Sergeant Obadiah Hakeswill ...
Sinister and evil, indeed. Great series.
Fine series, and one of the most memorable and evil television villains of all time. Per a book on the Sharpe series that I have, Sean Bean recommended PP for the part of Sgt Hakeswill-they were long-time friends, and that gave their performances off each other greater resonance , because the audience ‘picked up’ on the fact that the two men DID have a shared past. PP also had an excellent, “Good Guy” role in Solomon Kane, as a kindly Puritan who aids the title character (who is one of Robert E Howard’s creations, and a much more interesting one than his more famous Conan IMO.)
