Black Adder II Reviews
Great comedy shame about the DVD
After the Painfuly unfunny first series first series we se Edmund transform from a wimp to a cad and it's all thanks to Ben Elton and an amazing Performance from Rowan Atkinson. With Blackadder 2 they set the standard for series 3 and 4, every episode is pure comedy genius.
Episode list:
Bells: When Edmund hires a new man servent named Bob (Who's realy a girl) Blackadder find himself falling for her charms and decides to marry her. Everything is going well until Lord Flashhart turns up and charms the pants of her.
Head: When Queenis gives Edmund the job of Lord High Executioner he decides the best way to get the rest of the week off would be to chop a few heads of a few days early. Not a good idea when the Queen decides to let one of the prisoners off.
Patato: Edmund is not happy when Sir Wallter Raleigh returns from his voyage smelling of fish and decides to go on a voyage of his own on a ship with no crew and a captain who's leggless.
Money: When Blackadder gets into debt with the Black Monks the Baby Eating Bishop of Barthon Wells turns up and threatens
Edmund with a violent death unless he pays up.
Beer: When Blackadder is challenged to a drinking contest at the same time his overly religious mad aunt and uncle, Lord and Lady Whiteadder come around he must find away to keep both events from clashing. Very funny.
Chains: When the evil Prince Ludwig kidnaps Melchett and Edmund the Queen must decide which one of her boy's she wants to pay the ransom for. Unfortunatly for the two of them she decides to spend the money on a party instead.
Sadly there are no extras at all on this DVD which is a great shame. Let's hope the BBC pull thier fingers out and do special editions of these comedy classics. Still worth buying for the episodes alone however.
Incontinence pants required.
Set in Elizatbeth I's time, Black Adder is a courtier trying to scheme his way to the crown. Miranda Richardson is hilarious as the fickle queen and Rik Mayall puts in a scene stealing over the top performance as Lord Flash Heart in one of the episodes.
This is probably the best season of this very funny series, don't watch with a full bladder!
