A military history of the 17th century and the 18th century
Who remembers this series. Starting Richard O'Sullivan. I think it was popular. Wiki.
Watch Episode 1 here
Yes, I do! Not the most convincing actor for the role, in my opinion, but it as all good, rollicking fun a la Three Musketeers or Robin Hood! Thanks for the link, I might take a look 😀
I remember the series, it was not that great from memory. Got to say I preferred Robin of Sherwood and the much earlier The Flashing Blade.
Here in the U.S. Disney once had a series about a bunch of smugglers in England led by a church vicar that was titled "Scarecrow." It was a very entertaining series. I wonder if there are any episodes on You Tube.
@Simon...I agree, The Flashing Blade was my favourite if thus genre, too!
Before my time, but... now I finally get what this Alexei Sayle sketch was referencing;https://youtu.be/5Bryk2m586g
Nice one Club not seen that before
