Sharpe also sent a promising comment about this project, saying: “Noda was very open-minded and gracious about trusting me to have a handle on Western audiences, and I trusted him to know what would work best with a Japanese audience. It was a balancing act, but as this play is set in its own world, I think hopefully it has international appeal.”

Now, according to Pritchard, the reborn play is darker than the original, perhaps more in line with English sensibility. There are three characters – a thespian dad played by a woman (Kathryn Hunter wearing a shiny bald-cap), a boyband-obsessed mum played by a man (the hysterically overacting Noda himself) and a teenage daughter played by a middle-aged bloke (Glyn Pritchard, flouncing around with purple bangs). They’re a ceaselessly fratching family, and tonight they can’t decide who gets to go out and who has to stay in and watch the pregnant dog, which is actually a giant stuffed toy. During the early years of the Peninsula Campaign, Sharpe's affections are torn between a Portuguese courtesan, Josefina LaCosta, and the Spanish partisan leader Teresa Moreno ( Sharpe's Eagle, Sharpe's Gold). Teresa bears Sharpe a daughter, Antonia ( Sharpe's Company), in 1811, and marries Sharpe in 1812, but is murdered a year later by Sharpe's longtime enemy, deserter Obadiah Hakeswill ( Sharpe's Enemy). Sharpe leaves his daughter to be raised by Teresa's family, and, as far as is known, never sees her again. Over the same period, Sharpe also has affairs with an English governess, Sarah Fry ( Sharpe's Escape); Caterina Veronica Blazquez, a prostitute who has beguiled Henry Wellesley, Sir Arthur's brother ( Sharpe's Fury); and the French spy Hélène Leroux ( Sharpe's Sword, Sharpe's Honour). Even so, the actor says, “We still want to leave it open to alternative endings and surprises, just as you can have lots of different paths and things can change and you can alter your destiny by your behavior.”Struggling to come up with a name as distinctive as Horatio Hornblower, he used a placeholder based on the rugby union player Richard Sharp; eventually, he kept it, just adding an "e".

Saving Arthur Wellesley's life at the Battle of Assaye (Wellesley was unhorsed and forced to defend himself from Maratha artillerymen for a few crucial moments; Cornwell notes that if any soldier or officer had saved his life during this fight, he would almost certainly have rewarded him with a promotion); After graduating from Winchester, Sharpe read classics at the University of Cambridge, where he was the president of the Footlights Revue.

I’m trying to read someone else’s feelings and their voice and to be free at the same time so it doesn’t feel too rigid in the script,” Sharpe explains. “I’m trying to deliver his vision; I’m a facilitator.” Used to working with “facilitators” himself, in the shape of script editors, TV producers and channel executives, the writer-director has found it illuminating to experience the relationship from the other side. Also, like One Green Bottle, the family’s life in that play appears quite normal until one night all three insist they have important appointments and need to go out, though their dog is about to have puppies and someone has to stay home. Even though Dad is only set on seeing a Disneyland parade, Mom on watching a concert and the daughter on attending a meeting for members of an eccentric cult, they each insist they won’t change their plans.

Forester's Horatio Hornblower novels, which depict a Royal Navy officer's career from midshipman to Admiral of the Fleet and retirement. When he could not find a similar series for the British Army, he decided to write it himself. As a further inducement, he had fallen in love with an American woman who, for various reasons, could not leave the United States, so he relocated. He could not get a green card or work permit, so he wrote the first Sharpe novel to make a living.
