Have not yet seen any of this series. It looks like it is well done (isn't anything PBS or BBC produces?). Thanks for the heads up. Hope our local station has it scheduled.
Pat – I hope so, too. The only thing slightly off about the past Sharpe shows is that they're accompanied by electric guitar music, which always makes my son roll his eyes. Otherwise, you'll love it. Kristine
