Sharpe's Battle / Sharpe's Sword (DVD)

Sharpe DVD boxset

Advantages: One of it's kind, the best of it's kind
Disadvantages: Special effects not brilliant

of historical information while watching. The actors themselves include the renowned Sean Bean and one of the UK's best folk singers, John Tams, who even writes the theme song! Episode List: Sharpe's Justice Sharpe's Waterloo Sharpe's Revenge Sharpe's Mission Sharpe's Revenge Sharpe's Regiment Sharpe's Siege Sharpe's Battle Sharpe's Sword Sharpe's Honour Sharpe's Gold Sharpe's Rifles Sharpe's Eagle Sharpe's Company Sharpe's Enemy In regard to the special effects, the movies themselves were filmed in the early 90s, however the extras and props are all excellent, I believe all were sets were on location and in Sharpe's Waterloo there is a 'bloody big battle', possibly tipped with Sharpe's finest moment where he gets to see Napoleon. Overall, brilliant! I cannot wait to watch the final DVD. If you want a sample, why not ...

Review of Sharpe (Special Edition) (Box Set) (DVD)

Life at the Sharpe end

Advantages: Joyous read for a footy biog
Disadvantages: More juice please

Alex Ferguson may have been the bricks and mortar of the Manchester United success story, and Mark Robbins the trigger; but it was all smiling Lee Sharpe who was the La chispa` (the spark of magic) that ignited the new dynasty with passion, intensity and sex appeal .Football was going that way, anyway, in the early nineties with the inception of the Premiership,and Sharpey was determined to be leading that revolution witha smile, United now the proud owners of title number nine in the last 14 seasons for Sir Alex. Lee was one of the last guys to play the game with a smile on his face (much to Ferguson?s ire) and the wonderful photo on the books dust cover of Sharpey using the flag stick as a microphone stand reminds us of a day long past in the top levels of professional sport. He may have liked the ladies more than the training but ...

Review of My Idea Of Fun - Lee Sharpe

Sharp's Practices

Advantages: Stylish furniture competently fitted into your bedroom
Disadvantages: Furniture is not of the highest quality.

Picture it if you will ? it?s the room that was my daughter?s bedroom. She left home many years ago, but somehow there?s still a tennis racquet on top of the wardrobe, a stack of school exercise books in the bookcase and strange pieces of clothing (what can you do with a ra-ra skirt these days?) that are not actually needed where she?s living at the moment but are far too good to throw away, or so she tells me. It?s not too bad when you just close the door on the room, but when an unexpected guest turns up it?s a source of deep embarrassment. Well, you can hardly deny that you?ve got a spare room, can you? Then came the fateful day. I went into the local town and a Sharp?s Bedrooms showroom had opened. I?d like to say that it was the aesthetics of the window display that drew me inside, but it wasn?t. It was the banner which ...
