i like to see men from the 19th century in a situation

Girl, do NOT let that 19th century soldier try to fool you with weaponized incompetence. Yes he DOES know how to cook and clean, that's like half of his job!! Girl he has a sewing kit with him to make basic repairs to his clothes, I don't care if he calls it a "hussif." He has like five different types of clothes brushes and knows how to neatly pack everything he owns.

this is a long post but i have to make this rant bc i've been drawing/writing some scenes from sharpe's justice and like. the bedroom sharpe's staying in at the inn is so confusing to me in the layout. like. this is what i've managed to piece together (and is by NO MEANS 100% accurate, just a general layout i drew from what we could see.) the biggest question is WHAT is that second doorway for, and what would fill the question marks in the middle of the room, besides the cameras?
the first scene we see of the bedroom, he's going up the stairs, and enters the room to see lady anne. he enters through the door, then crosses through another door
you can still see the doorway he entered through behind his hand- he's looking diagonally towards lady anne, who is by the fireplace. anne and the camera move to circle around the left hand of the room to meet him at the "doorway".
the room is so damn dark its hard to tell whats in the lower left hand corner. adjusting the levels theres something almost rectangular in shape- a big armoire? a partition? a doorway in the bg? i'm leaning towards partition (they might've wanted to block anything that might've been modern in the room behind it, or maybe its a bathroom?).
it also looks like she's passing by curtains, so I assume it's the bed curtains she's walking by. she keeps moving, the scene is too dark, before she meets sharpe in the doorway.
there's this wooden thing behind them that i have no idea what it would be. there is very clearly space between this wooden thing and the doorway- look at all the darkness around it.
in a different scene during the day, we see Sharpe at Big Window 2, next to his shaving station. Harper enters the room through the main door, and meets him at Big Window 1. there is clearly no wall between the windows.
the last scene we get is sharpe at Big Window 2, washing his face at his shaving station. Anne enters from the doorway and crosses to meet him towards the middle of the room. (the wall with the fireplace confused me for the longest time bc the lighting was so flat and strange- turns out the fireplace juts out from the wall- we see the little dresser, and the side with the partition is also darker than the fireplace side).
(the lighting for the fireplace is more clear here).
Obviously we almost never see what's in the middle of the room because that's where the cameras are set up- what's killing me is why there's a second doorway, when as as far as i can tell, there's no real split of the room. we can clearly see the wood paneling in the shot where anne and sharpe are touching hands, and there's enough darkness to indicate whatever the wood thing is behind anne isn't connected to it, there's space between it and the door or w/e it is.
actually now that i'm sitting here looking at this. is this a gigantic doorway? how would the camera get this angle if it was an actual doorway? i feel like a door right here doesn't make sense bc the rest of the room isnt closed off, as we can see in the scene with harper- you can easily go between the windows with no walls there. the cameras obvs are set up where the question marks are...
this literally isn't important at all but WHAT the hell is going on in that corner by the doorway!! what is that thang if its not a doorway? look at how thin it is!

if you really think about it, sharpe's enemy is a christmas movie.
i'm trying to purchase some very rare Sharpe publicity photos that I've never seen before and trying to negotiate with the seller and

one of my favorite parts in my wip where teresa and sharpe meet after talavera...their teasing is everything to me
being a fan of a female fictional character is like yes im in love with her soulfully and carnally but i am ALSO her defence attorney her ambassador her pr manager her representative her missionary her right hand arm man her silly rabbit. her scholar her explainer the last man standing in her army. phd in explaining her nuance and depth priesthood in her church. could i be talking about other things?? move on?? maybe!!! were i not the animated suit of armor in her temple bound to protect her for eternity
