Ioan Gruffudd, Robert Lindsay.
The year is 1795. As England prepares for war with France, young Horatio Hornblower reports for duty aboard the battleship Justinian, where he is under the command of the sadistic Midshipman Simpson. Transferred to the Indefatigable when war erupts, Hornblower proves his mettle in combat. But his career is threatened when they come upon the flaming wreckage of the Justinian and Simpson is among the survivors. On a vital mission, Simpson's treachery nearly costs Hornblower his life and a final showdown is inevitable.
