Blackadder II - Complete DVD

England 1558-1603. The filthy genes of the Blackadder dynasty bubble back to the surface of the melting pot of history as Lord Edmund, arrogant peer-about-town, swaggers back with a big head and small beard in search of grace and favour from stark raving mad Queen Bess. Accompanied by a small rabble of be-ruffed riff-raff - bottom-breath Baldrick and pea-brained Percy - the serpentine Lord Blackadder lower the whole tone of England's Golden Age. Bells With Rik Mayall as Lord Flashheart. Served by a dungball in a dress and accompanied by a bird-brained dimwit he can't shake off, Edmund is reasonably normal - until he meets Bob...
Head Edmund, newly appointed Minister in Charge of Religious Gennocide and Lord High Executioner, finds himself in a spot of bother when he completely ruins Lord Farrow's weekend by cutting off his head.
Potato With Tom Baker as Captain Redbeard. Blackadder sets off unwillingly to seek out new potatoes and to boldly go where Sir Rather-a-Wally Raleigh has already gone before¿
Money With Ronald Lacey as the Bishop. Trouble is in store for Edmund when the baby-eating Bishop of Bath and Wells drops by unexpectedly.
Beer With Miriam Margolyes as Lady Whiteadder. An embarrassing incident with a turnip, an ostrich feather and a fanatically puritan aunt lead to a right royal to-do.
Chains With Hugh Laurie as Ludwig. Edmund is slightly inconvenienced when a fat-headed German chamberpot boxes him up in a chestful of iron spikes and leaves him to play chardes with a crazed Spanish interrogator.
