What is that you're saying? I do remember, though, there's an episode in Hornblower in the West Indies where they see a steam tug named Temeraire, and Hornblower tells one of the middies to go down and fetch Captain Bush because ahahah, well, he's going to want to see this? :>

And yeah, the HH plotline reminds me a lot of the Brothers Grimm with a dose of Hans Anderson heartache.
