Not a funny commentary to this. After firing exercises artillery guys went to target area, maybe out of curiosity, maybe for an inspection, I don't know. They were not firing HE rounds, but shrapnel, that explodes while still in the air which sends a cone of metal darts or ball bearings (whatever particular shells contain) towards surface. Guys stand there in silence, it didn't felt comfy, of course, there were no bodies there or anything like that, it just felt like the area is full of death itself.
This is actually a USMC tradition, affectionately known as the Hog's Tooth. When a scout sniper graduates from school he is presented with a single 7.62x51mm cartridge as a symbol of the 'bullet with his name on it'. At this point he is a PIG (professionally instructed gunman), if he kills an enemy sniper in combat and removes the cartridge from the enemy sniper's chamber he is considered to be invincible as he now has the bullet with his name on it in his possession so it can never be fired. He also graduates to a HOG (hunter of gunmen), superstition for sure but ask anyone in the military and those superstitions run deep.
Is that where the term "pigs" used to call policemen come from? Or is that a different one because in movies, I usually see villains addressing cops as pigs
Rowan Atkinson, Tony Robinson, Hugh Laurie, Stephen Fry, Tim McInnerny, Miranda Richardson, and Rik Mayall all on the same show is one of the greatest moments in British television, second only to Monty Python.
@@leopinty5103 You say not everyone "was" there to watch it and Mr. Bean "is" quite a popular show, but Mr. Bean started not a year after this show, so they're really from the same time period, and I must say that I've personally seen more reruns of Blackadder than Bean in my country (Germany).
@Thomas Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that Hugh Laurie had a role in Blackadder I. I know that he was in the final episode of series 2 as the conniving German prince, though. Am I right in saying so?
For anyone who doesn't know, there's actually some (mostly unreliable, but a few letters) evidence that soldiers actually did this in both the first and second world wars and also that a few soldiers carved/penned common German names into their bullets because they thought it would make them more likely to hit. It kind of makes sense when you think about it - when surviving standard warfare as an individual is essentially reduced to pure luck rather than skill superstitions will take hold fairly quickly because they give the soldiers a feeling of personal control, even when the reality is that 90% of their unit isn't ever going home and there's basically nothing they could do to make their chances better than anyone elses. Plus, if you get someone who does that surviving for a while/getting more kills other soldiers will start to copy their superstitions. (I have no idea if any troops other than British ones did this, but presumably it spread to troops from other countries that they were fighting alongside)
In some ways it’s quite useful. Generally in a battle, the man who expects death will likely live while the man who wishes to live will receive a quick death. It’s no guarantee, but it is an advantage.
@nunyabusiness3786 Yes, but he got his stats wrong - roughly ninety percent of Tommies on the Western Front survived the war, although some of them were wounded.
"Or alternatively: The greatest work of fiction ever since the vows of fidelity were included in the French marriage services" That is one fine cup of tea right over there.
I agree--Sir Tony Robinson is the most versatile actor I've ever seen. "Run around naked ? Sure, why not...play the unhygienic idiot in Blackadder? Sounds like fun.. Dangle over the side of a cliff? If you say so"__"....And Time Team has saved my sanity--just hearing his voice makes me relax and forget about Covid and the Greasy Orange Blob who is selling out our democracy
@Duwang Joestar I have yet to witness a crowd that goes from dying laughter to a dead silence in less than a tenth of a second. Not counting mass shootings.
FYI that soldier who brought the revolver later got a medical education, lost his accent and got a top medical position in an American hospital where he solved countless medical mysteries.

As we all know, it isn't the bullet with our name on it we need to worry about, but those addressed "to whom it may concern."
I believe the saying is, "a bullet may have your name on it, but shrapnel is addressed to whom it may concern."
@@SuperiorBrick no its "a bullet may have your name on it, but shrapnel is addressed to dear grid square " I have actually worked with the artillery
🤣🤣🤣
A bullet has your name
A grenade has “to whom ever it concerns”
A mortar has “dear grid coordinates”
Not a funny commentary to this. After firing exercises artillery guys went to target area, maybe out of curiosity, maybe for an inspection, I don't know. They were not firing HE rounds, but shrapnel, that explodes while still in the air which sends a cone of metal darts or ball bearings (whatever particular shells contain) towards surface. Guys stand there in silence, it didn't felt comfy, of course, there were no bodies there or anything like that, it just felt like the area is full of death itself.
- What could any patriotic chap have against this magnificient mag

Lol
Always loved the sarcasm and speed of Blackadder's responses
*_That insult by Blackadder about the brain just hurts._*
Rowan Atkinsons's accent for this is great and so are the jokes.
Some people: "This isn't funny!"
Rowan Atkinson: "Ok, I'll just shut up forever then."
...
curiouscat1997 it’s all part of his cunning plan.
He did starr in other shows after blackadder, like "the thin blue line" wich is also well worth watching
And thus gave birth to mr bean
And that guys was the birth of a legend...
*Mr.Bean*
His pronunciation is so relaxing & treat to the ear ❤️
It always gets me how Stacked with supplies Baldrick is in this series, walking around with about 10 bags of stuff, he knows what's up.
Gets Shot...."I should have written my name on a second bullet...."
One of the best lines in BBC history :)
This is actually a USMC tradition, affectionately known as the Hog's Tooth. When a scout sniper graduates from school he is presented with a single 7.62x51mm cartridge as a symbol of the 'bullet with his name on it'. At this point he is a PIG (professionally instructed gunman), if he kills an enemy sniper in combat and removes the cartridge from the enemy sniper's chamber he is considered to be invincible as he now has the bullet with his name on it in his possession so it can never be fired. He also graduates to a HOG (hunter of gunmen), superstition for sure but ask anyone in the military and those superstitions run deep.
SilentNight1647 What if the chamber is empty as if the enemy sniper missed till the last shot?
@@PaulyRenzeth I think it is fair to say that none of those had your name on them then!
PIG & HOG, eh?.. 😏
Just about as intelligent a comment as Baldrick would make..well almost !!!
Is that where the term "pigs" used to call policemen come from? Or is that a different one because in movies, I usually see villains addressing cops as pigs
Hugh Laurie, Rowan Atkinson and Stephen Fry. There may surely be a better trio of actors but they are bloody amazing.
Rowan Atkinson, Tony Robinson, Hugh Laurie, Stephen Fry, Tim McInnerny, Miranda Richardson, and Rik Mayall all on the same show is one of the greatest moments in British television, second only to Monty Python.
its so annoying seeing people reference this as mr bean and dr house... this was literally one of the biggest shows in the world during its time
Not everyone was there to watch it, and Mr Bean is quite a popular show, so they reference it to that.
@@leopinty5103 You say not everyone "was" there to watch it and Mr. Bean "is" quite a popular show, but Mr. Bean started not a year after this show, so they're really from the same time period, and I must say that I've personally seen more reruns of Blackadder than Bean in my country (Germany).
@@BlommaBaumbart same in hungary, maybe they screen it on Comedy Central while I haven't seen a Mr. Bean rerun for 10 years
This scene is so quintessentially Blackadder. A perfect scene to show someone if they want to know what the show is all about
Dr. House and Mr. Bean at the same time is weird af.
They did it for years
I had no idea this existed until RUclips put it in my recommendations, but now I need more
Jesus, Hugh looks sooo young. And Mr. Atkinson aged remarkably well
British people really have best humor!!!
Humour* and yes we do
@@AndrewMRoots-et2ow my mistake, English isn't my native language.
@@abskorditis1232 My bad, I was just having a joke and now I feel like a dickhead
I started noticing this back in the 60s with the Beatles movies, and then moving on to Marty Feldman, and then graduating to Monty Python.
joke*
@@partlycloudy2526
Who knew Mr. Bean and Dr. House served together in the war.
Interestingly enough, they also lived together in the middle ages, during the Elizabethan Era and in the Regency...
@Thomas Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that Hugh Laurie had a role in Blackadder I. I know that he was in the final episode of series 2 as the conniving German prince, though. Am I right in saying so?
Dr House and Mr Bean together, the best time-line
And then they died.
who died...no one died, the aliens prob took back mr bean....SWOOSH
As an European I wouldn't call England "the best timeline"
For anyone who doesn't know, there's actually some (mostly unreliable, but a few letters) evidence that soldiers actually did this in both the first and second world wars and also that a few soldiers carved/penned common German names into their bullets because they thought it would make them more likely to hit.
It kind of makes sense when you think about it - when surviving standard warfare as an individual is essentially reduced to pure luck rather than skill superstitions will take hold fairly quickly because they give the soldiers a feeling of personal control, even when the reality is that 90% of their unit isn't ever going home and there's basically nothing they could do to make their chances better than anyone elses. Plus, if you get someone who does that surviving for a while/getting more kills other soldiers will start to copy their superstitions.
(I have no idea if any troops other than British ones did this, but presumably it spread to troops from other countries that they were fighting alongside)
In some ways it’s quite useful. Generally in a battle, the man who expects death will likely live while the man who wishes to live will receive a quick death. It’s no guarantee, but it is an advantage.
@nunyabusiness3786 Yes, but he got his stats wrong - roughly ninety percent of Tommies on the Western Front survived the war, although some of them were wounded.
You all thought something else when he said “that’s not the only small thing here...@
0:29 Oh shame
Ye
This show is pure comedic gold. Ive watched it over 10 times and i never seem to get enough
Gotta say love the British sense of humor, and thats coming from an american.
wait- isn't mr bean bri'ish?
@@krishna2803 yeah
I gotta say American humor sucks and that’s coming from
@@krishna2803 It isn't even Mr. Bean in this video, it's just the same actor.
This man is pure talent! :D :D He can be intelligent, savage and funny at the same time! :D
Which one? Camera man?
@@dmitrys.4741 Haha, good one. We both know who I am talking about, right?
"...'cause I won't ever shoot myself"
"Oh shame"

The ironic thing is that some of them did shoot themselves - it just got too much for them
1:50 villager accepts trade

"Why's mrBean looking like Hitler?"

"Ooohh..."
I thought it was Stalin lol
@@akrepiidfiresupportvehicle2289 now you say it, he really does look like Stalin

He sounds like a villager at 1:50
Hm
I wish we would get a season 5 of blackadder based on modern business, government or banking. This is pure gold
Ok so this is where Dr. House lost his leg & got the vicodin addiction
"Or alternatively: The greatest work of fiction ever since the vows of fidelity were included in the French marriage services"
That is one fine cup of tea right over there.
"Oh shame" this line is a masterclass in understatement

0:40 , new line for Zazoo
Everybody recognizing Rowan Atkinson and Hugh Laurie, nobody recognizing the great Tony Robinson.. Makes me sad ):
I know him from Time Team! What a great guy!
I agree--Sir Tony Robinson is the most versatile actor I've ever seen. "Run around naked ? Sure, why not...play the unhygienic idiot in Blackadder? Sounds like fun.. Dangle over the side of a cliff? If you say so"__"....And Time Team has saved my sanity--just hearing his voice makes me relax and forget about Covid and the Greasy Orange Blob who is selling out our democracy
The laugh track detracts from this, to be honest.
@Duwang Joestar google stock laugh tracks, i found this specific one in like 5 minutes, its not a real audience, it very, very, very rarely is.
@Duwang Joestar I have yet to witness a crowd that goes from dying laughter to a dead silence in less than a tenth of a second. Not counting mass shootings.
@@FakeEgirl do your research. blackadder has a live audience
I'll admit this was my first time hearing Rowan Atkinson's speaking voice.
Li have you seen the lion king? He's Zazu :)
@@fearless_cloud wait really??? I had no idea!
@Kistler Clipz well he doesn't speak properly,he speak in really small sentences and anyway he's putting up an accent.
1:09 yep, very British
the audience must have really good lungs to laugh like that every 3 seconds in short and controllable bursts
FYI that soldier who brought the revolver later got a medical education, lost his accent and got a top medical position in an American hospital where he solved countless medical mysteries.
I understood that reference
Dang spoilers
And he was once also crown prince of Britain
It seemed to me you were talking bout Dr. Watson of sherlock
1:00
"Wott?"
Baldric: "If I owned the bullet with my name on it, I'd never get hit by it."
*German machine gun* "Who zaid there vas only ze one bullet mit your name on'zit?"
The z in german accent replaces every single th sound and nothing else, cos they cant pronounce it for some reason
Who says zere was only ze one bullet mit your name on it
Tempted to write the whole thing in just german cos of that mit lol
@@are3287 "Feel frei, Englizhe pig-dog. Ze Kaiserreich vil triumph ower ze Alliez." - Some German, probably
@@mivapusa Also one would be van no ?
Since when do German machine guns talk?
Tony Robinson has to be one the most straight-faced actors in the history of acting, and Rowan Atkinson one of the most visually expressive.
