conniving.

585
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:15,630
You speak excellent English, ma'am.

586
00:46:15,720 --> 00:46:19,260
So, go and tell your fellow countrymen
they're free to go.

587
00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:23,990
Free to go?

588
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,030
You are not keeping prisoners?

589
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:27,830
They're free to go.

590
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:29,670
And you must go, too.

591
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,060
(Whispers in French)

592
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,390
LASSAN: Mais allez-y.

593
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:38,430
Vous êtes une femme.

594
00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:40,470
- Demandez-lui.
- Oui.

595
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:48,870
My mother, Madame Maquerre,
she's terribly ill with the fever. She's dying.

596
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:51,310
She's too sick to move.

597
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:53,750
I should like to stay here.

598
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:58,070
Make her last days here
as easy as possible, to look after her, please.

599
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:02,110
Very well.

600
00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:04,950
You're welcome to stay,
Mademoiselle Maquerre.

601
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:06,830
Thank you.

602
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:08,870
You may keep your sword, sir.

603
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:12,150
Thank you, Major Sharpe.

604
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:17,030
As soon as my men have finished piling arms,
we will leave.

605
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:23,550
BAMPFYLDE: Secure the fort, men!

606
00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:26,630
All right, lads. Spread out. Spread out, lads.

607
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:35,070
Stand aside.

608
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:45,580
What the bloody hell's going on here, Sharpe?

609
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:48,240
Frogs surrender and you let them swan around?

610
00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:50,700
You haven't even taken that chap's sword.

611
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:53,230
Look, I said he could keep it.

612
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:56,910
Sir.

613
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:04,590
Now, if we put these men in cells,
we'll have to guard them day and night.

614
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:08,790
What with the wounded,
we just haven't got the men to do that, sir.

615
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:13,790
Very well.

616
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:15,470
Send them packing.

617
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,020
And you might as well
get back to your mission, Sharpe.

618
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:20,070
I'm in charge here.

619
00:48:23,720 --> 00:48:25,670
All right, lads.

620
00:48:34,720 --> 00:48:36,670
A pretty girl, Palmer.

621
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:40,380
Never had a French one before.
A first time for everything, what?

622
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:48,150
- Mademoiselle.
- Monsieur?

623
00:48:48,240 --> 00:48:52,470
I'd be greatly obliged if you'd do me the honor
of dining with me this evening.

624
00:48:54,240 --> 00:48:55,990
Au revoir, monsieur.

625
00:48:57,520 --> 00:48:59,470
Come on.

626
00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:42,030
(Sheep bleat)

627
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:47,350
(Frederickson pants)

628
00:50:03,720 --> 00:50:05,670
SHARPE: A French convoy.

629
00:50:07,240 --> 00:50:09,190
Nice pickings.

630
00:50:11,240 --> 00:50:12,790
Right.

631
00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:17,150
Frederickson, take half the men.
Get behind that wall.

632
00:50:17,240 --> 00:50:22,180
I'll take the other half, get in that ditch.
Catch 'em in t'crossfire.

633
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:25,030
Harper, you get yourself in that farmhouse.

634
00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:28,430
When the head of the column reaches you,
give 'em a volley.

635
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:30,470
Then it's up and at 'em.

636
00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:32,110
Go.

637
00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:41,590
Get to your post, Robinson.

638
00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:45,070
Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.

639
00:50:47,720 --> 00:50:49,550
(Sheep bleat)

640
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:51,470
(Rustling)

641
00:50:57,960 --> 00:50:59,510
Sssh!

642
00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:03,630
MAN: Brigitte!

643
00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:06,190
Husband?

644
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:09,310
Non. Papa.

645
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,070
Good man, Maquerre.
Is this the mayor?

646
00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:49,590
Bonjour.

647
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:51,230
Monsieur.

648
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:54,710
- He speaks English, sir.
- Yes.

649
00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:56,750
Oh, thank heavens for that.

650
00:51:56,840 --> 00:52:02,390
My name is Colonel Bampfylde, commander of
His Britannic Majesty's forces here in Bordeaux.

651
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:07,620
You may deal with me
as with Wellington himself.

652
00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:11,150
I can see the Colonel is a great commander.

653
00:52:11,240 --> 00:52:14,190
As Mayor of Arcon. I too am a commander.

654
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:17,470
I command all the civilian forces in this region.

655
00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:22,950
We are ready to raise the flag of rebellion
against the usurper Napoleon Bonaparte

656
00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:29,790
and to declare our loyalty to the true king,
Louis Philippe, Prince de Bourbon.

657
00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:34,390
Well, well.
Wellington will be glad to hear this, what.

658
00:52:35,520 --> 00:52:39,110
With all due respects, Colonel Bampfylde,
the sooner the better.

659
00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:42,150
Something on your mind, Maquerre?

660
00:52:42,240 --> 00:52:47,590
Rumors of the rebellion have already reached
General Calvet. He's marching in this direction.

661
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,070
Er... what do you suggest we do?

662
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:59,550
Go home. Tell Wellington to speed his advance.

663
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:02,830
Go home?

664
00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:05,270
Remember, our mission was twofold.

665
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:09,110
First, to make sure
that the region was ready for rebellion.

666
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,150
Second, to take the castle.

667
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:14,230
You've done both.

668
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:16,270
You'll go home a hero.

669
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,590
I say, steady on.

670
00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:23,270
What about Major Sharpe?

671
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:25,710
Erm... Erm...

672
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:28,510
Major Sharpe has erm...

673
00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:31,390
How should I say? An accident.

674
00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:37,270
Yesterday, he met General Calvet's
advance guard.

675
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:42,670
I'm awfully sorry. I hear there were no survivors.

676
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:45,750
Good God.

677
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:49,710
We'd better be off, Maquerre, what?

678
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:55,230
Before you go, destroy all the defenses.
We don't want them falling into the wrong hands.

679
00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:59,190
- Yes, yes, yes. I agree.
- You must also decide about the wounded.

680
00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:03,830
BAMPFYLDE: We'll never get back
if we're carrying all those.

681
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:05,870
We'll have to leave them here.

682
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:09,070
What will Wellington say
if I leave all the wounded here?

683
00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:12,670
My sister Catherine will look after them.
They'll be in her care.

684
00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:16,150
- Be sure they'll be treated as prisoners of war.
- Oh, yes.

685
00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:20,990
Good. That makes sense to me.
I'm much obliged to you, sir.

686
00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:24,820
Right. Let's get back to Wellington.

687
00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:27,790
You will back me up on all this,
won't you, Maquerre?

688
00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:32,030
Of course, sir, but first,
allow me to say goodbye to my mother.

689
00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:34,230
Oh, of course.

690
00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:41,830
(Door is unlatched)

691
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:18,870
(Moans)

692
00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:30,550
Make ready

693
00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:36,390
You see the troopers?

694
00:56:37,720 --> 00:56:39,510
HARPER: Well, take them down.

695
00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:42,430
We don't want them running away
with any messages.

696
00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:45,270
Steady. Now.

697
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:47,470
Fire!

698
00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:54,390
- Fire!
- Couvert.

699
00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:57,110
(Screaming)

700
00:56:57,200 --> 00:56:58,590
Fire!

701
00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:07,630
Tirez! Mon Dieu. Tirez!

702
00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:19,600
- Up and at 'em!
HAGMAN: Come on, lads!

703
00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:38,710
HARPER: Keep it up, Robinson.
The rest of you, follow me.

704
00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:01,150
Halt! Stop.

705
00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:03,190
Stop.

706
00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:04,950
Stop firing.

707
00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:06,990
Stop firing. They've had enough.

708
00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:10,150
Whoa, Patrick. Leave it.

709
00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:13,590
All right, boys. Let's get the loot.

710
00:58:13,680 --> 00:58:15,630
SOLDIERS: Yes!

711
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,190
Let's see what they've got. Over here!

712
00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:22,870
What's this?

713
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:26,430
I've got some silver here.

714
00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:32,910
(Contents rattle)
- Gold?

715
00:58:34,040 --> 00:58:35,470
Key!

716
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:38,430
- Fine. I take it with your hand attached.
- No, no.

717
00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:54,870
What is it? Tobacco?

718
00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:05,350
It's Jesuit's bark.

719
00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:10,910
It's quinine.

720
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:15,190
- Sawbones.
- Get it off him.

721
00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:17,510
Guard it with your life.

722
00:59:17,600 --> 00:59:19,550
(Rowdy chatter)

723
00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:25,750
What luck. Voltaire!

724
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:29,230
- Has anybody seen Robinson?
(Brigitte screams)

725
00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:31,270
(Screams)

726
00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:34,310
Will.

727
00:59:36,360 --> 00:59:38,310
(Giggling)

728
00:59:40,680 --> 00:59:42,110
Robinson!

729
00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:44,150
Are you a Catholic. Robinson?

730
00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:47,430
- No, why?
- If you are, I'd say an act of contrition for you.

731
00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:49,070
Have a drink, anyway.

732
00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:57,950
- I'm sorry, Frederickson.
- Good God, Sharpe! Not for that?

733
00:59:58,040 --> 00:59:59,990
String him up!

734
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:03,590
Tie a hard knot, Hagman.
Break his neck. I don't want him to suffer.

735
01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:09,660
I'm sorry, Robinson. You're a brave soldier,
but if I don't hang you, Wellington'll hang me.

736
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:12,710
- No, Sharpe. You can't!
- Look, you know the rules.

737
01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:17,740
These people are on our side. Raping and
robbing will turn the whole population against us.

738
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,140
That's why Wellington strings 'em up.

739
01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:22,510
It's only rape if the girl says so.

740
01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:24,550
Ask the girl, sir.

741
01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:35,070
All right, then.

742
01:00:35,160 --> 01:00:36,950
- Harris.
- Sir.

743
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:45,990
Oui.

744
01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:52,510
There you are, sir. The girl's happy, sir.

745
01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:54,030
Non!

746
01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:56,070
Her father isn't.

747
01:00:57,200 --> 01:00:59,350
Give me the sovereigns, Frederickson.

748
01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:05,630
They're for you.

749
01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:08,150
Harper, take Robinson behind the barn.

750
01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:11,190
Teach him he does not make free
with the French girls.

751
01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:12,550
Sir!

752
01:01:18,320 --> 01:01:22,670
Harris, ask the old man
if he'd rise against Bonaparte.

753
01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:28,710
Est-il vrai que vous êtes prêt
á vous lever contre Bonaparte?

754
01:01:34,040 --> 01:01:36,710
So much
for the Compte de Maquerre's rebellion.

755
01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:38,750
(Explosion)

756
01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:42,470
That's the bloody fort!

757
01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:03,390
'Ey up.

758
01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:05,750
- What's happened?
- Where is everybody?

759
01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:08,030
Steady. Lads. Steady.

760
01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:10,070
Where the hell is everybody?

761
01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:13,150
Where's Bampfylde?

762
01:02:13,240 --> 01:02:15,270
Why have they blown the bloody gates?

763
01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:19,070
SOLDIER: Hey, it's the sarge.

764
01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:21,110
Sir! Wounded men, sir.

765
01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:25,470
Frederickson, get that surgeon over here.

766
01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:26,700
Sir.

767
01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:28,230
Here.

768
01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:37,260
Maquerre said you were dead, Sharpe.

769
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:41,750
Did he?

770
01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:45,750
Where's Bampfylde?

771
01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:47,790
He's gone.

772
01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:50,790
Maquerre came back
with the Mayor of Arcon, sir.

773
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:55,630
He said Bordeaux was ready
to rise in rebellion against Napoleon.

774
01:02:55,720 --> 01:02:59,260
Bampfylde cleared off
to give Wellington the good news.

775
01:02:59,360 --> 01:03:02,510
So why did he spike the guns?
Why did he blow the gates?

776
01:03:02,600 --> 01:03:08,110
Maquerre persuaded him to do it. He didn't want
the castle falling into the wrong hands.

777
01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:11,590
My hands.

778
01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:17,910
The man with Maquerre, the mayor,
what did he look like?

779
01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:19,950
Er...

780
01:03:20,040 --> 01:03:23,390
His face was like a dead fish.

781
01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:26,270
Round glasses. Didn't look much like a mayor.

782
01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:28,820
He seemed to be giving Maquerre his orders.

783
01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:32,350
Ducos

784
01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:36,630
If Ducos was here, Calvet can't be far behind.

785
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:38,790
He'll get here before Wellington.

786
01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:41,830
- We're all going to die here, Sharpe.
- No, we're not.

787
01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:46,830
Take out the bullet.

788
01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:50,700
C'est trop près de l'artère principale.

789
01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:52,870
He says it's too close to the main artery.

790
01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:56,270
Take it out.

791
01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:58,310
He dies - you die.

792
01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:14,870
(Whimpers)

793
01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:18,990
Argh.

794
01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:24,750
Argh!

795
01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:29,350
(Sobs)

796
01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:39,830
You've done well, Palmer.

797
01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:43,630
You've done well, son.

798
01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:45,670
I'm much obliged, Sharpe.

799
01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:16,350
Well?

800
01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:19,870
- They've flooded the powder magazine.
- It's like porridge.

801
01:05:19,960 --> 01:05:21,910
(Sighs)

802
01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:25,390
So, what have we got?

803
01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:27,430
18 rounds per man, sir.

804
01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:29,470
18 rounds.

805
01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:35,590
Our only chance
is to get 'em to come through them gates.

806
01:05:35,680 --> 01:05:38,110
So don't repair the gates. Leave them open.

807
01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:41,390
We'll get them into the courtyard.

808
01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:44,710
I hope our volleys are enough
to put the fear of God into them.

809
01:05:44,800 --> 01:05:48,230
- And if our volleys don't stop them?
- Any other suggestions?

810
01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:52,590
We could go back to camp, tell Wellington
what Bampfylde's been up to here.

811
01:05:52,680 --> 01:05:54,630
He'd hang him from the nearest tree.

812
01:05:54,720 --> 01:05:56,670
Yeah, well, I'm staying here.

813
01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:58,710
Yeah? Why is that, Harper?

814
01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:03,230
I've got another bit of a toothache.
I wouldn't want to lose another tooth, would I?

815
01:06:04,360 --> 01:06:06,630
I'll take my chances with General Calvet.

816
01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:16,230
I beg your pardon, sir,
but Miss Catherine would like to see you.

817
01:06:16,320 --> 01:06:18,270
All right.

818
01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:23,470
(Door is unlatched)

819
01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:34,830
My mother has the fever.

820
01:06:34,920 --> 01:06:36,870
She's dying.

821
01:06:36,960 --> 01:06:39,070
I'm sorry to hear that, miss.

822
01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:43,230
I am sorry for you.
I hear your wife is dying of the same fever.

823
01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:47,550
That's why you wanted the quinine?

824
01:06:47,640 --> 01:06:49,430
For your wife?

825
01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:53,030
Yes.

826
01:06:57,080 --> 01:07:00,750
It's very difficult for me to ask a favor
of an English officer.

827
01:07:02,800 --> 01:07:04,750
But I must, for her.

828
01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:08,990
It is not likely you will see your wife again.

829
01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:11,990
- Calvet's coming.
- So I hear.

830
01:07:12,080 --> 01:07:14,870
But if you leave now and take the quinine,
you can save her life.

831
01:07:14,960 --> 01:07:17,230
I'm sorry, miss. I can't leave.

832
01:07:17,320 --> 01:07:19,270
I must do my duty.

833
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:21,510
Your duty? To whom?

834
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:24,630
To Bampfylde, that coward,
who left his wounded here?

835
01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:26,670
My duty is to Wellington, miss.

836
01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:31,190
My orders were to take the castle
and hold it until he advances.

837
01:07:35,240 --> 01:07:37,800
My God. The invasion of France has begun.

838
01:07:41,600 --> 01:07:44,110
This is the beginning of the end, isn't it?

839
01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:47,990
I'm sorry, miss. I must be about my duties.

840
01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:50,030
No. Wait. I haven't finished.

841
01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:53,070
If you stay here, you will die,
so why not give me the quinine now?

842
01:07:53,160 --> 01:07:55,110
Put yourself in my place.

843
01:07:56,640 --> 01:08:01,310
If I give you the quinine, I may as well go and
tell my men that none of them are going home.

844
01:08:02,880 --> 01:08:04,830
What would you do?

845
01:08:07,280 --> 01:08:09,230
I would do the same as you.

846
01:08:10,760 --> 01:08:13,990
I would keep the quinine
and hope to see my wife.

847
01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:32,110
(Catherine sobs)

848
01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:44,510
Show the Colors, boys.

849
01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:47,790
I want three cheers for Field Marshal Wellington.

850
01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:49,310
- Hip, hip.
MEN: Huzzah.

851
01:08:49,400 --> 01:08:50,350
Hip, hip.

852
01:08:50,440 --> 01:08:51,830
Huzzah!

853
01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:53,470
- Hip, hip.
- Huzzah!

854
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:00,430
- Have you still got that box?
- Yes, sir.

855
01:09:00,520 --> 01:09:04,300
- Tell Harris to take it to Mme Maquerre's room.
- All of it, sir?

856
01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:06,670
- All of it.
- Is that an order or a request?

857
01:09:06,760 --> 01:09:09,140
That's me telling you.

858
01:09:09,240 --> 01:09:11,750
Are you not going to save some
for your wife, sir?

859
01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:48,870
Shite.

860
01:10:00,320 --> 01:10:02,270
(Drumbeats)

861
01:10:08,240 --> 01:10:11,430
HAGMAN: For I am thine and thou art mine

862
01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:15,750
No man shall uncomfort thee

863
01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:20,350
We'll join our hands in wedded bands

864
01:10:20,440 --> 01:10:24,390
And married we shall be

865
01:10:27,440 --> 01:10:29,390
It'll all be over tomorrow, sir.

866
01:10:32,440 --> 01:10:34,390
Then you can go back and see her, eh?

867
01:10:37,360 --> 01:10:39,310
Yeah.

868
01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:55,870
Médicament, Mère.

869
01:11:17,520 --> 01:11:19,470
Thanks, Pat.

870
01:11:19,560 --> 01:11:21,510
I was thinking.

871
01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:24,310
Things could be an awful lot worse, you know.

872
01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:27,350
How the bloody hell could things get worse, Pat?

873
01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:32,510
We could be without the cup of tea.

874
01:12:26,680 --> 01:12:28,870
Bon.

875
01:13:03,880 --> 01:13:04,830
What are you doing?

876
01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:07,870
I'm casting my own bullets, sir,
and grinding down powder.

877
01:13:07,960 --> 01:13:10,910
Then I can hit them from 400 yards,
instead of 200 yards.

878
01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:14,870
- Why don't you wait for them?
- At 200 yards, they're running. Too hard to hit.

879
01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:17,830
At 400 yards. They think you can't hit 'em.

880
01:13:17,920 --> 01:13:20,870
They swagger about,
all cocky like, not taking cover.

881
01:13:20,960 --> 01:13:22,180
Yeah.

882
01:13:22,280 --> 01:13:25,270
Frederickson says
you're the best shot in the Brigade.

883
01:13:26,640 --> 01:13:28,070
I reckon so, sir.

884
01:13:28,160 --> 01:13:29,550
You hear that, Hagman?

885
01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:32,590
He reckons he's the best shot in the Brigade.

886
01:13:32,680 --> 01:13:34,830
Aye.

887
01:13:34,920 --> 01:13:37,220
I have heard, sir.

888
01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:45,510
If you grind it too fine,
it'll blow your bloody head off.

889
01:13:45,600 --> 01:13:49,110
Then nobody'll know who's t'best shot.
Thee or me.

890
01:14:04,480 --> 01:14:06,430
CATHERINE: Major Sharpe.

891
01:14:07,760 --> 01:14:09,870
It's my mother. The fever has broken.

892
01:14:11,480 --> 01:14:13,030
That's good.

893
01:14:15,800 --> 01:14:17,750
I'm a good Frenchwoman...

894
01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:23,950
...but if I were a man, I would be a soldier.

895
01:14:25,080 --> 01:14:26,830
And if I were a soldier,

896
01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:29,510
I would have sworn an oath of loyalty
to my Emperor.

897
01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:32,950
- I understand.
- But I am not a soldier.

898
01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:36,750
And so I can tell you something.

899
01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:39,830
And what is that, mademoiselle?

900
01:14:41,160 --> 01:14:43,830
The cellar, it is full of oyster shells.

901
01:14:43,920 --> 01:14:45,870
Burn them.

902
01:14:52,440 --> 01:14:54,390
Oyster shells?

903
01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:10,150
What happens when you burn oyster shells?

904
01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:14,630
You get ash, I suppose.

905
01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:16,670
I was born in a fishing village, sir.

906
01:15:16,760 --> 01:15:20,300
The fishermen used to burn oyster shells
all the time.

907
01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:23,870
- Why?
- To whitewash their houses. Sir.

908
01:15:23,960 --> 01:15:29,550
When you burn oyster shells, you get lime.
You get that in the eyes, you go blind.

909
01:16:19,520 --> 01:16:21,470
(Floorboards creak)

910
01:16:33,360 --> 01:16:35,310
I can't sleep.

911
01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:38,350
I can't sleep, either.

912
01:16:38,440 --> 01:16:40,630
Why, because of the battle?

913
01:16:42,240 --> 01:16:45,310
No. Because you're sitting on my bed.

914
01:16:45,400 --> 01:16:47,830
I couldn't sleep...

915
01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:50,270
because of you

916
01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:53,150
Because of me?

917
01:16:53,240 --> 01:16:55,190
Yes.

918
01:16:55,280 --> 01:16:57,230
You saved my mother's life.

919
01:16:57,320 --> 01:17:01,020
So, I was lying in my bed
thinking how I could pay you back.

920
01:17:02,160 --> 01:17:04,310
I can only pay you back with silver or...

921
01:17:04,400 --> 01:17:08,670
- Gold?
- No, with my virtue.

922
01:17:08,760 --> 01:17:13,390
But I know that you are not the kind of man
who will accept money.

923
01:17:13,480 --> 01:17:17,020
Someday I will meet a man who will love me,
but that's tomorrow.

924
01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:19,070
For you, there's no tomorrow.

925
01:17:20,200 --> 01:17:22,350
So I must pay you back now.

926
01:17:35,400 --> 01:17:41,110
Look... Catherine, you're a nice lass,
but er... I think you've made the wrong choice.

927
01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:42,390
The wrong choice?

928
01:17:42,480 --> 01:17:44,430
Well...

929
01:17:44,520 --> 01:17:48,870
you said a woman could pay back a man
by giving him gold or giving him a good time.

930
01:17:48,960 --> 01:17:52,310
You made the wrong choice. I'll have the gold.

931
01:17:52,400 --> 01:17:54,670
You prefer to have the gold than my virtue?

932
01:17:54,760 --> 01:17:56,870
Well, if you don't mind.

933
01:17:58,200 --> 01:18:00,150
If I don't mind?

934
01:18:02,200 --> 01:18:04,150
You monster.

935
01:18:07,880 --> 01:18:09,830
You English monster.

936
01:18:16,920 --> 01:18:18,870
That were close, Sharpe, eh?

937
01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:21,110
If she came back, I doubt you'd stand.

938
01:18:46,040 --> 01:18:47,990
SHARPE: They want to parley.

939
01:18:48,080 --> 01:18:50,030
What do we do, sir?

940
01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:54,670
Show a rag.

941
01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:09,950
So, you've finally come out in your true colors.

942
01:19:16,680 --> 01:19:19,630
Aristide, why are you wearing
Bonaparte's uniform?

943
01:19:19,720 --> 01:19:24,990
I've won it in secret for 15 years,
hidden my heart even from my own family.

944
01:19:25,080 --> 01:19:27,380
All these years, Aristide...

945
01:19:29,440 --> 01:19:31,390
...you lied to us.

946
01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:36,670
All these years... lost.

947
01:19:36,760 --> 01:19:40,460
But now it's over. Now we're on the same side.

948
01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:41,830
No we’re not.

949
01:19:43,800 --> 01:19:45,830
Let me take my sick mother and sister.

950
01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:47,790
Lay down your arms

951
01:19:47,880 --> 01:19:51,710
- and General Calvet will give you your lives.
- All of them?

952
01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:53,750
All of them.

953
01:19:55,080 --> 01:19:57,640
Except for Major Sharpe.

954
01:19:58,960 --> 01:20:00,910
Major Ducos has decided he must stay.

955
01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:02,030
Why?

956
01:20:04,520 --> 01:20:10,390
Will you let your men save themselves?
Will you let them speak?

957
01:20:13,000 --> 01:20:16,070
Well? Speak your minds.

958
01:20:25,040 --> 01:20:26,990
One question.

959
01:20:27,080 --> 01:20:29,030
Did you kill Reilly?

960
01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:33,710
One night, I had to leave the camp
to make contact.

961
01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:35,950
He challenged me on my way back.

962
01:20:38,120 --> 01:20:40,350
I had no choice.

963
01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:44,950
So what do you say, Robinson?

964
01:20:45,040 --> 01:20:47,110
Fight them to the finish, sir.

965
01:20:50,720 --> 01:20:52,390
You'd better bugger off now.

966
01:20:55,520 --> 01:21:00,190
And my mother, my sister,
will they come with me?

967
01:21:02,640 --> 01:21:04,590
You may take your mother...

968
01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:06,630
and your sister.

969
01:21:06,720 --> 01:21:08,150
No, we stay

970
01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:10,030
Nous ne bougerons pas d'ici, Aristide.

971
01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:18,950
Aristide, you have been away from home
for too long.

972
01:21:20,280 --> 01:21:22,230
We don't know you any more.

973
01:21:22,320 --> 01:21:24,270
You're a stranger...

974
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:27,430
...and I have nothing more to say to you.

975
01:21:34,360 --> 01:21:36,310
I don't believe you.

976
01:21:38,360 --> 01:21:41,110
I don't think that you know what love is, Aristide,

977
01:21:41,200 --> 01:21:43,430
otherwise you wouldn't...

978
01:21:43,520 --> 01:21:46,270
you wouldn't have kept us alone for so long.

979
01:21:46,360 --> 01:21:49,190
You wouldn't have lied to us for so many years.

980
01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:52,670
Why did you do it?

981
01:21:52,760 --> 01:21:56,150
For whom? For Bonaparte?

982
01:21:57,280 --> 01:21:59,230
It's over, Aristide.

983
01:22:11,120 --> 01:22:13,070
Au revoir, Maquerre.

984
01:22:14,200 --> 01:22:16,150
Au revoir, Major Sharpe.

985
01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:19,830
If you were in my position,
you would have done the same.

986
01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:23,830
I might,

987
01:22:23,920 --> 01:22:25,950
but I wouldn't expect a happy ending.

988
01:22:28,800 --> 01:22:30,750
You have to be a man, Maquerre.

989
01:22:30,840 --> 01:22:32,790
Me?

990
01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:35,150
I changed my class. Rose in the ranks.

991
01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:41,030
I can walk into the officers' mess,
but I don't expect them to be happy about it.

992
01:22:41,120 --> 01:22:43,070
I don't expect a round of applause.

993
01:22:43,160 --> 01:22:45,620
The same goes for my time with the lads.

994
01:22:45,720 --> 01:22:49,310
I can sit and drink tea.
But I'm not one of them any more.

995
01:22:49,400 --> 01:22:52,350
You make your bed, Maquerre,
and then you lie in it.

996
01:22:52,440 --> 01:22:54,390
Without complaining.

997
01:22:55,920 --> 01:22:58,430
The trouble with you is, you wanted it every way.

998
01:22:58,520 --> 01:23:03,430
You wanted to be a spy for years.
Then you want to come back home.

999
01:23:03,520 --> 01:23:07,220
You want everybody to gather round
and say what a big hero you've been.

1000
01:23:08,560 --> 01:23:10,510
The world's not like that, Maquerre.

1001
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:13,630
You made your bed with Bonaparte.

1002
01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:15,670
Well, maybe he'll give you a medal.

1003
01:23:15,760 --> 01:23:17,710
Maybe not.

1004
01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:19,750
Me?

1005
01:23:20,880 --> 01:23:26,230
The next time you're in my sights
and outside a flag of parley, I'll shoot you.

1006
01:23:58,760 --> 01:23:59,740
No

1007
01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:25,430
Bugger!

1008
01:24:34,360 --> 01:24:35,500
(Gunshot)

1009
01:24:44,880 --> 01:24:47,260
You're a good shot, Robinson, lad.

1010
01:24:47,360 --> 01:24:50,110
The second best in t'Brigade, I should say.

1011
01:25:25,360 --> 01:25:27,870
(Grumbling)

1012
01:25:52,640 --> 01:25:55,150
Brigade, en avant! Marche!

1013
01:25:55,240 --> 01:25:57,190
(Drums)

1014
01:26:07,840 --> 01:26:11,710
- Vive l'Empereur!
- Vive l'Empereur!

1015
01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:13,750
We'll fire five rounds.

1016
01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:15,790
No more, no less.

1017
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:18,870
You'll shoot officers and NCOs.

1018
01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:24,270
Then, when you count your ammunition,
every man will have 13 rounds left.

1019
01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:26,510
Fire in your own time.

1020
01:26:26,600 --> 01:26:28,110
Fire!

1021
01:26:41,560 --> 01:26:47,590
Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!

1022
01:27:11,520 --> 01:27:14,470
- Long live the Emperor!
- Long live the Emperor!

1023
01:27:15,240 --> 01:27:16,590
Argh!

1024
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:38,150
To death see.

1025
01:27:56,640 --> 01:27:58,470
Fire!

1026
01:28:07,120 --> 01:28:08,390
Fire!

1027
01:28:08,480 --> 01:28:10,430
(Cannonball whistles through air)

1028
01:28:15,320 --> 01:28:17,270
Quickly! Pull it!

1029
01:28:22,120 --> 01:28:23,750
Come on!

1030
01:28:24,880 --> 01:28:27,990
Well done, my children. Long live the Emperor!

1031
01:28:28,080 --> 01:28:29,110
Long live the Emperor!

1032
01:28:30,720 --> 01:28:31,860
Fire!

1033
01:28:35,640 --> 01:28:38,550
Come up! Long live the Emperor!

1034
01:28:39,680 --> 01:28:41,310
No

1035
01:28:43,040 --> 01:28:44,990
(Soldier coughs)

1036
01:28:48,760 --> 01:28:51,790
Form ranks. Form ranks at the gates.

1037
01:28:57,480 --> 01:28:59,430
(Confused moaning)

1038
01:29:01,600 --> 01:29:04,950
FREDERICKSON: Second rank, form here.
Form rank!

1039
01:29:05,040 --> 01:29:06,990
HARPER: Stand by me.

1040
01:29:12,120 --> 01:29:13,180
Fire!

1041
01:29:14,680 --> 01:29:16,430
Make ready

1042
01:29:16,520 --> 01:29:17,950
Fire!

1043
01:29:19,680 --> 01:29:20,710
Third rank,

1044
01:29:20,800 --> 01:29:22,750
Make ready

1045
01:29:22,840 --> 01:29:24,630
Fire!

1046
01:29:26,120 --> 01:29:28,070
Fourth rank, make ready.

1047
01:29:28,160 --> 01:29:30,110
Fire!

1048
01:29:32,680 --> 01:29:34,910
Make ready. Fire!

1049
01:29:36,200 --> 01:29:37,470
Fire!

1050
01:29:39,160 --> 01:29:40,590
Fire!

1051
01:29:41,680 --> 01:29:42,630
Fire!

1052
01:29:44,160 --> 01:29:45,380
Fire!

1053
01:29:46,600 --> 01:29:48,950
Make ready
Wait

1054
01:29:51,480 --> 01:29:53,910
Retraite. Ils sont de trop.

1055
01:29:54,000 --> 01:29:56,430
Serrez les rangs. À l'attaque! À l'attaque.

1056
01:29:57,760 --> 01:30:00,270
FREDERICKSON: Second rank, form!

1057
01:30:00,360 --> 01:30:01,580
(Gunshot)

1058
01:30:02,720 --> 01:30:04,670
FREDERICKSON: Make ready.

1059
01:30:04,760 --> 01:30:06,550
Fire!

1060
01:30:09,800 --> 01:30:11,750
SHARPE: Form with me.

1061
01:30:14,080 --> 01:30:17,110
Tour perdu. Vive l'Empereur!

1062
01:30:17,200 --> 01:30:19,470
- Advance.
- The rifles are empty. Sir.

1063
01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:27,030
Go back! Close the ranks. On the attack!

1064
01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:32,070
Halt.

1065
01:30:52,440 --> 01:30:53,350
Oh yes.

1066
01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:05,190
SOLDIER: Playing war. We lost.

1067
01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:07,230
(Gaston groans)

1068
01:31:07,320 --> 01:31:09,270
(Sighs)

1069
01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:16,030
- (Nervous laughter)
-Thank God.

1070
01:31:21,520 --> 01:31:23,230
(Moaning)

1071
01:31:51,120 --> 01:31:53,070
(Moans)

1072
01:31:53,160 --> 01:31:55,110
(Death rattle)

1073
01:32:14,680 --> 01:32:16,630
(Howls of agony)

1074
01:32:18,360 --> 01:32:20,310
Endlessly

1075
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:29,560
Stretcher. Do you see our stretcher?

1076
01:32:52,640 --> 01:32:54,590
General Calvet.

1077
01:33:48,160 --> 01:33:50,110
(Whispers) Calvet's going.

1078
01:33:50,200 --> 01:33:52,150
What?

1079
01:33:59,640 --> 01:34:01,590
SHARPE: Where's he going?

1080
01:34:01,680 --> 01:34:05,220
Wait till you hear this, sir.
It's a courier from Wellington.

1081
01:34:08,280 --> 01:34:10,230
What news?

1082
01:34:10,320 --> 01:34:13,270
He's forced a passage through, 50 miles east.

1083
01:34:15,320 --> 01:34:17,270
East?

1084
01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:20,950
Bait.

1085
01:34:21,040 --> 01:34:22,990
That's all we were.

1086
01:34:23,080 --> 01:34:25,030
Just bloody bait.

1087
01:34:27,080 --> 01:34:29,030
And he'd have left us here to die.

1088
01:34:29,120 --> 01:34:31,070
Better get back,

1089
01:34:31,160 --> 01:34:33,110
tell our side of the story.

1090
01:34:35,200 --> 01:34:37,150
Come on, sir. Let's go home.

1091
01:34:40,720 --> 01:34:43,790
We're going home. We're going home, lads.

1092
01:34:43,880 --> 01:34:45,830
(Soldiers cheer)

1093
01:34:45,920 --> 01:34:47,870
SOLDIER: Come on.

1094
01:34:47,960 --> 01:34:49,910
Sir.

1095
01:34:50,000 --> 01:34:51,950
I've found a short cut home, sir.

1096
01:34:52,040 --> 01:34:54,310
What are you bloody waiting for, Captain?

1097
01:34:54,400 --> 01:34:56,350
I want to see my wife.

1098
01:34:58,400 --> 01:35:00,350
I want to see my wife before...

1099
01:35:00,440 --> 01:35:02,390
Major Sharpe.

1100
01:35:15,920 --> 01:35:17,870
Merci. Thank you.

1101
01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:21,550
Goodbye, ma'am.

1102
01:35:23,800 --> 01:35:27,470
And so, having made every provision
for the comfort of the wounded,

1103
01:35:27,560 --> 01:35:29,790
I made my way back as quickly as possible.

1104
01:35:29,880 --> 01:35:34,430
- How did Colonel Maquerre conduct himself?
- I cannot speak too highly of his conduct, sir.

1105
01:35:34,520 --> 01:35:39,540
Despite my pleading with him to return with me,
he insisted on staying behind to raise rebellion.

1106
01:35:39,640 --> 01:35:41,590
And Major Sharpe?

1107
01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:46,030
I'll afraid Major Sharpe was away at the time.
Plundering a French convoy.

1108
01:35:46,120 --> 01:35:49,470
However, I have been reliably informed
by the Mayor of Arcon

1109
01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:51,630
that he was ambushed and overpowered.

1110
01:35:51,720 --> 01:35:55,870
I can only assume that he's either been killed
or surrendered to the French.

1111
01:35:55,960 --> 01:35:58,110
(Marching soldiers)

1112
01:35:58,200 --> 01:36:00,630
Well, er... I suppose we could ask him.

1113
01:36:00,720 --> 01:36:02,670
How do you mean, sir?

1114
01:36:12,040 --> 01:36:13,390
My lord.

1115
01:36:20,440 --> 01:36:22,390
Sir,

1116
01:36:22,480 --> 01:36:25,040
under the provisions of the Army Act,

1117
01:36:25,120 --> 01:36:28,470
I wish to charge Colonel Bampfylde
with cowardice

1118
01:36:28,560 --> 01:36:31,790
in the face of the enemy.
Abandoning his position.

1119
01:36:31,880 --> 01:36:34,750
Abandoning the wounded.

1120
01:36:34,840 --> 01:36:38,950
Conspiring with the Compte de Maquerre -
a spy in the service of Bonaparte -

1121
01:36:39,040 --> 01:36:42,630
to desert his position
and throw the blame on Major Sharpe.

1122
01:36:42,720 --> 01:36:47,350
I further wish to report, sir,
that Major Sharpe tended the wounded,

1123
01:36:47,440 --> 01:36:51,390
successfully repulsed an attack
by General Calvet's brigade

1124
01:36:51,480 --> 01:36:54,470
and brought us all safely back home here, sir.

1125
01:36:54,560 --> 01:36:56,830
Is that all, Captain Palmer?

1126
01:36:56,920 --> 01:36:59,070
It's almost all, sir.

1127
01:37:07,520 --> 01:37:09,670
Field Marshal Wellington,

1128
01:37:09,760 --> 01:37:11,910
Captain Palmer assaulted me.

1129
01:37:12,000 --> 01:37:13,950
He struck a superior officer.

1130
01:37:14,040 --> 01:37:17,270
You're no longer a superior officer, Bampfylde.
Get out!

1131
01:37:17,360 --> 01:37:19,310
Sir.

1132
01:37:25,360 --> 01:37:28,900
Colonel Bampfylde, you're under close arrest
pending court martial.

1133
01:37:29,000 --> 01:37:30,950
You'll surrender your sword.

1134
01:37:33,400 --> 01:37:34,950
- My lord.
- Ross.

1135
01:37:35,040 --> 01:37:36,590
Sharpe.

1136
01:37:36,680 --> 01:37:38,630
You're looking well, sir.

1137
01:37:38,720 --> 01:37:40,670
Thank you, Sharpe.

1138
01:37:40,760 --> 01:37:44,870
- Kenefick's quinine did the trick, then?
- Oh, don't be a damned fool.

1139
01:37:44,960 --> 01:37:47,110
The brandy your wife brought me every day

1140
01:37:47,200 --> 01:37:48,830
did the trick.

1141
01:37:50,160 --> 01:37:52,110
The brandy my wife?

1142
01:37:53,640 --> 01:37:55,590
You mean, she's still...

1143
01:37:55,680 --> 01:37:57,870
She's well, Sharpe. She's waiting for you.

1144
01:37:57,960 --> 01:38:00,710
- You'll find her with the wounded.
- Sir.

1145
01:38:13,200 --> 01:38:14,790
Jane.

1146
01:38:39,120 --> 01:38:41,070
Oh, God.

1147
01:38:43,120 --> 01:38:45,070
I thought I'd lost you.

1148
01:38:47,120 --> 01:38:49,070
I thought I'd lost you.

1149
01:39:02,120 --> 01:39:04,910
When you've stopped wasting
my assistant's time...

1150
01:39:05,000 --> 01:39:07,380
Jane. I'd be obliged for your assistance.

1151
01:39:07,480 --> 01:39:11,950
I must take a man's foot off, and I want
somebody to hold his hand while I'm doing it.

1152
01:39:16,560 --> 01:39:18,510
He went to Wellington.

1153
01:39:18,600 --> 01:39:22,350
Wellington somehow wormed a little quinine
from the Spaniards.

1154
01:39:23,880 --> 01:39:25,830
Wellington saved my life.

1155
01:39:27,880 --> 01:39:29,830
He must think a lot of you, Richard.

1156
01:39:31,880 --> 01:39:33,830
So do I.

1157
01:39:41,880 --> 01:39:44,550
KENEFICK: Jane, the small saw, if you please.

1158
01:40:02,600 --> 01:40:06,190


1159
01:40:06,280 --> 01:40:09,870


1160
01:40:09,960 --> 01:40:13,550


1161
01:40:13,640 --> 01:40:17,070


1162
01:40:18,200 --> 01:40:22,190


1163
01:40:22,280 --> 01:40:26,270


1164
01:40:26,360 --> 01:40:30,350


1165
01:40:30,440 --> 01:40:34,430
