	Captain Blackadder - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Captain Edmund Blackadder (1871—1917 assumed, MIA) was the main character in the fourth and final series of the popular BBC sitcom Blackadder.
		Blackadder's attempts to escape are usually opposed by General Melchett, who does not seem to realise the futility of sending men to their certain deaths, and Captain Darling, who does.
		Captain Blackadder claims to have joined the army in 1888, when "back in those days, if you saw a man in a skirt, you shot him and nicked his country".

	Blackadder - Uncyclopedia
		The Blackadders can be traced back to an Anglo-Saxon royal line of kings starting with Edmund I who reigned from 939-946, ending when he was horribly murdered by a thief in a brawl at a party.
		Lord Blackadder was in service to Elizabeth I, and most of his life was spent chasing her ideals and dreams.
		It is recorded at this point that the Blackadder family had somehow lost all its lands and titles, but how this happened is not recorded, but is speculated to have been due to accruing major gambling debts.

		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.
		In the end, the creative team stuck to their guns and, instead of having Blackadder succeed in his quest, had him and his men forced to join the advance and fulfil their fears by going 'over the top' to their deaths.

		It all seems very sad, particularly as the current series, in which Blackadder is doing everything in his power to get out of the trenches, is the most assured of the lot.
		In Blackadders case, the block has usually been the one you put your head on if a truly lunatic despot decides you have forgotten your place.
		The heads of the medieval and Elizabethan Blackadders courtiers were never more than moments from the blade, and if the current Captain Blackadder sticks his head above the parapet as regularly as the mad general thinks he should, he'll get it shot off.

	Archive 2003 - The Real Captain Blackadder
		Blackadder’s career is interesting because it can form the starting point for an examination of several related questions about British army officers in the late nineteenth and first half of the twentieth centuries.
		Edmund Blackadder once said that he had been educated in the school of hard knocks and the University of life.
		The entry costs to join any profession could be high and one reason why so many sons of army officers followed in their father’s footsteps was that the War Office gave serving or retired officers a large reduction on the fees they charged to educate their sons at the cadet colleges.

		Mostly, though, Blackadder's Christmas Carol is a welcome dose of cynicism in a season when all those visions of sugarplums and replays of It's a Wonderful Life can tend to send one into diabetic shock.

		BlackAdder Goes Forth could have become another of those comedies except for one thing - the time period it was set in.
		During the last episode, Goodbyeee, Blackadder's suspenders have a prominent red line of colour bleed throughout the episode.
		I thought I saw some occasional cross colouration, but I couldn't nail them down with any degree of accuracy, probably due to the oversaturation of red which made all the other colours look washed-out, except for the browns and sepias which didn't look totally natural as a result.
