Iconic scene from Sharpe's Eagle, lovingly recreated in LEGO stop motion! Sir Henry Simmerson reports to Sir Arthur Wellesley, who would go on to be the Duke of Wellington following the loss of the Kings Colours. Sharpe is promoted to Captain shortly before the battle of Talavera.

Highlighted quote:
(Sir Arthur) "This is a report from Major Hogan, which differs somewhat from your account, Sir Henry."
(Sir Henry Simmerson) "Major Hogan is merely an engineer, sir."
(Sir Arthur) "Major Hogan's coat buttons up tight over a number of other duties, Sir Henry. Major Hogan reports a number of losses, Sir Henry. He says you first lost your head, and instead of destroying the bridge, you marched over it. He says you then lost your nerve, and ran from a small French patrol. He says you lost ten men, a Major and two sergeants. He says you finally lost your sense of honour and destroyed the bridge, cutting off a rescue party led by Lieutenant Sharpe. Major Hogan leaves the worst to the last. He says you lost the King's Colours."
(Sir Henry Simmerson) "The fault was not mine, sir. Major Lennox must answer."
(Sir Arthur) "Major Lennox answered with his life. As you should have done if you had any sense of honour. You lost the Colours of the King of England. You disgraced us, sir. You shamed us, sir. You will answer."
