      If you haven't seen Blackadder, then for goodness sake let it into your life as it's one of the classics.
      It's recommended to start with Season 2 as the first season was a bit of a write-off before they started getting it right.

    Rowan Atkinson is a slept on British treasure. He’s been going for years, always provided comedy, never spoke a proper word in Mr Bean, yet being an intellectual genius and extremely well spoken, and never did weird things with kids. He’s a true legend and a gentleman. And who else can say they’ve crashed a Mclaren F1? It will be a sad day when we lose someone with such humility and splendour.
