An appreciation of Horatio Hornblower...
This has got to be the most wonderfully bizarre fan tribute I have ever come across. Is anyone here familiar with Rach and her stuff i (s)watched blog? Rach's blog is dedicated to popular culture and...erm...nail polish and being a bit of a Hornblower fan she has chosen six nail polishes to accompany a highly entertaining summary of The Duel. I have no words to express quite how fabulous this is. You can appreciate the full creative genius of Rach's post here Horatio Hornblower Appreciation Day: "The Even Chance" (and a few polishes), but allow me to summarise....

Archie takes Horatio down to the mess,
where he meets other midshipmen
and proceeds to be nerdy and violently seasick.

Horatio's refusal to narc earns him some good old-fashioned discipline
in the rigging, in the cold wind and rain. :(
