Well so far that is, as i have read the worst episode is yet to come. It is contrived, poorly executed, characters behaving completely out of established character. The only shining light is captain fredrickson who sharpe uncharacteristically mistreats. Such a disappointment. Worth viewing if only to be done with this series. The dilemma is unbelievible. In inquiry process horrid, has no one ever heard of timelines? Sharpe's motive is based on a letter he cannot have received as it was intercepted and used as evidence the only suspense is how long can this go on. Many characters act contrary to their arc jane turns into an immature, weak-willed air head. Sorry, no, she is not become an air head. She has become a selfish tart. And lazy deus ex machina plot that wanders into trouble and out doesn't help this piece d easliy resisted merde. Coincidence should ask for a raise or at least overtime. Fredrickson even calvet and gaston outshown the rest of the usually reliable ensemble. The combat choreography was amaterish even ludicrous. March barely a platoon against a fortified position on the high ground massed like it was a regiment? Why sharpe did not simply shoot ducos when then men behind were later shown to be in accurate rifle shot? Even sharpe turns into a dislikable unable-to-keep-it-in-his-pants breaker-of-the-bro-code churl. Difficult to believe it was the same director hardly made it thru. Not sure it was worth it. Shame. Otherwise a purdy good series. Guess this is what comes of binge watching. It makes such poorly motivated character departures more visible. The deeper i get into this episode the higher my gorge rises. Who wrote this shite? The climax, if you can call it that, is equally contrived. While corwell's plots are on the whole simple and formulaic, they are at least entertaining. This is a fail, this is beneath even him.
