Napoleonic weekend at Fort Amherst filming with Sean Bean

The 5th/60th Royal American Rifles were asked to participate in the filming of a documentary for the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo for the History Channel. The filming took place at Fort Amherst in Chatham. Day one included drill then filming in the afternoon. Sean Bean, alias Mr Richard Sharpe, was in attendance on the Sunday. We met him briefly and got a photo, he was very friendly and was also impressed with the reenactors attention to detail and knowledge.
There was a great night in the guard house on the Saturday with drink, food and song. 
A great weekend.
