But there's another lieutenant, the one who's helping Norrington with the Interceptor while Gillette and Jack are fighting over the Dauntless. He's the one who gushes (with restraint, since he's an officer of the Royal Navy and all) that Jack must be the best pirate he's ever seen (and how). He's quite good-looking, in the same sharp-featured way as Norrington. They make a handsome (if blurry) pair, actually (hmmm...).
They *do* look rather cute together. Such a small part, but I liked him.
Problem is, Norrington never calls him by name. Does anyone recognize the actor? Could it be this guy? The age seems right, at least, though it's annoying that there's no headshot in the entry, and that the character isn't named.
By jove, I think you've got it! I searched a bit and found an offical site for Greg Ellis, and it looks like he's our man. Go here (http://www.gregellis.tv/photo_resume.html) and check out the pics. Quite a resemblance, especially the one in the bottom right-hand corner. Too bad he's only listed as "Officer", though. I suppose we get to name him :)
Ditto about pirate speech patterns. A lovely blend of typical pirate-speak and impressive vocabulary. Pirate charm school...hee!
882 pieces of accursed gold seems very specific, and Barbossa knows that number cold. I bet he's been dreaming of it for years. "It was horrible, I was being chased by 882 apples! Arrr!"
Rotfl. I'd wager his plan was to eat 882 apples after the curse was broken, to make up for all those lost years *g*
I wonder how Jack managed to impersonate a clergyman, considering his hair, his complexion, his fondness for makeup, etc. Of course, maybe that's the point, that it's in the list of charges because he *failed* to impersonate the clergyman successfully.
