I agree. It was a fine thing to introduce us to Hornblower's awkward social side via his interactions with Archie in the first movie, but the character should have never been brought back after that (as was the original plan, btw). Especially he should not have been in series 2 and given the lines that actually made Bush a sympathetic character in the book (standing up for Wellard, etc). Those two episodes could have been a lot more focused and a lot less messy without Archie there.

I kind of understood why they did it - for the same reason that they had Styles and Matthews coming back: It does make sense not having to establish new characters when you can just re-use an already established one. They just went a bit over the top with Archie and yes, I was also pretty miffed about them giving him Bush's lines...
But the whole mutiny plot was very different from the book in the end.

I can accept Matthews and Styles and Pellew (who also appeared a lot less in the books) more easily than Archie though. Their extended scenes didn't completely change Hornblower as a character or his relationships to other original canon characters. Unlike Archie. In addition to that, he always felt a bit underwritten to me, as a character. Yes, he has lots of screentime, but he's not a good character, IMO.

I know. I always have to laugh at Pellew's line on the show that goes something like "we shouldn't try to hang him, we should promote him", since that is what happened in the books. They didn't even to face a court martial, because nobody cared. It was great.
