Loup sounds like he should be standing on the ramparts yelling, "... Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!"
"Now this is your last chance! I've been more than reasonable-"
No, he should have said ‘I fart in your direction, major Sharp’😂😂😂
Fetchez le Loup!
"Your mother is a hamster and you father smells of elderberries"
...and your mother smells of elderberries! LOL
"You're a dead man Sharpe!" - Ironically, it was one of the few roles that Sean Bean's character _doesn't_ die.
How many said and thought that in the shows?
And he has been making up for that in everything else :D
@@forlornhope7121 All of them. Literally ALL of them. That's sticking to a worn-out meme.
Tip: "if you ever fight Sean Bean in a film, DON'T EVER MENTION death..."
He was in a film about a plane and he didn't die in that
"Loup is French for 'Wolf'"
"Well, we all know what to do with wolves...YOU WILL TRAIN HIM YOURSELF, FEED HIM YOURSELF, AND IF HE DIES YOU WILL BURY HIM YOURSELF!"
Giantdad Lives very good.
@Andie Williams They did make movies from both the Sharpe's and Hornblower series . They were made for BBC Television. This was a clip from one.
@Andie Williams www.amazon.com/Sharpes-Complete-Collection-Sean-Bean/dp/B000E1NWPA It looks like buying the indivdiula films would be cheaper, unless you like the dagger and fancy box.

Man, Loup was a really good character. He is one of the few villains in this show that actually have a good motive for being evil. And he is also the only officer in this show (besides Sharpe) who actually cares for his men's lives. Plus his acting was great.
Calvet cares for his men
Jormangandur83 were you not listening? The Spanish Guerrillas were slaughtering his men so he sacked the town. It’s not like the Spaniards were following the rules of war then
Jormangandur83 Getting real hostile bro, I read the book too and honestly can’t blame Loup, ain’t no other way to put down a local Guerrilla cell without some hearts and minds bullshit, but again that would be pretty hard to pull off in 1808, Loup was putting down the rebellion so I ain’t gonna put any blame on him, but I’m just saying it didn’t happen without reason
@Jormangandur83 Says the country threatened to nuke an entire country because of where terrorists were from.
@@RinoGato the French didnt follow the rules of war!!!! They looted and stole from towns and farms, Napoleon called it "Living off the land". They murdered surrendered troops and slaughtered civilians. Everyone in the Peninsular war committed horrifying acts of barbarity, that's how war goes. In my original comment i just said that Loup has reasons for slaughtering people, other than just "were at war". He is kinda like the US military in Vietnam, sadly, he doesn't know where the enemy is or who is the enemy so he just kills everyone.
Loup isn't trashy evil, I love that.
He's the classy villain, the kind who'd capture the hero, give them dinner, then casually release them and their friends with a simple "You'll see it my way, some day."
"I want a firing squad."
Every single man runs into place to volunteer.
Good point.
Its a rare moment that even Sharpe is surprised - as no one wants to do it as its usually shooting a fellow soldier, a friend. But the rifles had seen what Loup's men had done and seen the horror. ALL were part of the firing squad.
However what Sharpe did here was technically a breach of rules of war - he shot unarmed POWs.
No matter the crime, it is not up to the opposing officer to be Judge/jury. And he did it in front of the enemy - this, if it became more well known, could mean French doing the same to British POWs. Wellington would have a talk to Sharpe about it and he should not act out of passion
But one can make the argument that Loup had a point and did his orders effectively. As a result of the horror he did, no partisans attacked loup's patrols.
For those villagers, the day General Loupe came to their village was the worst day of their lives. For General Loupe it was Tuesday.
Nice!
When Major Sharpe and the South Essex came to their village it was the greatest day of their lives. For Major Sharpe it was Wednesday.
When Major Sharpe and the South Essex came to their village it was the greatest day of their lives. For Major Sharpe it was Wednesday.
@@smnbee75 For those two prisoners it was Thursday. They never could get the hang of Thursdays.
Cute street fighter reference
It was interesting to hear Loup's explanation of his men's actions: "The chief weapon of the guerilla is horror." Few commanders would be that honest.
Read Memoirs of general Manès, who explains how he submitted Calabria by being more terrible than the guerillas. And the story of Fra Diavolo, the guerillero he fought.
So one group of savage murderers against another group of savage murderers, sad.
@@duaneelliott5194 thats war, thats the life of a soldier...being able to do all that while still being a good man, though...thats Soldiering...
Horror. Horror!
"Sir......were you supposed to do that?"
Classic 19th century junior British officer.
Nothing has changed...
The answer is, it doesn't matter.
He’s trying to learn and I am quite curious to the answer
Shit happens in war.
TheCormTube = there are no rules inn war
You can tell Loup genuinely cared for his men. Having traits like that makes a fantastic villain. It makes him more than the standard cartoonish bad guy
Executing prisoners of war in front of their Commander
Now thats soldiering!
Technically speaking that's being a war criminal, although I'm not sure these acts had the status of war crimes before the Geneva Convention.
@@eliasfrp also I think rapping , pillaging and slaughtering a entire village including children for just being Spanish is a bit worse then a execution
@@philipphelan8712
Definitely. Nonetheless, killing POWs is a war crime now. Back then (if I'm not mistaken) it was not codified.
I don't think the legal term POW existed back then but as far as I know it was already established in medieval times that treating prisoners, at least important ones, like one of your own (except bearing arms and movement) was considered honorable. So if Sharp has the legal authority to punish his own men for the same offense in the same way, he should have the same authority concerning his prisoners.
Or you could just shorten the whole debate and argue that martial law says: "Fu** you, General Loup!"
@@eliasfrp Not codified, they had some general conventions of respect as per rank, and general honour etc, but Sharpe was exacuting two men caught raping, looting and as such had no such code to protect them.
You know, as comically evil as General Loup is, it was impressive that he cared enough about his men that he was willing to trade vital military supplies just to get two of them back.
Refusing a one-eyed French officer's bendy cigar when offered?
That's soldiering.
Probably against regulations to smoke a boing on duty.
Even though Loup was evil, I cant help but respect his loyalty to just two of his men. Many in his position would not care, our Generals have no issue leaving some poor johnny to die just to avoid a headline
Well not all Generals are bad. Generals who cares for the lives of his men, is one whose gained the respect of his men for quite a long time.
I never watched the show but I hope he lives to see the war end. Doubt it though
Did you order that code red?
You’re god damn right I did
@@koreancowboy42 Oddly enough, marshal Zhukov of the Soviet Red army shared that feeling for his men.
Ye
It was actually kinda cool of Loup to offer Sharpe a cigar
He doesnt take gifts from murderers.
No reason you cant be civil.
I thought the same. At least he had some manners. He looked pretty scary too and only worthy sharps opponent and dude has one eye.
He did so when Sharpe said he was a major, as they were both officers
It was a psychological trick to try to build rapport, nothing else.
0:47 nothing like bonding over a post-battle Cadbury's Finger.
Tut-tut! In these 'enlightened' times, its highly likely that Cadbury's will sue you for that comment! ;-)
“Your a dead man sharpe”
Sean bean... “oh buddy you have no idea”
I just clicked based on the thumbnail to see if there was an episode of Sharpe I missed where he soldiered so hard that he was able to scream out muskets at his enemies
Refusing a gift from a murderer. That's soldiering.
why did yuo comment on like every sharpe video
@@cumtown3984 because he is one of sharpes chosen men!
@Max Mountford was thinking the same. And always a similar comment. Lol
all of them are murderers wtf lol
All good soldiers are murderers when it is required of them. By making those murderers face a firing squad would have done more to bolster British support amongst the population than any terror tactics coud ever achieve. That is why Wellington insisted his men purchase their supplied from the locals rather than just plunder them like the French.
Hey wait a minute... Grey... Wolf... Blind in One Eye...
Reminds Me of a certain Clone Commander...
Artist was probably a Brit haha
.....uh wait....uh that doesn’t compute....uh....wait....uh....YOU’RE UNDER ARREST!!!!
So I'm not the only one then. XD
The main difference is here the "Commander Wolf" is a bad boy.
In Star Wars he was a proper, if traumatized, Commander of the Wolffe Battalion - also one of my favourite Commanders.
Cpt. Rex, Cmdr Wolffe, Cmdr Cody and Cpt Boss (Delta 38) are my favourites.
So, you like Sharpe and Star Wars. You, sir, are a man of culture and I salute you.
Those of you who are wondering what the one Frenchman said at 3:26 well here it is "No sir! I beg of you!".
i imagine his victims said something similar...
@@viridisxiv766 definitely.
Thanks
I Think He Said"The Promise!,That The Promise!!"
@@muhammadnauvamkhoirunnas4861 Nope, I'm a frenchman and he's correct. " No Sir ! I beg you Sir " with a really thick english accent 'tho.
Loup is a great villain, very rarely see the likes written in modern TV or film.
He is a monster, but he knows he has to be to maintain control, whilst also carrying passionately about his men, which is very rare in a villain. Normally their troops are a means to an end and their deaths are little more than collateral damage. As opposed to someone like Calvet who also cares about his men, but does so more for the love of his country. Very good writing.
Rewatching this, honestly if I was Sharpe, when Loup says "may I remind you of the rules of war", my response would have been "you violated them first, lads, fire"
"No U", now that's soldiering. I mean 5-year-old's reasoning.
@@ChrisStavros lol nope. Not at all in this context. More like you being the five year old here
>fire
then that means you Violate the 'rules of war' by shooting an unarmed party there to talk to you.
Man I love that zero of you retards will actually participate in armed conflict
@@ChrisStavros Not when dealing with murderers and rapists, it isn't.
Thumbnail: Sharpe single handedly unhinges his jaw like a python and eats a musket whole
Didn't that happen in the series somewhere ... ?
I saw this and thought it was a great visual metaphor for Sharpe's command and unleashing of his riflemen. Almost biblical, in a sense, like the line in Revelation about "a sharp sword comes out of his mouth to strike down the nations".
That's Moray Eeling
Sharpe becomes a legend among the troops when he fellates an entire musket
Sharpe's response to Loup saying that he is a dead man should have been "I have heard that many times from many dead men" before turning away.
He may be a bastard, but Loup and his men sure know how to dress!
And how to have self respect
PETA would love the General.
They got the cool look right down to a tee with his dudes.
It’s not really our place to decide who’s evil or not in war. War’s never clean!
@ 'Orror, not horror. :)
"Well, we all know what to do with wolves."
RIP Lady.
Using your enemy's fear of you makes you a fearful adversary, using horror towards innocent lives makes you an evil man.
Well it worked on japan and very few people call them [usa] evil for that
@@MrConna6 you are soooooooooo out of touch then
@@Joes8186 i mean i studied it in history and they never used the same language as they do for the nazis. Idk what your personal opinion is or those of fully fledged historians, im talking about the basic view everyone is shown in school here
@@MrConna6 do ur schools teach about the war of 1812 by any chance?
@@Joes8186 no the standard curriculum is ancient medicine, american west, the troubles and nazi germany (edit; uk based. Tthe american west part is very specifically about the expansion to the west and the relationship with the indians, almost no mention of wars between the french english and american colonies)
Loupe kept his promise to his men: he didn't abandon them.
He was prepared to risk his own life when he started to draw his sword, stopping only when he knew he would be killed by Sharpe's rifles.
If Sharpe had handed them over, Loupe would have taken that as a sign of weakness and attackedSharpe's men at the first chance.
I watched the original series and am thrilled to find bits of it on here. It occurs to me it must have been great fun to make: costumes, location and great scripts! Looks so authentic, it must be soldiering...!
Love how the thumbnail for this video makes it looks like the rifle is coming OUT of Sharpes mouth, and he's holding it with VERY tiny hands :D
Damnit! Now I’m never going to unsee this!!!
There were so many opportunities for a "I don't deal with animals" joke for Sharpe.
'Their lives, for your supplies.' The guy really did everything he coild to save them
Every man will be judged according to his own notion of justice.
a private getting a speaking line in sharpe is the touch of death. poor perkins
Wasn't a chosen man the equivalent of a corporal?
@@wishingwell12345 sort of. It was an unofficial job title. It basically meant you were respected enough that you were allowed little privileges - like not doing latrine duty
He who passes the sentence should -swing the sword- pull the trigger.
Brace yourself...
Best brown paper is coming.
In the military, giving the order is as good as pulling the trigger. An officer's troops are his weapon.
@@PieLovesPi Then I'd say, that was a mighty fine shot wasted on two rotten frogs.
That or look there commander in the eye as it's done.
@@PieLovesPi not quite. An illegal order is not an order and need not be obeyed.
I love this series, this is what got me into reading Bernard Cornwell, but I'd love them to remake this series. With today's productions the BBC could really show the massive scale that these books cover. Sean Bean isn't too old to take up a role either, he could portray Sir Arthur Wellesley which would be sort of fitting as Wellesley is the one who gave Sharpe his commission.
i would prefer a remake happens after all the culture wars are over and they can be faithful to the books without shoehorning in idenity politcs
As I understand, the Last Kingdom shows what a Cornwell story can do when they put some proper budget behind it.
God forbid this is remade. It would be a woke nightmare.
@@lordomacron3719 what on earth are you talking about? That's a completely nonsensical comment.
"Identity politics"? You mean what? Women dressed as...what? Women? French soldiers looking and sounding French?
@@WillCamx Don't be tedious and foolish at the same time.
Ironic that after this Sharpe took the wolf's head as sigil of his house.

Why do all of Sharpe's enemies assume this is any other Sean Bean role?
One does not simply threaten Sharpe.
Sharpe: "We all know what to do with wolves..."
Derfel: "Cut off their tails and nail them to you helmets? That's the tradition, innit?"
Cotton was an absolute boss as Loup.
I was about to say, considering the accent, I'm damn impressed the actor isn't actually French!
@@PercivalC Why do the people in these comments talk in such an affected way? His accent seemed off and so did the accent of the Spanish woman, as well as the accent of the man who was shot.
@@dogestranding5047 Don't ask me. I hardly ever comment on these Sharpe videos, and I too usually find the comments to be too glorifying to the show. And no, I live in Europe, his accent for an English actor playing a Frenchman is quite good.
Sharpe: I want a firing squad *cue the entire rifle detachment forming up without being asked*
Loup: *goes for sword*
95th Rifles: *execute perfect about face whilst flicking the safety catch off*
Loup: *awkward face*
@Field Marshall Rommel Baker Rifles did have a safety catch... Not all of them, but the ones shown do have the catches
@@Trek001 Those saftey catches were a requirement for filming, baker rifles didn't have them originally.
@@Stormcrow180 I've yet to see these mysterious safety catches. Timestamp?
@Herr Eisenfaust I know that is suppossed to be the actual phrasing for the weapons. But I can't help but to hear the equivalent to "half-mast" and "full mast" :p
@Field Marshall Rommel THis is my safety *finger gesture*
"You're a dead man Sharpe!" That's where it all began... Sean Bean would go on to be a dead man from that point on!
Love how ruthless sharpe can be.
“Might I remind you, major, of the rules of war.”
“Funny. I was going to ask you the same thing.”
I mean, at least it seems that Brigadier General Loup cared for his soldiers and tried to look for their safety, despite how much of a 'villain' he may be...
Commiting war crimes in front of enemy general? That's soldiering
firequacker actually executing the men is entirely in line with the laws of war at the time. Soldiers who raped and pillaged were routinely hanged or shot
He was executing them for rape, not for being enemies
@@stoutyyyy my mistake
Shane M without a trial?
Doesn’t seem very British and gentleman like to me.
@@tekha1977 They were literally taken in the act. I believe in innocent until proven guilty, but Sharpe and his men saw what they were doing with their own eyes and they even admitted to it.
I would never turn down a peperami.
Shows you Sharpe's character. That cigar had to be mighty tempting.
Luv the fact sharpe and Harper only give half orders. Never asked for the firing squad. Just said it was needed. Never ask for support when wolf went for his sword. Just the noise
French officer: If you fight me, you'll learn caution.
Major Sharpe: Hold my beer.
You're a dead man Sharpe.
Mr. Bean: Dammit, now I'm going to die in another movie.
A great reincarnation of Peter Falk as Lieutenant Columbo (and other characters he's done). I kid, of course. But seriously, what was that actor thinking?
I would happily look after Miranda.

I love that the thumbnail shows a rifle being fired out of Sharpe's mouth.
"Sgt Harper, bring out the frogs." 😂
I never knew Sharpe can shoot a rifle with his mouth!
"You're a dead man Sharp". Funny. Only series Sean Bean lives through.
The DireLOUP is a sigil of your house my lord
Sharpe is so rude! Loup offers to share a blunt and he refuses!
The producers got it right - this scene at least :)
I have served under some great Officers in my time in the Infantry... however, I would have served with Sharpe in a NY second given the chance . God save Ireland!
Naaa except for the core 4 or 5 the life expectancy for an associate of Sharpe was about a week....
And even the core got wrecked in the end.
He was a killing officer.
I knew Sean Bean played tough guys, but when I saw your thumbnail with a musket coming out of his mouth I gave up!
Nice work, thumbnail chooser!
That thumbnail
Sean Bean consumes a battalion.
I would've taken them prisoners as well... they just admitted that they don't care about the rules of war!
HowTF did they just come and go among the enemy lines like that?
There's loyalty, then there's Sharpe's men.
"We all know what to do with wolves?"
Me: "Pets? Maybe a few belly rubs?"
One of the best villains of the whole show, you really felt like Sharpe had met an equal in combat with Loup
When your cigar has nearly gone out, that's smouldering
General Loupe: If you fight me, you'll learn caution.
Sharpe: What, by taking out your other eye?
That's soldiering.
Seems like a clear application of Rule 303.
A good old standby when in doubt.
"Ah...sir? Were you supposed to do that?"
"Ah well, if it meant satisfying justice of what these men did to this town, to let the survivors know that we're serious in trying to protect them; furthermore to tell a certain animal-behaving human calling himself General Loup that he has found an enemy in me, and perhaps for some pleasure in seeing him put in his place...yes, I think I was supposed to do that."
Am I the only person who looked at the thumbnail and thought "When Sharpe gets angry, guns come out of his mouth!"
Exact. Same. Thought.
Loup reminds me of several WH40K Imperial officer custom-builds. Not a criticism, just an observation.
I love that the thumbnail looks like Sharp has a Rifle Coming out of his mouth.
I thought he was eating a gun in the thumbnail
Having a rifle poking out of your mouth on the TH-cam thmubnail? Now that's Sharping!
Refusing a cigar that is graciously offered to you in courtesy and honor.
Now that's rude.
Sharpe doesn't just make hollow threats.
They need a reboot of this show
They would only ruin it and change sharp to a woman to be "woke"

I'm so tired that I thought the musket was coming out of his mouth. It's 5:30am.
I really have to rewatch Sharpe
i love Sharpe but got to admit it's extremely biased against the french, everything they do is evil and everything the brits and spanish does is good.
There's plenty of evil British officers. One of the books also covers the Royal Navy's bombardment of Copenhagen, which was pretty horrific.
Still, you have to admit the tv series is really biased against the French. It shows them committing atrocities all the time, and while that did happen in real life, the series never seems to show any crimes from the British or Spanish resistance fighters, both of whom committed many as well.
@@TheStapleGunKid It does. Admittedly less, but it does cover British and Spanish war crimes. It's less because they're the protagonists.
@@TheStapleGunKid it was responded in a comment to one of the vids on this channel. The French army looted freely, just as they did in any country they occupied. The Brits made it a point to never loot, steal, or rape, as they positioned themselves as liberators, not occupants. Occasional looting and harassment took place at first, but provosts (Military Police), who hanged the looters in place, took quick care of it. That won the Brits support from Portuguese guerillas, who provided supplies and intel, which helped win the campaign.
Have you never actually watched the show? At least half of the evil/sketchy characters are English officers...
The thumbnail makes it look as though Sharpe is eating his rifle like a sausage. (Rations must be running low.)
BTW, who designed Loup's uniform, Liberace?
I wouldn't mind looking after Miranda myself
"Sir!, were you suppose to that"
Some times Jenkins, the rules are wrong. Sometimes what is right is not in the rules.
Best dressed bad guy in the serie. Damn that uniform is epic.

Such a great show...

Oh(facepalm)how could I forget HRH Dooshbag😂😂 Sharp could not get to him thoe as he was a officer and realative of brittish royals,thoe he did shoot him in the em em butt when he knew noone saw him or could pinpoint were it came from😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
I think Loup did take the hint. But the fact remained he had promised them he would not abandon them.
In this situation he either attacks, dies, and abandons all in his company.
Or he stands down, abandoning 2 members of his company
Never tought of it that way
