Horatio Hornblower himself, Ioan Gruffudd and Jamie Bamber, the faithful Archie, join us with naval historian Kate Jamieson for a fun, lengthy look back at the series that set their careers fully in motion. We talk fireships, mullets, Robert Lindsay and David Warner, runaway pigs and prostitutes, learn why bicorn hats are rubbish, talk about a possible return of the series and decide who really did push Captain Sawyer; as the chaps diligently work their way through your questions. Be ready to utilise #WhatWouldHoratioDo and #RebootHornblower!

This was such a wonderful podcast! I was OBSESSED with the Hornblower series when it first aired when I was 21 years old. Crazy that it’s been 20 years. I have followed both Ioan and Jamie’s careers and so proud of both of them as actors and as human beings. Much love to everyone who put this interview together. It would be great to have another HH movie! Margaret in NYC

Wonderful podcast! I thought that brilliant questions were asked, and the answers did not disappoint. I also enjoyed hearing from Kate. Listening to her made me rethink just how much I know about the Royal Navy of the period!

#Reboot Hornblower Thank you for choosing me to ask Ioan Gruffudd about making a new Hornblower movie! I would like to get a letter writing campaign going to see if we can get Ioan the movie project that he's always dreamed about! Need to know what Ioan thinks about it and which movie studios..Warner Media and iTv? Thanks again, Karen Marshall
