Sorry, we can't find any suggestions at the moment.
Hornblower captures the French vessel, Le Reve, and is asked by Pellew to sail her back to England so that she can be outfitted for the English navy, and also, as a favor, to convey the unusual Duchess of Wharfedale back home. Unfortunately, Le Reve, Hornblower, the duchess and the crew are captured by the Spanish and imprisoned. There, Horatio finds Kennedy, wasted and hopeless from months in solitary. Against the odds, Horatio must find a way to escape with Kennedy, against Hunter's protests, and with the growing suspicion that the duchess may not be who she appears.

| User ReviewBrittany VHim and his damnable honor...that aside, love this one. Great series, plot, action, twists, etc. And Archie's back <333 |
| User ReviewKeijo JAmazingly consistent quality in this series. Perhaps not as good as the first one but still great movie. Great character development. |
| User ReviewKat THornblowers first love is killed while he is trying to save her. He shows is lost well, and makes you believe that he really was heartbroken |
| User ReviewJackie MHilarity! Cherie Lunghi is FANTASTIC is in this, and Robert Lindsay gives another great performance as Pellew. Gruffudd is wonderful, and Jamie Bamber is back as Archie. <3 I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good naval history romp. |
| User ReviewRob AMy family and I have watched all of the Horatio Hornblower series movies several times and completely enjoyed them both times. Strong story lines and superb acting make these movies fantastic (without the need for sex and foul language). This is Ioan Gruffudd at his best, and is likely how he was discovered for larger movies. Our only sorrow is that the series isn't continuing. Cheers to A&E! |
| User ReviewHannah RAll of the A&E Hornblower adaptations are excellent. They aren't 100% identical to the books, but they capture the spirit quite well, and the production quality is high. The actors are also brilliant, and portray favorite characters quite well. |
| User ReviewMichael BThird of the great telefilm adaptations of HH. Gruffudd was great as Hornblower. Please, more of these! |
| User ReviewThe MI like seeing Horatio on land. The Duchess makes this episode very interesting, and I love Kennedy in this one. (Viewed 19 March 2009) |
| User ReviewSteve Si liked this entry of hornblower alot, as horatio and his crew are captured and jailed while transporting a duchess to england, who isn't who she seems. i thought this one was very interesting for two reasons, both having to do with hornblower himself. firstly, it's really neat to see how the enemy regards horatio in almost an envy of his abilities, and secondly, his interaction with the duchess and simple flirtations are something we haven't seen from this stoic all business character. really good stuff from star ioan gruffudd. |
| User ReviewJohn GMore leadership challenges from his surly crew while in Spanish captivity. Of course only true courage, honour and integrity prevail. Another excellent installment in the Hornblower series. |
