Sharpe's Rifles: A LEGO tribute - Over the Hills and Far Away, by John Tams

Richard Sharpe and the 95th Rifles receive a #lego (& LEGO-Compatible) recreation of almost all the characters from the 1990s TV series, to the classic accompaniment of Over the Hills and Far Away by John Tams, who played Daniel Hagman in the series. No copyright infringement intended, only a tribute to the series and song, which is one of my favourite! #napoleonicwars #sharpe Check out my blog at In this video is: Richard Sharpe Pat Harper Dan Hagman Harris Isaiah Tongue Ben Perkins Francis Cooper William Fredrickson Sir Arthur Wellesley, the Duke of Wellington Michael Hogan Obadiah Hakeswill Harry Price Nairn Thomas Leroy Jack Spears Mungo Monroe Hector Ross Sir Henry Simmerson Pierre Ducos Michel Debreton Private Clayton and Sally Clayton Lord John Rossendale Ramona Harper Brian Windham Teresa Monero Jane Gibbons/Sharpe Lucille Castineau Lieutenant Ayres Rifleman Skillimore This video also features photos related to the Battle of Talavera (1809) and the Siege of Badajoz (1812), which are depicted in Sharpe's Eagle and Sharpe's Company. You can read about the Siege of Badajoz, represented in LEGO by looking at my blog: For those who never watched Sharpe, it follows Richard Sharpe as he is promoted from the ranks for saving Sir Arthur Wellesley's life in Portugal during the Peninsular War. He raises through the ranks and fights in major battles, before fighting finally at the Battle of Waterloo. The minifigures used in this are a mixture of LEGO Custom Napoleonic Wars torsos, and the excellent Napoleonic Wars line available on aliexpress.

There's forty shillings on the drum, To those who volunteer to come, To 'list and fight the foe today Over the Hills and far away. O'er the hills and o'er the main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain King George commands and we obey Over the hills and far away When duty calls me I must go To stand and face another foe But part of me will always stray Over the hills and far away O'er the hills and o'er the main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain King George commands and we obey Over the hills and far away (Interlude) If I should fall to rise no more As many comrades did before Then ask the pipes and drums to play Over the hills and far away O'er the hills and o'er the main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain King George commands and we obey Over the hills and far away Then fall in lads behind the drum With colours blazing like the sun Along the road to come what may Over the hills and far away O'er the hills and o'er the main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain King George commands and we obey Over the hills and far away O'er the hills and o'er the main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain King George commands and we obey Over the hills and far away O'er the hills and o'er the main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain King George commands and we obey Over the hills and far away O'er the hills and o'er the main Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain King George commands and we obey Over the hills and far away
