Plot Blackadder Goes Forth is set in 1917 on the Western Front in the trenches of World War I. Captain Edmund Blackadder is a professional soldier in the British Army who, until the outbreak of the Great War, has enjoyed a relatively danger-free existence fighting natives who were usually "two feet tall and armed with dried grass". Finding himself trapped in the trenches with another "big push" planned, his concern is to avoid being sent over the top to certain death. The show thus chronicles Blackadder's attempts to escape the trenches through various schemes, most of which fail due to bad fortune, misunderstandings and the general incompetence of his comrades.

Black Adder II: “Bells”
Black Adder II: “Bells” UK TV sitcom: 1985 : dir. : BBC : ? x ? min prod: : scr: Richard Curtis & Ben Elton : dir.ph.: ……….…………………………………………………………………………………………………… Rowan Atkinson; Miranda Richardson; Stephen Fry; Rik Mayall Ref: Pages Sources Stills Words Ω 8 M Copy on VHS Last Viewed 5659 1 0 0 453 No April 2002 In successive seasons this sitcom followed the fortunes of the Blackadder dynasty at different epochs of British history, the second (and best) series set at the court of Elizabeth I (Miranda Richardson). Blackadder himself (Atkinson) is a callous, world-weary courtier with a dungheap of a personal servant, Baldrick, and a witless aristocratic sidekick. In this episode a young woman comes to seek service with him disguised as a boy, rather than turn to prostitution to prevent her aged parent being turned onto the streets. Blackadder finds himself uncomfortably drawn to this page boy, “Bob”, seeks medical help and finally consults an old mystic woman for a cure. Nothing will mitigate his lust for the lad, but his masculinity is salvaged when “Bob” finally comes out to him as female. Ecstatic, he makes wedding plans at once, only to have his bride snatched away at the altar by a hellraising sea captain and ladykiller (Rik Mayall). This might as easily have been written for Frankie Howerd’s bawdy “Up Pompeii” series, except that in the intervening decade it had ceased to be kosher to make lewd fun out of men screwing boys. In the seventies “Monty Python” contained frequent risqué allusions to pederasty without anyone raising a disapproving voice, but by 1985 it had become a topic decidedly off-limits to humour.

Blackadder Goes Forth the Final Push
CARDIFF OPEN AIR THEATRE FESTIVAL: EVERYMAN 20 Sophia Gardens Cathedral Road Cardiff CF11 9SQ AUDITION NOTICE “... if nothing else works, a total pig-headed unwillingness to look facts in the face will see us through.” General A.C.H. Melchett, VC KCB DSO (May 1917) BLACKADDER GOES FORTH THE FINAL PUSH from the BBC TV Series by Richard Curtis & Ben Elton It's 1917 and Edmund Blackadder is now a captain in the British Army at the Western Front, commanding gallant-but-dumb Lieutenant George St. Barleigh and the even dumber Private S. Baldrick. Waiting in fear of the dreaded order to go 'over the top' from the patently insane General Melchett and his twitchy staff officer, Captain Darling, Blackadder devises serial attempts to escape the trenches always with the offer of one of Baldrick's cunning plans. First broadcast on the BBC in 1989, Blackadder Goes Forth is one of the most intelligent as well as among the funniest of British sitcoms. Adapted & Directed by SIMON H WEST Performance Dates: Thursday 18th June to Saturday 27th June 2020 Festival Theatre, Sophia Gardens, Cardiff No performances on Sunday 19th June Technical & Dress Rehearsals: Sunday 14th June to Wednesday 17th June Rehearsal period will be short and intensive, taking place over just one month beginning around May 14th.

John Cleese, Rowan Atkinson, Ricky Gervais and Stephen Fry are featured in their finest shows, and viewers are invited to vote for their favourite on the BBC Entertainment website. John Cleese From Sunday 7 August from 18:00 Kicking off the proceedings, the legendary John Cleese stars in classic 70s sitcom Fawlty Towers. Cleese gives an iconically hysterical performance as Basil Fawlty, the much put-upon hotel manager whose life is plagued by dead guests, hotel inspectors and riff-raff, not to mention hapless waiter Manuel’s peculiar attachment to a certain rodent. Rowan Atkinson From Sunday 14 August at 18:00 The Blackadder series sees the inimitable Rowan Atkinson starring as four different incarnations of Edmund Blackadder. In The Black Adder he is Edmund, Duke of Edinburgh, haunted by his uncle Richard III who he accidentally killed. In Blackadder II, Lord Edmund swaggers back with a big head and a small beard in search of grace and favour from stark raving mad Queen Elizabeth I. In Blackadder the Third, Edmund has been reduced in status and is serving as butler to the Prince Regent (Hugh Laurie), and in Blackadder Goes Forth we find him doing everything he can to avoid a futile death in the trenches of the First World War.

The Mysterious Mr Blackadder
the Queen’s College newsletter supplement The Mysterious Mr Blackadder Compiled by Lucy Hudson Old Members’ Assistant Did he exist? The answer is an emphatic yes. Almost 60 Old Members have written to confirm that there was indeed a Mr Blackadder (known as Joe, Joey or Jack, but chiefly as Joe) working for the College between the 1940s and the 1970s. There was even some outrage at one Old Member’s suggestion that no such person ever existed. At least two Old Members went to the trouble of checking various telephone directories to verify that this unusual surname exists, and Mr N H Hughes (1958) writes that to his recollection Blackadar was the correct spelling—although no one else seems to agree. His Honour Judge Dobkin (1966) points out that ‘to suggest that Joe Blackadder did not exist is absurd. If he had not existed it would have been quite impossible to invent him. Or his name!’ Mr J S Morris (1950) declares ‘Let no-one doubt whether Joe Blackadder really existed. He certainly did and will never be forgotten by those who knew the life at Iffley Road.’ Who was he? Mr Blackadder is first remembered, by those who (1960) remembers ‘our College servants’ as ‘a friendly were here in the early 1940s, as a scout in Drawda but very distinguished band of men’, Mr A Wilkinson Hall and Little Drawda. Others inform us that by (1945) comments that ‘we didn’t seem to know what the mid- to late 1940s (and right up until the 1970s) status the various College servants enjoyed or what he was caretaker of the Iffley Road Annexe, where they specifically were responsible for; we accepted he had living quarters in the basement with his wife them simply as polite but friendly people – the same and daughter.
