I can't believe the number of advertisements that you have breaking into this compilation!
@EthnoEuropean's CountriesAreBeingInvaded The show was videotaped in 1987 in analogue 625 line PAL for broadcast to audiences in the UK with glass tube TV sets rarely bigger than 24 inches. We had only four channels then, all in glorious surround mono. So no, there won't be an HD version.

Hello my Friends & Fans👌🏼🌹 Many greats for you all ‼️👌🏼💝
Contrafibularities. "Noun. contrafibularities pl (plural only) (humorous, rare) False congratulations, sounding congratulatory while actually pulling someone's leg." The writing is top notch.
It literally can be translated as a kick in the shin. 'Contra' = against, 'fibula' = shin bone. Against the shin.
@@Ealsante Decent! Turns out the word was made for the scene, I didn't go that deep into it, so it's pretty cool you did.
What my teacher commented when I turned in my essay using this word. "Please use words that don't require me to constantly look through the dictionary" I did OK on the paper anyhow.
Wow didn't know that word existed but thank you
@@xed_i2070 It does not, made up for the show, that's the point...
As a german, I have adapted shouting "Sausage Time" whenever things are about to get frisky.
Dont you mean "Wurstzeit!!"
Why did my head go to Mario saying 'oh yeah, sausage time'.
That must really dampen things! 😂
@@EmilyBee. on the contrary, it lightens things up :D
Has anyone thought you were getting hungry at just the wrong time?
My alltime favorite joke in the Blackadder series: „Dr. Johnson has finished his book. Apparently it took him 10 years.“ „We’ll, I‘m a slow reader myself.“
Me too, it just cracked me up now when I read you comments :-)
"We are in a sticky situation Baldrick. In fact it's stickier than Sticky the stick insect stuck in a sticky bun"
Dr House, Mr Bean and Hagrid all in the same room! Love that scene
Thank you! I recognized him, but couldn't place him! What a relief for my brain. 😄
Don't forget Rita Skitter out the window And in the series Pitt the younger to pirate of the Caribbean Elizabeth s first fiance.
Should be said that Laurie played dumb to smart, Atkinson from smart to dumb, and Hagrid smart and boring to smart and important.
When I see Mr Bean I say hey its Blackadder. The only Mr Bean I seem to like are the few that he speaks in like "Fatal Beatings".
Don't forget Nigel planer AKA Neil from the young ones as Lord Smedley/the scarlet pimpernel.
"socks are like sex - tons of it around but I never seem to get any"
🍷😆😆
I know the feeling
Hahaha.. who writes these lines??!
Stephen Fry's portrayal of Wellesley cracks me up every time. _"Swords!? ...only girls fight with swords these days! We duel with cannon!"_
Fry was absolutely incredible playing this role. Had me in stitches.
Somehow his ribs weren't crushed in
Stephen Fry is the best
"Now that I know the truth I am disposed to beat you to death! TEEEAAA!!"
CHINA!!! Followed by boot gets me every time! 🤣🤣🤣
Blackadder is one of those rare comedy shows that actually got better with each series. It started well and just got better. The final episode of Blackadder Goes Forth was both funny and poignant. Totally brilliant.
And would get cancelled during the pilot's release
Perfectly put!
Sorry but everyone on earth considers the World War One episodes a let down, including you.
@@reginaldforthright805 i wouldn’t Call them a letdown - just not as compelling setting as season 1-3 we’re, why do you think that

@@PaulLemars01 - Can't forget the Romans??!!! - what did they ever do for us?
You gotta love the way Stephen just leans into the role "TEEEAAAAA!"
Insanely well written and I can't imagine how Rowan Atkinson could memorize those lines. Blackadder is still my favorite.
Every line is crafted like poetry. When Americans wonder why British people have such a wide vocabulary, it''s from growing up with shows like this.
And I'm STILL learning stuff, I didn't know a rotten burrow was actually a thing.
@@zootsoot2006 Helped me with my english too (second language).
Absolutely agree. Extraordinary that Rowan Atkinson never made an error, ever in his delivery of lines. When Blackadder bloopers was assembled, they couldn't find anything on him. He was perfection all the way. Most admirable.
@@strikeforcealpha9343 or a rubber button ;)
-you killed him? -He's dead as that squirrel! -which squirrel?! *BANG!* -THAT SQUIRREL!
🤣👍🏻
I watched that scene in a stage adaption of Blackadder, and both sound effects were reversed 😅
"As we rehearsed-- poetry first, sausage later"
Just like real life!
Hugh Laurie and Rowan Atkitson comedy gold
"But im in agony" "Well thats love for you"😂😂
Whenever someone asks me if I want a cup of tea I always answer "Yes, immediately". I love the Wellington character!
Then proceed to bring coffee
That made me laugh out loud. Brilliant.
Me too
The best Blackadder in my opinion, easily the most cunning!
Thank you, Baldrick!
Captain Blackadder is also quite good.
3 and 4 are the best imo
most cunning indeed
@@GertrudePerkins Oh, you're still knocking about. How are things? Is Great Boo up?
This is easily my favourite Blackadder. Not only for the period but also for just how sadistic and cynical Blackadder is in this series.
Sardonic a bit hehe
I love it because Blackadder wins! He's a bastard but he wins at the end.

I scrolled down just to recover from that very moment. "Gnuhm"
Chris Barrie is such a legend. My brother and I are still quoting his character 25 years after first seeing him. "We hate you Engleesh, with your boring trousers and your shiny toilet paper" is one of the best lines ever uttered in any comedy series
2:49 "these are not the times of Alfred the Great, you can't just lob someones head off and blame it on the Vikings" ahh.... i miss those times too...
My favourite quote of all times: "I got a plan so cunning you can put a tail on it and call it a weasel."
"I want a real man. A man who can sew on a button. A man who knows where the towels are kept!" 😀

"Baldrick, you wouldn't recognise a subtle plan if it painted itself purple, danced naked on top of a harpsichord, singing subtle plans are here again" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
“We hate Prince George we hate prince George” always gets me 🤣
@@hoohoo431 Not a cat.
Not funny in the slightest.
@@zapkvr subjective as to how much of a sense of humour you possess, if any
Chris Barrie in Blackadder, highly underrated. 'Revolutionary pig? Ha! Aristocratic warthog!'
"He's dead as that squirrel!" "... Which squirrel?" BANG! - *Squirrel squeaks and drops* Gets me every time.
I want a real man.... Then she tries to seduce Mr Bean
This plan is so cunning you can put a tail on it and call it a weasel!
Hugh Laurie is so dry and so funny! He's matched brilliantly by Rowan Atkinson; what a treat!😂🤣
Life lesson from Blackadder: poetry first, sausage later.
Damn right
0:07, when Mr. Bean, Dr. House, and Hagrid were all in the same room together
He looks more like Johnny English

👍Loved him in Bertie Wooster!
Back when Hugh Laurie was interesting
I just love how melodic Atkinson's delivery is in the series. Especially 3 and 4.
"..You're not...you're German!" 🤣
George: "After all, were BRITISH aren't we?" Blackadder: "You're not. You're German." Still one of my favorite little interactions....
I like the Blackadder 4 "'I'm as English as Queen Victoria" interrogation too...
I'm anaspeptic, phrasmotic, even compunctuous to have caused you such pericombobulation.
It's so well written...the end of this episode though 😂
Common enough words..down our way. Sounds saucy to me. Especially that thing about the Norman tongue. Woof! Woof!

"C - Big blue wobbly thing that mermaids live in. 'C'" I remember that joke from the 90s, when Blackadder was on TV in Australia. I saw that episode only once and forgot most of the jokes from most of the episodes, yet I've never forgotten that one. It's gotta be one of my favourites!!
My favourite Blackadder time period.And Hugh Laurie was a brilliant prince george.
Love how Baldrick gives Blackadder a little nudge when the Shadow says 'You, the one that looks like a pig."
Baldrick presented a documentary on Discovery Channel. I dont remember the name.
@@andrada1270 He was the Time Team presenter for years - 3 day archeology missions around Britain
Nice James Mason impersonation.
I cleared my dvd cabinet several times, but Blackadder never left it's spot. This is the reason why.
Alphabetising will do that to you
Blackadder doesn´t get enough credit these days ... it was absolutely brilliant
Easily my favourite series of Blackadder. Outstanding writing, excellent chemistry between the actors, brilliant energy and wonderful pacing.
Agreed!! This part made me laugh; “I’m sorry about that sir, but one has to keep up the pretence.” “Oh, no! I quite understand you, carry on the good work.” “Very well, sir” *Decks him* 🤣 I never saw this before but I think I will enjoy it!
The episode with the actors is easily the funniest in the entire series. Macbeth! MACBETH! MACBETH!!!
"But I'm in agony " "that's love for you "
Hugh showing what a DAMN fine actor he is x
Damn fine comic actor!
Its always a pleasure to watch Sir Atkinson do what he does better than anyone on the planet ! We need another Johnny English movie .
Tis was a brilliant series the comedy will never age, Rowan Atkinson was a true comedic genius.
Agree, this is whole series is a gem of pure comedy.
He’s still alive - if the injections didn’t get him.

Hagrid will be missed. God speed Robbie. Glad I met you once , and what a wonderful man you were. a true gentleman.
Coltrane was amazing. He was brilliant in Cracker.
When we were kids we used to sneak into the National Theatre when they were rehearsing and run around corridors shouting ""Macbeth Macbeth "
Used to watch this show all the time when I was a child. It basically taught me english.
How old were you and did you get the humor?
Were you born in Newcastle ?
I’ve been watching this from the first day it came out, years ago..now still viewing on you tube even though I have them all on dvd.
Did you learn it interfrastically?
@@0w784g yep🙄😂👍
Blackadder is the only series me, my dad and my brothers use the quotes in day to day life. When my dad pops round and I ask him if he wants tea he always shouts at me TEEEEEAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!! 😂😂🤣🤣
But the amount of violence they delivered to Hugh in Duke of Wellington episode was incredible. Also he was so good taking it. :D
This is my favorite "Blackadder" series, maybe because Blackadder actually wins for once.
Technically, Black Adder died in this one too because he switched role with the Prince, he just assumed his identity in the end so it's a happy ending for him.
@@blahblahuser453 Technically, "Blackadder" was dead, but Edmund Blackadder, the man and now monarch, actually came out on top.
The fact that he gets away with it makes him more of a baddie, and therefore, more interesting.
originaly Blackadder goes Forth was supposed to have ended with Blackadder faking his death, walking out of the now empty battlefield.

Get well soon.

Yeah, I'm sure my last flu with pneumonia was way worse. So cry me a river! I was having very high fever, I was suffocating in my sleep and threw up all the food, couldn't keep any in my stomach. And that was three years ago. I'm pretty sure either covid19 exists in Eastern Europe since many years or flu is regularly worse.
“But I’m in agony!” “Well that’s love for you.” Well said...❤️
"not a cat" is what makes him an absolute genius. Because if you think about it, a dog is a pet who is not a cat. That is what makes that show so good, 90% of what the idiot says is worth teaching in school.
If only 90% of the kids could actually learn that......
Cunning, adjective: What Baldrick’s plans never are.
Except that one brilliant one...
Legendary stuff. One of the greatest comedies ever without doubt. 👏🏽
Only in the english-speaking world, mind
Jokes are hard to translate when puns are so heavy. Cultures vary too, absurdity is less common in the USA outside of cartoons, UK loved as a major comdey style for years so did oz.
Tim Mcinnerny is absolutely brilliant in this...I had no idea at all it was him, until the reveal right at the end. Stunning acting.
Laurie and Atkinson, one of the great comedy duo's
...and Robinson!
Stephen Fry will always be Hughs best comedy partner though
Atkinson, Robinson, Laurie, Fry =quadruple ingenuity and talent 👏🙇♀️💜
Duo'ses
I absolutely adore Stephen Fry with curled hair. Rowan Atkinson as well looks mighty fetching in 18th century costume.
you never get either lol
oh, it's Stephen Fry @ 14:00 in red, (because of my prosopagnosia, i thought it was jeremy Clarkson when he was young...)
RIP Robbie. You were great.
I grew up on the Black Adder!!! I was in high school and I was just learning world history, then I would come home and watch this. It was always brilliant and it's still so funny!!! The sad thing is not many people around me shared the same sense of humor, they didn't get it. I was a geek/nerd back then and I had my own laughs lol only me and closest friends who studied could understand. I grew up in Croatia, ex Yugoslavia at the time the show was on the TV I always loved later to be the most popular British actors ever. I didn't like Mr Bean though, Black Adder is how I want to remember Rowan Atkinson 😄

It was when in the Navy, surrounded by fellow Data Processing Technicians (Navy's geeks). It was the only group I belonged to where EVERYONE loved Monty Python. Antidisestablishmentarianism
Tom McInnerny and Chris Barry are just such a delight to watch.

All Blackadder seasons were amazing , together with Allo allo and only fools and horsers are best British sitcom of the 80s.
Switching accents was bloody genius. Especially watching 5 or 6 people all faking accents, speaking English, needing translators and getting lied to.
Allo allo??? Awful shyte!
@@AngelWingzzz Allo allo was fine
@@katarinakrnjevic8183It was hilarious. Very popular when I grew up in Norway😊
"After the temper comes, the um...forgetfulness?" 😆😂😂
Saying "Macbeth" over and over to piss off the actors 🤣🤣🤣
If you can find one serious flaw in the writing, acting, casting, directing, editing or costuming, let me know. An endless pleasure to watch. Still one of the best things on TV, ever, in any country -- period.
"You're not! You're German" HAHAHAHA

Hugh Laurie is hilarious ! And to think he became Dr House once he got to the States !
The third series was the best of the lot. Pure brilliance.
Blackadder III was always my favorite season. They were really in their prime here.
Loved it for decades ❤
Rowan Atkinson is truly one of Great Britain's national treasures.
Is he, really? I saw his live show in 86. Bill Bailey is a LOT more talented. And funny. Atkinson has never been on QI either. Lazy bastard.
Arnold Rimmer, Mr. Bean, and Captain Darling together in one room. If Chris hadn't been cast in Red Dwarf, he would have been great in Blackadder Goes Fourth.

Blackadder is the greatest comedy series ever made. Every scene is endlessly hilarious. Miss the 80s.
Personally I'll go for Only Fools and Horses, then Blackadder 3,2 then 4 and in 3rd place Porridge.
My favourite of the Blackadder series...So many brilliant, quotable lines but this compilation was missing probably my favourite piece, with Blackadder and Baldrick in the kitchen discussing potential wives for George. As a few others have said, you quote them now and get blank looks, but they’re still great lines!
Poor Hugh. Gets constantly hit by Stephen in "A Bit of Fry and Laurie" and in "Blackadder" -- where Rowan joins in on hitting Hugh. (Yes, I know it's stage fighting, but occasionally one does get an accidental real hit. With rehearsal and multiple takes...) 😂
Fry did hit him for real by accident once in Fry & Laurie, they kept that take and you can see his face wobbling when played in slow motion 😂👍
Dog: Not a cat. Is actually not far off Samuel Johnston's definitions in the first draft of his dictionary. His definition for sock was Something that goes between a foot and a shoe.
