Sorry to bother you again, this is the second time in 3 days that I’ve asked you a question! I was just looking at the Sean Bean website about an old rumour (about 2000) concerning a Sharpe Christmas Special, and it quoted you as saying “…(as) to the question of whether Sharpe will ever be filmed again…I have to give the usual answer, I suspect not. I think the Indian books pose too many problems, but there is a real chance that they will make a Sharpe Christmas special, but not, I think, for this coming Christmas – it will be for 2001 if it happens at all. There does seem to be some real enthusiasm for the project and more importantly, a realistic chance of raising the money, so I’ve sent off a story and can only live in hope. It also depends on Sean Bean agreeing, but I have no reason to think he won’t.” I was just wondering if you could tell us what the story was about, and that if it never makes it to the small screen would it be published as a novel or a short story? Once again, thanks for your time, and I hope you had a good holiday! Dan Price
