Sharpe's Battle

(TV movie)

Plots(1)

British officer Richard Sharpe has his work cut out for him. Wellington orders him to take charge of the Royal Irish Guard, a gift from the Spanish King Ferdinand and make them into soldiers for their first-ever battle. Sharpe must also contend with the commander of the Guard, Lord Kiely (Jason Durr) and his devoted, but neglected wife, Lucy (Allie Byrne).
The French continue to fight a fierce rear-guard action while being driven out of Spain. Sharpe must recover stolen supply wagons and lead his green troops into battle against a French general whose "chief weapon is horror." (official distributor synopsis)
