FRICK I LOVE THIS SERIES! I think I maybe preferred The Diviners a little bit more but this one was still EXCELLENT! I'm so tempted to just launch straight into until the devil breaks you now but I'm going to give it a rest for a while but I still need more of my beloved little divining gang who I love so much. I even love Evie now! Who knew all it would take was enemies to lovers and fake dating tropes, I really am that basic! I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS

"When I’m thinking about what draws me to some of these films, it’s really my love of watching great characters experiencing some kind of break with reality. And this movie illustrates that. First of all, I love the idea of someone trying to sell their first-born child to the devil for an acting part. Insane! And then the character of Rosemary, embodied beautifully by Mia Farrow, is so compelling. You see how a woman can lose herself in the process of protecting her child. It feels accurate to the experience of being pregnant."

The final part in the original run of TV movies based on the Bernard Cornwell books of the same name (although there was another such book to go at the time - 'Sharpe's Devil'), in which the now-retired Sharpe - alongside Harper, Hagman and Harris - find themselves partaking in the final decisive battle of the Napoleonic Wars: that of Waterloo.

As befits such an epic battle, this is an epic retelling of the events of the same (although, as always, liberties are taken and the lack of budget sometimes shows!)
