In Reply to: How many Brits does it take to charge a light brigade? posted by dave c on June 9, 2006 at 21:52:53:
To me, the best part of the whole series. The last episode was quite unexpected . . shocking to the overall tone of the series. Despite their cunning plans they still had to go over the top.Oh yes, Laurie as Prince Regent was outstanding, also.
Ex nihilo, nihil fit . . .
Follow Ups:
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.
