I remember watching this while in Iraq and have to say to this day its still an amazing show to watch. Id recommend it to anyone that likes action and adventure and anyone who enjoys a good historically based drama/action movie. The production is very good and the cast is great. Sean Bean is great as Sharpe and plays well off the other characters in the show. My biggest issue was when they recast Brain Cox, though from what i understand it wasnt because of issues in him wanting to do the role but his health. Still well worth watching the whole series.

I remember watching a bummed copy of this in highschool. Loved it and it's what helped me propel myself into the study of Napoleonic history in college. Glad Sean didn't have to die.
