The writing and acting from Blackadder was pure genius throughout!
Back in 91 my dad had just left my mom and I to go to war the Guld War. Something I will never forget is my mom and I crying laughing at night watching Blackadder episodes. We had never even heard of the show before. But I think PBS or some other network got rights to show it. This show was a bright moment in a time we were both afraid for my dad's life. Luckily he returned home safe and sound. And had no idea why my mom and I would just start giggling about turnips and fake boobs lol.
Blackadder will forever be special to me thank you.
This is a very weird episode of "Time Team"
😂
A always hoped Tony would break into Baldrick ON a Time Team dig.
@@Capohanf1 Or that Mick would say something like you wouldn’t recognise a subtle plan if it painted itself purple and danced naked on a harpsicord singing ‘subtle plans are here again' when Baldrick, errr, Tony made a stupid suggestion.
I just woke my poor husband up because I was laughing like a rabid hyena.
Then my Mother knocked on the door because we woke her up laughing like rabid hyenas.
Now we're all sitting in bed sharing Popcorn, mead and laughing ourselves into a spasm! Thank you for giving my Mother and I something to bond over.
Yours is a family I can RESPECT 😋
@@babboon5764 we're all more then a little crazy so we make the most of it🤣
I only wish it was still showing. Half these pieces I’ve never seen. Love this genre of humor. Thanks to all involved. 👏👏👏👏🇦🇺
There was a movie?! How have a missed a movie? On the upside, I now know what I want for Mother's Day.

That was my thought exactly!
Well, minus the Mother's day bit.
It was called Blackadder: Back and Forth and it was first shown on 6 December 1999 in the UK.
I love the 'Ding Dong!' Blackadder delivers. Lovely nod to Leslie Phillips.
He's never out of character ! God bless the old sot .
Wonderful! Couldn't have hoped to find stumble upon anything better to occupy part of a rainy evening. Thanks for posting.
Even for a dry evening.
Any real fan will watch till end and see the singer, give him some love!
There was the prose Edda.
And then there was the poetic Edda.
And long after, there came the black Edda.
Wow never knew this existed 😂
I don't think it did until recently. I've been a big fan of Blackadder for decades and I've never seen this. I put it down to The Mandela Effect. It's been happening a lot.
@phily8093
Been a fan since 1990, never seen this. British beauty 😍
I know, I just now came across it and my insomnia no longer matters!

This is brilliant. The Blackadder series' are my favourite comedies. Just as funny now, as they were then.
Ohhh bugger....How did I miss this film??? Gads I absolutely loved loved loved them ALL back in the day! LOVED Rowan Atkinson in every historical genre of Black Adder....had a mad crush on him in all of his "frockery"! And all of this is why i CANNOT look at Hugh Laurie as a serious "American" doctor House! I get the giggles thinking of him as the Prince Regent or....well, any of his characters! Beyond brilliant, all of it!
23:41 - Exactly, such as in Blackadder the Third when asking about William Pitt the Younger's brother, perfectly delivering a triple whammy: 'And which Pitt would that be? Pitt the toddler? Pitt the embryo? Pitt the glint in the milkman's eye?'
Lmao!🤣🤣🤣
I truly love Blackadder and watching this had my laughing so much. True british humor at it's best.
This 'behind the scenes' video made in 1994
Gee zus - I feel suddenly very old 🙄
Fair play to the whole team, I can think of many great comedies *but I can't think of one which was better*
Most honest set time ever with superstars.
- Baldrick, why, may I ask, are you dressed like that?
- Would you like the short answer or the long one?
- Oh, the short one, please.
- WHIM...
- ...
- The short answer... is _whim?_
- Yes, my Lord.
- What, out of interest, was the long answer?
- It was _A whim._
Omg! It's the very 1st Time Team video
The french mannerisms are very accurate.
I woulda thought that baldricks food was turnips..unmashed..
rat droppings in glue
This was absolutely brilliant
Been looking for years but doubt will ever find, is the recording Tony Robinson did for the Waitrose training videos.
Nobody does quintessential Brit humour as well as the Blackadder crew…
"Action!
Hold it, hold it hold it...
Fuck off!"
(if I understood that last bit correctly)
Ive been looking for this for years! Thank you!
Tony's wonderful as Baldrick, on time Team, and on his own terrific history videos. Oh well he can't be great all the time.
Omg, this is so amazing! 🤣🤣🤣
Oh Happy Days!! :-) Wonderful stuff. Thank you for posting this.
I didn’t realise that Romans had video cams but good on them. I didn’t realise that that access to RUclips. That’s too thumbs up from me.
I've never heard re-enactors called reconstructors before.
Makes sense though...
Great share.
Also had a class mate at school by the name of Darling. (Ian Darling). His dad was the M-I-C of the CID at our local cop shop.
I looked that up, as, thanks to being an inveterate lover of all things UK, I knew what CID was, but M-I-C?? Couldn't find it anywhere. The only thing I can think of is Minister in Charge? Would they have a minister of a local constabulary? Of the region maybe, but surely not one "cop shop"?
No, they wouldn't. Maybe Master, but I don't know that rank - unless it's masonic. Lots of UK cops are in the masons. Also unlikely.
Officer in charge seems most likely, can't see any ranks that shorten to mic
Don't panic. Baldric has a cunning plan.
Brilliant!
... " DING DONG "
pure gold
He nicked Linda's magazine, on a flight to Spain !
I MISS the series. Wish it still aired on TV after Mystery! After Red Dwarf or whatever it followed in the lineup. It’s terrible the way British programming was aired in the US-once it no longer was current there!
IF not for “Mr. Bean” & Stephen Frye, Hugh Laurie, & (later) Miranda Richardson & Tony Robinson literally transporting themselves INTO the states in-person, I doubt there’d have EVER been a real appreciation of irony, wit, wry Old World humor-outside military personnel in the states.
Thank Gawd they (& Monty Python) paid us visits, or I’d have been terrified of my daddy & uncle for life! Well, baffled anyway.
I can’t remember which one (Ian McKellan, Rowan Atkinson, or Eric Idle) is said to have insisted on being addressed as “Sir” on film sets, but whenever I come across Tony Robinson’s histories, I think about how hilariously funny that must be to him, especially, & it makes me giggle involuntarily. 🤭🤣🤭🤣🤭🤣
Did he ASK to be the “red-headed stepson” in Blackadder? Or is it just that all the rest of the cast insisted on maintaining prep school character (at all times)??
Either or- it was brilliantly designed, brilliantly-played; and funny 90% of its airtime, if I remember the stand-out poignant scenes rightly.
Thanks, channel owner, for archiving whatever you’re able to load of the series. ♥️🏵⛄️🪞⚜️🏅🎖☃️
Baldrick was actually portrayed as being smarter than either Edmund or Percy in the first series (he's the one who quietly proposes that "The Black Adder" might be a better title than Edmund's original choice of "The Black Vegetable". And it's suggested by Edmund in Blackadder The Third that Baldrick's cousin Bert Baldrick - who's Mr. Gainsborough's butler's dogsbody - may have a somewhat larger vocabulary than Baldrick himself...
With the kindest of intentions as you clarly are a connoisseur of first rate comedy ...........
Are you aware the Red Dwarf broadcast in the USA was a sanitised derivative of the original UK version?
I say this because If you haven't seen the UK original you have a real treat to hunt down & watch
We need a post-Brexit Blackadder…
Blackadder as a customs inspector or senior official, with his underlinings as junior inspectors or security guards.
Episodes would involve him smuggling contraband into the UK, while fending off more senior officials. Hijinks ensue.
Now that is a proposal I think Ben Elton wouldn't turn down.
is this on the new blu ray boxset?
When did they make this? The series ended with WWI
I've never seen some of this. Why? Where can we see them?
I never saw this version. Where is it?

Using Rowan's logic, would that make Bean a villain? 🤣
I'm not sure what logic has to do with it; he was referring to Black Adder character not at all of his other roles. However, I can see Mr. Bean as a "disrupter", someone so out of touch or "Abby normal" that he does unbelievable things compared to "normal" people and creates chaos where ever he goes.
I would assume so, Mr. Bean can be childisly cruel and petty. Not a villain at the core, but having an evil streak that can be shockingly disturbing because of how alloof he is about consequences.
Pause at 0:25
Rowan's got very nice legs.
All those takes, and they cut the scene...
I honestly laughed when that came up. It was very Blackadderish.
19:32
The first time I ever seen this WHY . WERE WAS IT SHOWN ,
Never seen the Roman one?
This is an extra from Blackadder Back & Forth (Short 1999).
The Roman scene features in this film.
What, was there a movie made? When? What was it called?
Black Adder Back & Forth came out in 1999-it was a short (33 minutes), not a full movie (alas!).
@@ConnieBroski Hav e found it and watched it Connie, thanks!
Love Baldric. Just wish he was played by someone who isn't full of hate.
What the hell are you on? Trumpanzee dust? That has to be the most idiotic comment on YT today
Who is full of hate?
@@Thepourdeuxchanson One of the best validated axioms of Cognitive Psychology is:
*We see things as we are, not as they are*
Dan, you need help old chum
A like for Rowen Hugh and Stephen but Sod off Baldrick
Bizarre that the thumb down icon is as disabled as the mindset underpinning that comment
disgusting. dont play with food. vile.
Someone doesn’t get comedy it seems
@@ezrafriesner8370 I will concede that with a name like yours, a greater level of humour is necessary to get through life.
@@chriskershaw7968 say what you mean or say nothing at all.
pull your head out of your arse mate
@ezrafriesner8370 he means because your name is j***sh sounding.
Perfect example of why TV sitcoms don't make good films. You can't spin the same type of joke and delivery for one hour thirty minutes plus. The brilliance of the show highlights how awful the film is.
Nice try. The film "Blackadder: Back & Forth" had a running time of 33 minutes.
