Captain Cook - When General Haig unveils his new strategy to move his drinks cabinet six inches closer to Berlin, Blackadder volunteers to be Official War Artist.

Corporal Punishment - Orders for Operation Insanity arrive and Blackadder breaches regulations by eating the messenger. Can the Flanders Pigeon Murderer avoid the firing squad?

Major Star - The Russian Revolution produces two more appalling results: an offensive by Germany and a really offensive Charlie Chaplin impression by Baldrick.

Private Plane - German machine guns in front, British firing squads behind - the only way out is up-tiddly-up-up...

    Army farce

    I prefer Rowan Atkinson as Mr. Bean. Somehow he didn't seem quite as funny in this Blackadder series which contained rather more dialogue than action.

    Blackadder at his best

    Superb, i just had to watch one episode after another. Time has done nothing to diminish this series. The setting is the British trenches during the 1st world war and you are treated to Richard Curtis and Ben Elton's somewhat ridiculous vision of the relationship between the different levels of the officers and men. If you only watch one thing with Rowan Atkinson this is a must. Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie, Tony Robinson and Tim McInnerny are all excellent.
