Hello,
I’m really enjoying series 2 of the Last Kingdom, I think its fantastic work. Are you enjoying it and were you consulted in production at all?
On a similar vein, whilst I can’t see that we will ever get a TV version of “Sharpe’s Trafalgar” (well, certainly not with Sean Bean) with CGI being able to do what it can do now, I’d be fascinated to see a good TV/ movie depiction, however, I’m not sure whether there is a vehicle that would justify the costs. After all, neither Hornblower or Aubrey were there.
Surely there’s scope for a high budget long running Aubrey/Maturin series though. I always thought they got things the wrong way round, in that Hornblower should have been on the big screen (action stories) and Aubrey/Maturin on small screen (character stories).
Are there any others of your stories you would like to see on screen?
Thanks!
Jeremy
