Winston's post here TMP link made me think it might be good to prepare a drinking game for the day the Sharpe series is on Netflix. What do you think would be appropriate? O'er the Hills and Faraway is played – drink Sharpe stresses his unit are chosen men – drink Somebody talks about how blessed the Irish are – drink What else? |

Sharpe gets wounded – drink. Sharpe gets insulted by an aristocrat – drink. French stand out in the open during a skirmish to be shot – drink. Hagman sings or says something philosophical – drink. I knew there was a reason to watch these programmes again! |

Looking at that list I for one am pissed as a newt after the first fifteen minutes of almost any episode. |

I found the books bad enough, I'd need to be drunk to even start to watch the programmes. |

Liz Hurley stripped to the waist. OK only one drink. Sadly only happened once. One of the great moments in TV. But it deserves one very large drink really….. |

Every time Sharpe is a blond Yorkshireman instead of dark haired Londoner he should be (also called the suicide game) |

This is why I need to get the series FREE on streaming something or other. I have a case of beer and some free time. |

Every time the same extra gets shot or hit by artillery fire during an advance… Drink Those sixteen extras in Waterloo really earned their fifty quid a day. |

For me this is good in two ways: 1.I hate Sharpe(watched it but hated the show) 2.I don't drink never have and never will. |
