If you haven't, you should watch the drama "Wilde", with Stephen Fry giving an amazing performance as Oscar Wilde.

2024-11-07 19:48:43 +0000 UTCThe reason Tim McInnery wasn't a regular in the third series and has a completey different character in this one, was becasue he was afraid of being typecast as the idiot sidekick.

2024-11-06 00:56:09 +0000 UTCI've never seen game of thrones but the guy you were talking about (Tim mcinnery) has acted in a lot of Shakespeare since blackadder days so maybe that's what made his voice change a bit.

2024-11-04 01:00:21 +0000 UTCIt’s a show I loved when I was 17 and back when Ben Elton was a comic genius, in my mind., However, only a few episodes work for me today. Mostly because a lot of the dialogue consisted of meaningless fillers like “As pointy as a very pointy man called mr pointy wearing a very pointy hat” 🥱 Series 4 was a big step up, in the comedy writing. And Stephen Fry, who was a bit rubbish in series 2, made it a lot funnier from S3E6 onwards.

2024-11-04 00:31:14 +0000 UTCYeah I agree, also I think yes minister tries too hard at times to be funny, at times it's just a bunch of posh Eton politicians saying things without much meaning which is meant to be funny.

2024-11-03 14:09:45 +0000 UTCYes he was one of the policemen . He was in other episodes as well as other characters.

2024-11-03 10:57:16 +0000 UTCThere's no contest, Fawlty Towers is far funnier... I do admire the writing of Blackadder though and I have fond memories of watching it with my dad and it being one of our favourites... Having watched it a few times now with American reactors including KB, I've come to the conclusion that it's nowhere near as funny as I remember it from my youth... I still like and rate Blackadder but it's probably not even in my top 10 UK TV funniest comedies of all time anymore!

2024-11-03 10:17:04 +0000 UTCWho's the big guy ordering the firing squad, with the 'tash? His voice sounds familiar. Was he in 'The young ones' at all?

2024-11-02 23:09:18 +0000 UTCBrilliant episode, the whole trial sequence was just comedy gold. Great reaction Boomer, i could tell you loved this episode. I love animals but the scene when Blackadder just brutally shoots the pigeon was made so funny because of how abrupt it was and he just looked like he didn’t give a f**k at all. Also Fry’s shouting cracks me up every time, his face looks like it’s about to burst because he’s straining so much.

2024-11-02 21:29:50 +0000 UTCStephen Fry is a treasure, and amazing that he was only 28 during Blackadder II, and 32 in this series. There's a small clip from QI a few years ago where he puts on the Melchett moustache again...BAAAH!

2024-11-02 19:59:10 +0000 UTCGreat episode Can’t wait for your reaction to episode 4 of this series (one after next) No spoilers but I’m 100% confident it’ll be your favourite episode of the entire show lol

2024-11-02 19:57:13 +0000 UTCGreat reaction. Tim McInnerny is a great actor and it's always fun to watch actors do very different roles. He has played lots of different characters, some charming, some dark. Same with Hugh Laurie: playing the optimistic English idiot in Blackadder, then the sour, melancholy American main character in House.

2024-11-02 19:49:32 +0000 UTCI've been waiting feckin' AGES for this one to come up!!! Hurrah!

2024-11-02 19:28:01 +0000 UTCBritish actors all get their training in stage productions and a lot of Shakespeare so they're expected to be able to play any type of role and to speak clearly and, most of all, loudly so the audience in the upper balcony can hear them. Stephen Fry also played the Master of Laketown in the second and third Hobbit movies.

2024-11-02 19:17:25 +0000 UTCthe way he says no to his name is so ridiculously funny

2024-11-02 18:39:15 +0000 UTCRowan Atkinson said they set it in various times in history to avoid being compared to fawlty towers which was the most prominent sitcom of that era but as much as I like blackadder the writing and acting in fawlty towers is just brilliant. And it's easy to watch and has a flow to it. I have the same criticism of Yes minister - sometimes you can't tell if the dialogue is meant to be funny or not, in that. You have to wait for it to be obviously funny or just accept the dialogue as a bit quirky but not funny.
