The entire historic third series. Edmund Blackadder (Rowan Atkinson) is butler to George, the Prince Regent (Hugh Laurie)...

Dish and Dishonesty Blackadder takes on the task of saving his master from bankruptcy. Unfortunately, attempts at interfering in the democratic process don't go according to plan.

Ink and Incapability When Prince George is approached by Dr Johnson with a view to patronising his new dictionary, Blackadder is at first unimpressed. But as Johnson's enthusiasm for a novel by a certain Gertrude Perkins becomes clear, the Royal butler's attitude changes.

Nob and Nobility With Francophilia and Scarlet Pimpernalia sweeping England following the French Revolution, Blackadder's distaste for anything Gallic seems somewhat out of place.

Sense and Senility With anarchists lurking everywhere, Blackadder suggests that it might be opportune for his master to make a speech sympathetic to the proletariat. But when they hire two actors to give Prince George some oratorical training, Baldrick discovers a plot to murder the prince.

Amy and Amiability Penury stalks the corridors of the Royal Palace and the only answer is a marriage of convenience for the Prince Regent. Unfortunately, the idea backfires and Blackadder is forced into a highwayman's life.

Dual and Duality After a night of debauchery with the Duke of Wellington's two nieces, the Prince Regent is challenged to a duel by the big-nosed general. During a momentary lapse into semi-coherence Baldrick thinks of a plan.
