Best episode of any Blackadder
Hulme
Just a quick popularity poll. I bet you're sick to death of these
things.
But just put down which particular episode (any series) you like and why.
It's a tough one, I know. They're all extremeley good.
-
Yes they are all great! This time I'm going to stick to the rules and
name one episode -- except I can't name it, I forgot the title! But
it's in BA II where Blackadder is broke and thinking of ways to make
money and Queenie keeps taxing him. She taxes him and giggles. It's
such a simple story *everyone* relates to, absolutely pearl-shaped and
bell-toned in its truth!

Captain Cook. Rat O'Van, every time I think of someone eating Baldrick's
dishes, it just cracks me up! How DID he get so much "custard" out of

My favorite series is BA III, probably because I think Hugh Laurie was
utterly brilliant as that thicky, Prince George. That having been
said...
My favorite episode is "Chains," from BA II. The scene that lurks in the
back of my mind (or is that just a flea?), is where Edmund and the foreign
prison guards play charades in order to communicate. I also though the
ending to that episode was very clever..it certainly surprised me!

Yes it is tough,
Mine is Pricate Plane. funny all the way though. Lord Flashhard is
great and the Germans are almost as funny as the English.

My current favorite episode is "Beer" from BA II, because it's the one I
saw most recently. I can't decide what my favorite series is, because I
like them all. Oh damn, I'll just have to re-watch them all again to
figure it out.

I like the episode where Percy makes some 'green' in Blackadder 2 the best.
Why? Because it is just so funny and utterley sarcastic.

OK, my 2 cents. My current favorite series is BAGF. Why maybe I
watch too many old war documentaries off of cable TV. My current
favorite episode is from BA I with the Spanish Infanta.

Last episode of BA IV; "Goodbyeeeee..."
Why, I hear you asking?
Because it brought a pain in my chest from laughing, tears in my eyes from
emotion, and a lump in my throat because of the final scene.
It brought home to me how much Britain was hurt in WW I.
No further explanation necessary.

The best Blackadder episode? - well that's a knotty one 'cos I enjoy them
all!!
But I think I'll go for Series II - "Money" with Series III "Ink and
Incapability as a close runner up and Series I "The Queen of Spains Beard"
in third place.
Anybody agree? :-)

Since I (rather predictably) love all the episodes of all three series,
I'm going to go for the big chicken-out and say I love Blackadder's
Christmas Carol the best (if I'm allowed to, of course).
Why? Well, because it's got Blackadder II, Blackadder the Third,
Ebeneezer Blackadder and even Star Adder; because it's got Dennis Lill,
Nicola Bryant, and Ramsay Gilderdale as guest stars; because we get to
see a completely different sort of Blackadder: one who is nice; and
finally, because it has my favourite and most-quoted BA line (though
only just):
"Baldrick, you wouldn't know a subtle plan if it painted itself purple
and danced naked on a harpsichord singing "Subtle Plans Are Here
Again"."
...Oh, and I also like The Cavalier Years. :)
Cheers,
Ben
PS - In case anyone's curious, I rank the series (when I *have* to) BGF,
BII, BTT, TBA. BAXC goes in there first, and TCY follows BGF very
sharply...

I agree with that one, a classic.

That one is a Classic, but My favorite has to be either "Private

I really enjoy BAIII Nob and Nobility, Mostly because Chris "Rimmer"
Barrie is the "Hung like a baby Carrot, and a couple of Petit Pois"
french Revolutionary.
My favorite line comes from that ep "Hooray, The scarlet Pimpernel has
come to save us!!!... And you Killed him..." or a close approximate
Paul Margach
My favourite is easily The Archbishop from BA I. It is so
brilliant...historically relevant, quotable, ridiculous, everything I want
in a Blackadder episode! I think another reason I love it is because it
deals with an issue of fascination to me...I love the first series, it
seems more authentic than the others with those outdoor scenes and eerie
looking set.
Mattias Andersen
Duel and Duality......
The prince: "At the party, as I passed, all eyes turned."
BA:"And I dare say, quite a few stomachs."
The prince: "five minutes later I was in a coach, flying through the
London night, bound for the ladies home."
BA: "Oh. And which ladies home is this? A home for the elderly or a
home for the mentaly disadvantaged?"
etc. etc....... Including Mac Adder, Throat Slasher Wellington and the
Chief Mongol.....:-)

My alltime favorite is the episode where B. pretends to
sail accross the ocean, but never makes it out of the Channel.
Especially the end where he offers Lord Melchett the 'exotic wine'

Agree, "Chains" is brilliant. Oh, by the way, the other episode was not =
called "Private Pilot" but "Private Plane", it seems we are following in =
the footsteps of alt.fan.monty.python, where we often have to correct =
grossly incorrect quotes.

Dear Rick,
There is a saying in Liverpool. "Wersya sensa youma?"
It was a joke and I do have the whole script to every single
Blackadder episode memorised. In fact my brain is so clogged up with
Blackadder that I sometimes can't remember what my own name is but can
remember every word spoken by Captain Redbeard Rum...
Frightening isn't it?
Yours,

You have a woman's name, my Lord. I'll bet that your name has never

My favorite quote, from Blackadder II. "Baldrick, you'd laugh at a

Robin Halligan
You are right it is called money Blackadder II/IV
And the quote goes like this.
Mrs Pants: What about the privies?
Edmund: When the master craftsman who created this home was looking at the
sewage, he said to himself, "Romeo," -- for 'twas his name -- "Romeo,
let's make them functional, and comfortable."
Mr Pants: Oh, well, that seems nice, doesn't it, Dear!
Edmund: I think we understand each other, sir. So sold, then. (goes to
a pot and pours into a cup) Drink?
Mrs Pants: (insistent for a real answer) What about the privies?
Edmund: (doesn't give away either of the two cups he holds) Well, what we're
talking about in, erm, privy terms is the very latest in front-wall,
fresh-air orifices, combined with a wide-capacity gutter installation
below.
Mrs Pants: You mean you crap out of the window.
Edmund: Yes!
Mrs Pants: Well! In that case, we'll *definitely* take it! (takes a cup from Edmund)
I can't stand those dirty indoor things.
