Just finished watching Sharpe's Regiment.
Another good film. And Simmerson's back. I would love to see Sharpe gut that guy. For the life of my I can't remember, so someone please help......does Sharpe or Harper or anyone for that matter kill Simmerson? I liked Sharpe & Harper "joining the army" to find the missing regiment. I remember enjoying that in the book and thought the film did it justice. -------------------- Shiny!

I think it's one of the better adaptations and sticks fairly close to the book.
I don't think Simmerson ever gets finished off - certainly not in the TV shows, as he's in the latest one - Sharpe's Peril (I think). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Bernard learned his lesson about killing off bad guys too soon when he got rid of Hakeswill.

So does RELIGION, but science is better because it comes up with more understandable excuses when it's wrong.

He's just such a slimy, lying, coward of a weasel that you just hope Sharpe does to him what he did to Braithwaite. -------------------- Shiny!

LMAO just wait until you get to Peril. I won't ruin it for you, but you'll like what happens to him. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
