I love all the "Sean Bean James Bond" comments. And he was in a Bond movie; Goldenye.

2023-07-25 14:33:17 +0000 UTCThe guy who played Napoleon is Ron Cook, a character actor who has made a career out of playing weasely shitbags on British TV and film. So, definately a diss casting decision.

2023-07-16 18:20:50 +0000 UTCFun fact: during that time period, it actually would be safer to deliver a baby with an ex sheep farmer than with a society doctor. Even though they didn't have germ theory, people knew dirty hands weren't ideal for medical care. A doctor would be more likely to assume their hands were clean because they weren't caked in dirt, while anyone whose hands usually were caked in dirt would wash them if they could.

2023-07-16 15:02:30 +0000 UTCMuch like the fifth Bond movie, Sharpe #5 should have also been called: "Sharpe: You Only Live Twice"
