Movie Rating
TV movie from 1994, based on the Bernard Cornwell novel of the same name.

This is the one that has Elizabeth Hurley in it (proving she can't act), and that has the second - and last - appearance of Sergeant Obadiah Hakeswill, alongside the first appearance of the French spymaster Pierre Ducos.

it's also no as polished as the previous entry in the series, with the shocking moment towards the end failing to really hit home, and with the entire thing feeling, maybe, half an hour longer than it needed to be.

An immersive historical fiction novel set in India. Loot by Tania James begins in Mysore in the 1790s, and a young woodcarver called Abbas is summoned to the palace of Tipu Sultan to help a French clockmaker, Lucien du Leze build a clockwork tiger.

And so starts a series of events that will see the end of Tipu Sultans reign, Abbas’ journey to France and his subsequent quest to find and recover the tiger for himself. It’s a tale full of adventure, danger and romance. I really enjoyed it!

There's one of the later Sharpe books, where Cornwell has Harper (basically) say something along the lines of:

"Me? I went through the whole war with hardly a scratch. Major Sharpe, though, he's a different matter: he's always getting himself wounded"

This is the tale with the most sever of those wounds, when Sharpe is severely wounded by the French Colonel Leroux (who is on the hunt for Wellingtons spymaster) and is himself near death for a bit.

It's Sharpe though.

The one time that Sean Bean doesn't die!
