		Chronicling the rise of 17-year-old Horatio Hornblower (Fantastic Four's Ioan Gruffudd) from a seasick midshipman at port in 1795 to the courageous captain of the HMS Hotspur in 1803, AandE's Hornblower plunges its audience into the world of the British Royal Navy at the height of its power.
		Midshipman Hornblower, Lieutenant Hornblower, and Hornblower and the Hotspur), the telefilms alternate between painstakingly exact transcriptions of the text (down to the dialogue) to wildly divergent dramatizations that remain faithful in spirit, if not in fact.
		Across the three seasons' worth of stories, the writers continuously develop Hornblower from a callow youth to a confident young man, ably conveying the relationships that influence his personal growth with an ensemble of elegantly drawn supporting characters including Captain Sir Edward Pellew (Robert Lindsey), a surrogate father for the young officer.
