	BBC - Comedy Guide - Blackadder Goes Forth
		The premise: Captain Blackadder is a career soldier who enlisted to escape the rigours of civilian life and who has enjoyed an action-free existence across three continents.
		Blackadder's main concern is how to dissuade Melchett from sending him and his men to certain death.
		More serious in approach than its predecessors, Blackadder Goes Forth still managed to mine many laughs out of the hopeless situation, with the sheer horror of their environment and the delicacy of their position adding to the flness of the comedy.

	OFF THE TELLY: Comedy/"Who'd Notice Another Madman Around Here?"
		Goes Forth ("Major Star" and "Private Plane"), and a tiresome replay of Blackadder the Third's "Amy and Amiability" in the shape of the inferior "General Hospital".
		Blackadder Goes Forth lets them all off the hook by suggesting that they weren't the calculating bastards who cared little for their own men that we might have all thought; no - they were a bunch of loveable eccentrics, blissfully ignorant of any of life's harsh realities.
		Goes Forth (Blackadder thinks up a wheeze to get him out of his current situation, Baldrick has a cunning plan and Hugh Laurie is a stupid puppy dog) yet in fact the true formula (be funny) remained largely elusive; instead Blackadder's comedy had become completely formulaic.

		Blackadder falls in love with his new servant, "Bob", who he thinks is a man, but who is in fact a disguised woman named Kate, who has come to seek her fortune to help her ailing father.
		Blackadder and Melchett are captured by the Spaniards, and end up in the dungeons of a weird interrogator, Prince Ludwig the Indestructible (played by Hugh Laurie), a German supervillain who aims to kill the Queen.

	Scotland on Sunday - Sport - Blackadder goes forth with grace
		Blackadder is in many ways Scottish rugby’s first imported superstar, but while the analogy sends him metaphorically scurrying to shelter behind his natural diffidence, it doesn’t take much guessing at his future impact on Edinburgh rugby.
		Blackadder is happy to admit that his longevity and enthusiasm owe much to the way that Canterbury rugby has developed.
		Blackadder does not need reminding that his enthusiasm for a move to Scotland must be tempered with the thought that there will be no European rugby for him this season, and that his initial diet will be the Welsh/ Scottish League.

	Blackadder: Complete Series 4 (Blackadder Goes Forth) - Compare prices
		The final Blackadder series, which first appeared in 1990, was the most highly evolved of all of the Richard Curtis/Ben Elton-scripted excursions.
		Blackadder Goes Forth stoutly refused to the end to abandon its relish for broad, puerile scatological puns: "Captain Darling will pump you thoroughly in the debriefing room," growls Stephen Fry's General Melchett.
		However, Blackadder's cynicism is laced with genuine despair at the recent madness of World War I. The closing moments of the final episode, as Blackadder and co. finally receive their orders, are handled with sober poignancy and became a frequent fixture in Remembrance Day TV scheduling.

		Set in the trenches of France during the Great War, this series played heavily on hindsight; "It'll all be over by Christmas" was a genuine belief in the months between August and December of 1914.
		In the series, only Captain Blackadder understands that 1918 is perhaps a more likely ending.
		We are treated to generals who would happily sacrifice 50,000 men in order to "move their drinks cabinet a few yards closer to Berlin", and soldiers who - against the evidence of their eyes - believed what they were told.

		BlackAdder variously becomes the Archbishop of Canterbury, the betrothed of the Spanish Infanta, a witch on trial, and finally, however briefly, King of England.
		In the fourth and final series, Blackadder has fallen from a great height, and is an officer in the trenches of World War I. Baldrick is still there, and Percy and the Prince have transformed into fellow field officers, with Stephen Fry playing a bellicose general here as he did Wellington in the third series.
		The main device of this series is the effort by Blackadder to escape the trenches, by variously becoming an artist, a theatre producer, a chef, but to no avail finally, producing a sombre end to the dynasty.
