Not great but entertaining enough

Thanks to a heroic charge lead by Richard Sharpe, Wellington takes the last French stronghold of Toulouse. Napoleon surrenders and the war is over. However, Sharpe is accused of stealing French treasure and murdering two French soldiers in the process, a sentence that carries the death penalty. In addition, his wife has gone back to London and taken all his money.An episode that started in great fashion with a very exciting battle scene. I was expecting and hoping that this battle would occupy the entire episode but it ends rather quickly, as does the war. From then on it's all about skulduggery and domestic issues as Sharpe is accused of crimes and his wife, out of the blue, up and leaves and takes all his money.Neither of these plots make too much sense and just seem about melodrama for the sake of it. There are some good twists and turns along the way, some interesting alliances and some good action scenes. These make up for the weak plot.

Its an old time fun

By this point we all know the abbreviated bullet Points of the series, Sharpe get in and out of trouble. It is old time story telling where the Hero gets in trouble and because of good story telling we fear for him (well that and it is Sean) but he gets out of it. No Politics of the day no SJW just good ole fashion fun story telling.
