2024-12-17 21:40:26 +0000 UTCIn the next Episode is a Big Ending, I would like it if you did a Salute. Why? You'll find out.

2024-12-15 01:42:03 +0000 UTCBrilliant. Next episode is a phenomenal piece of TV. You've got the Christmas special and the comic relief short The Cavalier Years to do. There's also the film / special for The Millenium - Back & Forth - well worth a look as is The 2008 Documentary as others have mentioned.
Duncan Hart
2024-12-12 00:44:30 +0000 UTCThere was also a 15min special shot for Comic Relief called 'Blackadder: The Cavalier Years' set during the English Civil War.

2024-12-11 20:54:39 +0000 UTCThey all have Universities it's just Cambridge and Oxford are the most prestigious so would be the equivalent of your Ivy League Colleges, whereas Hull is just a normal run of the mill University.

2024-12-11 20:50:41 +0000 UTCNot sure if anyone has mentioned this but once you have seen it all, it is really well worth watching the 2008 making-of documentary called “Blackadder - The Whole Rotten Saga”. There are a few documentaries about it now, but this particular one is by far my favourite and the input from the cast, writers, director and crew is great. It is on YouTube. Definitely one for after you’ve finished it all though

2024-12-11 18:49:57 +0000 UTCThe producer of Blackadder is John Lloyd. He is also the producer of and originator of the idea of Qi

2024-12-10 20:36:52 +0000 UTCokay well here we go we’ve got I would say one of the best finale episodes ever put into TV coming up. PS Brian it wasn’t this episode that you need to watch the end credits for it’s the finale

2024-12-10 16:11:02 +0000 UTCI heard it was because he wanted to do a modern day politician..but rik mayall mad alan bstard so decided against it

2024-12-10 11:09:04 +0000 UTCDo you think you would react to bad education? It’s Jack Whitehall who’s in fresh meat as the posh twat but he’s greta in it. Maybe check out a few clips? Either way mate great vids.

2024-12-10 00:24:20 +0000 UTCI read this too a long time ago. I think they were going to be members of a band and Tony Robinson was to be the shaven headed drummer - bald Rick.

2024-12-09 23:44:47 +0000 UTCBut Oxford is the dump.
Dave Roberts
2024-12-09 22:40:40 +0000 UTCThis is a series you shouldn't listen to people when they say wait for the credits. It's obvious when there's something at the end.
Brendan
2024-12-09 20:46:24 +0000 UTCThe bit about Oxford, Cambridge and Hull is even funnier - Hull is of course the terrible University out of the three of them. But Stephen Fry went to Cambridge, hence his character's aversion to Oxford. Rowan Atkinson went to Oxford, explaining his own discomfort at Melchett's assertion that Oxford is a dump.

2024-12-09 17:31:17 +0000 UTCThere is actually one more episode called black adder back and forth which was made a few years later. Not quite up to par with the rest of it but if you're a completionist it's worth a watch. It was done in more of a film like format.

2024-12-09 16:28:01 +0000 UTCif you feel the need for a crash course in recognising accents, can i recommend watching "'Allo, 'Allo". You will be an expert in no time :D
Fenn
2024-12-09 16:17:17 +0000 UTCIt's the final episode to watch to the end, it all comes seamlessly anyway so you'll see it. 👍
Ash Allen
2024-12-09 13:54:50 +0000 UTCMore uniquely English humour than British I'd have said. The Scots aren't really known for their self-deprecation.
Rob Walters
2024-12-09 03:34:13 +0000 UTCSurely it wasn't set in stone that each series is set in a progressive era than its predecessor? They could have gone back if they wanted too. I remember reading that the Fifth series would have been set in London in the Swinging Sixties before it fell through.
Rob Walters
2024-12-09 03:33:05 +0000 UTCHi king could you please consider “line of duty” it’s a really good police drama
FatSam25
2024-12-09 03:19:01 +0000 UTCgood reaction, KB! This series is by far the best but it is not the end! There are some specials you have not done yet, as I have commented before, I think a Christmas special and a special for the millennium dome in 2000 in London, they did a special episode, that was shown in a small cinema there. As for the next episode, you may finally get a tear on camera, and I kinda in a nice way hope you do as it warrants it, very poignant end to a legendary series.

2024-12-08 21:07:40 +0000 UTCThanks all for the links, it's definitely not showing up in the Blackadder collection, and couldn't find it searching either.
RobJFH
2024-12-08 20:37:11 +0000 UTCOh… and as to why there was no season five. Three main reasons 1) The cast were in demand with other work 2) It wasn’t obvious how they could write scripts as good as or better than this 3) Each season is an advance in generations of the characters, so there was no new time period to set it in There is also a 4) related to the second one, but that could spoil the final episode

2024-12-08 20:17:11 +0000 UTCOnly the last episode you med to watch til the end
Mike Currie
2024-12-08 20:11:06 +0000 UTCThis series has so many different styles of humour all layered on top of each other, and in some ways each episode has its own predominant comedy style at the centre. The brash and bold (Flasheart), the switch and bait plots (like this episode), perhaps farce with Speckled Jim, with common threads of the ridiculous, the playing off previous series events/characters at times. The humour in episode 6 is probably the most British of the lot - subtle and self deprecating. It definitely has a different aura about it in its pace. I’ll say no more…
Kevin Hussey
2024-12-08 20:08:01 +0000 UTCHaha, fair point. But I do think it's nice that Darling does get a win in this episode.
Jay
2024-12-08 20:07:33 +0000 UTCBut he had to get shot in the foot for it to happen, hardly worth it. :P

2024-12-08 19:46:45 +0000 UTCJust for the Hull of it. 😎
Jason Scade
2024-12-08 19:45:44 +0000 UTCYes, there are 2 or 3 Blackadder specials, I think. There's def 2.
Jason Scade
2024-12-08 19:44:55 +0000 UTCDon't forget Blackadder back and forth.
ade rumbold
2024-12-08 19:35:58 +0000 UTCOnly the final episode is important at the end...but not for the reason you might think.
R Lawrence
2024-12-08 19:20:31 +0000 UTCNo it's the last episode Ep 6you have to watch until the end to get the final shot, ya muppet. From series 2 to 4 one of the writers was Ben Elton, one of the hot-shot comedy writers of the 1980's.

2024-12-08 19:08:29 +0000 UTCThe “Oxford, Cambridge, Hull” bit was a great inside gag, I love the look on Blackadder’s face when Melchett says “Oxfords a complete dump”, always gets me Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie both went to Cambridge, Rowan Atkinson went to Oxford, big rival universities
Chug
2024-12-08 18:46:09 +0000 UTCLove this episode, my home town Hull gets a mention!

2024-12-08 18:20:45 +0000 UTCKB, it’s the final episode you have to watch right to the end. Very poignant. 😎

Jason Scade
2024-12-08 18:11:23 +0000 UTCI've always loved the way Stephen Fry says "arse". I seem to remember reading that it is his favourite word in the English language.
Joe Blakeley
2024-12-08 18:07:46 +0000 UTCAn interesting point (that I've nicked from Youtube comments). This is the only episode where Captain Darling actually gets one up on Blackadder.

2024-12-08 17:41:37 +0000 UTCThat Spy with the German accent was Ploppy the jailer from series 2
Mouse
2024-12-08 17:37:56 +0000 UTCIt was queen Victoria's mother that was German. Perhaps if Darling had corrected Blackadder he might have scored points, but I doubt it.
ALW
2024-12-08 17:32:19 +0000 UTCHe definitely did, I remember watching it, but I can't see it either
Joe Blakeley
2024-12-08 17:31:34 +0000 UTCHave you done episode 3. I can't see it anywhere?
