    Thats right, if you only know him from the 'House' series, it's hard to believe he does comedy. IN fact, for me, I cannot accept him in his most successful role as the boring laconic Doctor, he will ALWAYS be that upper class dimwit in Black Adder, or at least, for his comedic roles.

    Jeeves and Wooster aired after blackadder but I think Laurie’s character George having a cousin named Bertie is too cool of a coincidence. Although I guess Laurie’s Berty Wooster would be considerable older than George.

Laugh tracks were briefly popular around the 60s and 70s and yet for some reason even now, 60 years later, people still go on about shows having laugh tracks when it's actually a very very rare practice. It is much more common for situation comedies to either have no laughter at all these days, or in the cases when they do have laughter, a studio audience is present.

    To enable this clip to make more sense the person posting it should also have included the bit where the three of them were actually painting the paintings beforehand. You would then have seen who did which one, and it would have made Blackadder's claim here that he painted the picture that George actually painted make more sense. Great clip though, 'Blackadder Goes Forth' is one of the best TV series' ever, the final scene of the last episode has been described by some TV writers as one of the greatest scenes in the history of television.

There unflinching acts of bravery in the face of the enemy. Lions led by donkeys aka the top brass. This series especially the final scene over the top should be shown every year around remberanace day. 11/11/11. So the younger generation can get some sort of insight into what it is like. Yes there is humour but also homesickness, disalustionment and above all worry and fear. (we shall not forget them).
