Customer Reviews

Excruciatingly amusing tape enjoyed by the whole family.
Like all good humor base on an alternative version of the truth. Who can forget Baldricks famous "War Poems" and his exceptionally good coffee....hmm delicious !!!

I've got to admire your balls ... maybe later
The whole series is captured here on three CD's, two episodes per CD each split into around 8 seperate tracks.

Its superb stuff and laugh out loud funny. I was worried before buying about whether this would be a good enough substitute for the brilliant TV series but you needn't worry. It works really well. Since you are robbed of your eyes (so to speak) then you listen that much harder to the dialogue and I felt that I picked up more of the gems served up by the writers.

All the original cast are here. I wasn't bothered that the audience laughter is captured on the CD's - I was usually laughing over the top of them anyway.

Recommended as a way of killing those commuting hours or cheering yourself up or whatever. This was my favourite of the Blackadder series but the set is so good, I'm looking at getting all the others.

better than baldrick's plum duff....
This comedy would sound good in chinesse, portugesse, Latin, farted, burped or even french (well not's go that far) Luckily it's in our mother tounge (how we get it out of her is another matter) and it is as hilarious as a thingy shaped turnip. As Charlie chaplin said to King George V about the rumours of the incredible belching German....you've gotta hear it to beleive it.
