I think this is one of the GREAT series of British comedy, made all the funnier by its biting vision of the British class system.
Immediately before they go over the top in the final episode, where Blackadder, having failed in all his attempts to avoid certain death, comments something to the effect of "who would notice another lunatic out here?" is a moment of great poignancy, and the fading of the scene to the silent ending says more than words.
