Details

Blackadder Goes Forth is the fourth and final series in the television sitcom written by Richard Curtis and Ben Elton, and was first produced by the BBC in 1989. The show is set during The Great War of 1914-1918, and follows Captain Blackadder, Baldrick and George in their doomed attempts to escape from the trenches whilst under the misguided command of General Melchett. Join the Seagull Rep as the unlucky Blackadder launches several unsuccessful attempts to avoid certain death in the trenches of World War 1. Hampered in his efforts by his bumbling companions, Baldrick and George, we see him employed as a war artist, facing a firing squad for shooting General Melchett's beloved pigeon, Speckled Jim, and organising a cabaret tour fit for the West End. Can Baldrick's Charlie Chaplin impersonation save them? "We're in the stickiest situation since Sticky the stick insect got stuck on a sticky bun."
