“Sharpe is a British television series (1993-97) of stories set during the Napoleonic wars starring Sean Bean as Richard Sharpe, a fictional British soldier in the Napoleonic Wars. Sharpe is the hero of a number of novels by Bernard Cornwell; most, though not all, of the episodes are based on the books. Produced by Celtic Films and Picture Palace Films for the ITV network, the series was shot mainly in Crimea, a few episodes in Turkey, although some filming was also done in England, Portugal and Spain.”
I bought the set...came complete with a bayonet letter opener that I cut my hand on the first time I handled it. I didn’t expect it to be as sharp as a bayonet.
