I have a cunning plan, let's watch more Blackadder here : czcams.com/play/PLZwyeleffqk5r8Ze_qSF9nKi_9hfjH0qO.html
This videos is awesome
-And how stands that mighty army, the Clan McAdder?
-They're both well
Brilliant. If you hadn't typed it, we would never of known.
@@tdsymes have a tissue bitch
What's the deal with people complaining when someone posts funny dialogue from the clips? Do you complain when someone posts an interesting quote from a movie or song? Or from a play? I love when people share bits they thought where funny. Clever and witty dialogue is to be shared so we can really appreciate it on its own.
@@olliefoxx7165 if you like to write the subtitles of short videos, the youtube comment section is not made for that
@@uncitoyenfrancais What? I just mentioned it's nice when people share their favorite lines from a movie. People can comment on anything they like.
"Farewell Blackadder, you spineless goon!" Has to one of the best lines in the show.
This is really one of Rowan Atkinson's best performances. Every single time I watch it I have to remind myself that Blackadder and MacAdder are played by the same actor
How did they do it in the 80s? How did they get them both on screen at the same time. There is even a brief scene of both of their faces

@@Killerbee4712 Body doubles. 1:24 is easy split screen. Plenty of space along candlestick and cup in background.
@@_Ekaros Genius gaming
As one who is Scottish, let me compliment Rowan on having the best Scottish accent spoken by an Englishman lol. Excellent !
He's from the Durham/Northumberland border, so not that far away to be fair.
If you want to see him be French watch Mr Bean.
that's bollocks, and ya ken !!
alan duncanson sounded like Indian to me, but that's how it is,
But praise one while make fun of the other right ?
Pretty good, except at one point sounding more Geordie than Scottish
"Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more"
I gotta use that line
So that's what that smell is.
Best line ever, use it often 😏
"The pathway of my life is strewn with cowpats from the devils own satanic heard".
I was just programming a day after watching this, and I cracked a smile when I saw the data type for a MAC address was MacAddr.
Stephen Fry as the Duke of Wellington is just 👌🏻
He was more like the Iron Duke than the Iron Duke himself..metaphorically speaking.
Yeah strikingly good performance. Real authority for a small comedic role
"The ancient Stone Bonnet of McAdder" xD
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant dialogue and the way Roman Atkinson delivers for both characters is pure class. Wonderful comedy. Nothing like it today sadly.
I was hoping that they had the scene where Blackadder tells Baldrick his plan before the due. "He hands me the sword, I kick him in the nuts you set fire to the building..." Lines like that don't get any better. :)
In the confusion we claim a draw.
I'm a bit sad that this is the closest we'll ever get to two Blackadders meeting. Back and Forth really missed an opportunity there
Worse still, Rik Mayall did the 90's politician 'Blackadderish' schtick and pre-buggered the plot-arc :-)
There was a scene in that episode where the modern Blackadder and Baldrick saw their ancestors, the ancestors didn't see them though.
@@WizardaronWait really? I don't remember that.
I'd love to see Blackadder meet Mr. Bean
"...bare-breasted and each carrying an eight-pound baby!"
Yes, yes, yes...
One of the finest sentences ever crafted.
I thought the UK uses pounds as currency and stones as a measure of weight.
@@JanetStarChild Stones and pounds are both used for weight - a stone is 14 pounds. The name for the currency came from the Troy system, which was based on the weight of a silver penny - one pennyweight. There were 20 pennyweights to a Troy ounce and 12 Troy ounces to a Troy pound, and a Troy pound of sterling silver was the major unit of currency, hence 'pound sterling', and why the old money system had 240 pennies to a pound
Does he mean while both pregnant with an eight-pound baby, fighting one handed while holding onto an eight-pound baby in the other hand, or carrying the baby on their backs?
Hugh Laurie is as much a master of physical comedy as Rowan. As a slapstick stooge, he's absolutely hilarious.
Agreed
Have you seen his soccer coach video teaching the kids to flop? Classic.
After all these years I can still recite this season, word for word. It really is my favorite season of Blackadder. From 2:33 it's just beyond brilliant.
I rank it up there with A Bit of Fry and Laurie's Nippl-e sketch.
I spoke to a customer the other day named Patsy Stone. I asked, but she'd never heard of AbFab, and what's the point of trying to explain Pats?
Honestly can you imagine a world without British humor? Perhaps that is hell. Everything is the same, except the only humor that is allowed is Jerry Martin, dubbed in French.
Fully agree. The third season is comedy perfection.
01:26 Apparently, the Outer Hebrides weren't worth that much - 14s and 6d from 1800 would be £31.95 in 2017.
He's madder than Mad Jack MacMad, winner of last year's Mr. Madman competition.
Such a good Scottish accent! Rowan Atkinson is just wonderful. Plus he's a lover of free speech. God bless Rowan.
1:37 Blackadder should have said "Yes good idea, but you'll have to kill the real Duke of Wellington first"
‘The old highland manner’.
Good trick photography with both Blackadder and mcadder
"you spineless goon" is excellent...
I'm still laughing at that after 30 odd years.
Im greek and I don't Know what does Spindless goon means.Can someone explain to me.
@@fwteinhtsagarh953 spineless=cowardly, goon=person of low character (as in, no sense of morality and often subservient for personal gain)
@@fwteinhtsagarh953 spineless means cowardly, goon is a disreputable person
14 shillings and sixpence?!
+Olle Rönn About £70 in 2015.
£1.74
How did you work that out?
John King 1 shilling is 12p, 12x14+6
But what is it worth in today's money, now 2016? This Blackadder is set during the Regency period which was 1811-1820. So £1.74 would be worth around £125 now in 2016 adjusting for inflation.
Damn for a 1980 British sitcom the effects with Rowan playing both blackadders is amazing.
1987
Effects? A double has been used since as long as there's been plays/ pantomimes or movies
"I promised Mr Mcnulty I'd shift a particularly difficult bloater for him!" Brilliant 👏
I wonder what the McBaldrick's are like?
McAdder's outfit is brilliant.
When a man soils a Wellington he puts his foot in it
1:08-1:10 Angus is a girl- McAdder
Of course- says Blackadder
And his reaction priceless 🤣
For god sake mcadder your not rob roy hahahahah
‘And how stands that mighty army, the Clan McAdder?’
‘They’re both fine’
“you’re a woman of spirit, I look forward to burying you in the old highland way”
MacAdder's great great great grandson is McGyver the gadget guy
Hahahahaha, I do!
And fortune keeps vomiting on his eiderdown as well, given all the sticky situations that he gets into. In fact he has gotten in to way more sticky situations than even sticky the stick insect.
Fry was pure mental in these shows !!
You mean Stephen Fry?
Legitimately one of the greatest actors of all time
“Ya spineless goon!” I use this sometimes. Of course, few get the reference.
I need to add this to my list of insults.
Did anyone notice that McAdder said Loch Lomond monster, and not Loch Ness?
intentional
I guess it moved.
@Han Lockhart Apparently Nessie is just the most famous out of many scottish Loch monsters.
@Han Lockhart No they are completely unrelated lakes
Sorry to break it to you but this is a work of fiction, and any resemblance to actual clans, monsters etc. is purely coincidental.
Typical superb comedy by the master himself.
Top kipper salesman class
Amazing. That was on TV here just a few weeks ago.
14 and 6, I laughed my ass off !!!
I love Mrs Miggins
I’d pay money to see the bloopers
awesome editing
MR SCROOGE!!! ❤❤❤
Poor Hugh... :(
‘Angus is a girl’ ……….. genius
MUY LINDAS LAS COMEDIAS -SALUDOS DESDE CORDOBA -ARGENTINA
For some reason McAdder is a refreshing style over Atkinson's trademark sarcasm and elitist putdowns.
Very good my fry
I sometimes wonder if this episode inspired the story "ghost of Castle McDuckula" .... That'le be Sixpence!
I really miss the days when BBC was the greatest at making comedy shows.
Now they’re just a joke themselves.
It's very sad
zio propaganda tool now
It's what happens when the average taxpayer believes that the government is throwing away money like used toilet paper.
Many great folks who used to work for the BBC got better offers from the private sector, leaving the network bereft of talent.
Not just the BBC, comedy’s in a shite state these days.
I just enjoyed their accents and staring that woman's teeth.
They're so similar, it's almost as if they were played by the same actor
That's actually Rowan Atkinsons twin brother owen Ratkinson
@@mq9281 never new he had a twin to be fair, bit it makes sense
@@rawlinsonboy he only appears in public when the Scottish highlands need representation in British comedy hes a very interesting man.
@@mq9281 They're not identical though right?
Jesus did the tea cups actually break? XD
He sounds like a Scottish Mr Bean 😂
He is a scottish mr bean.
You’re LATE!! 😂
Did anyone see Three O'Clock High? The main character should have done what Blackadder did here lol
imagine if mrs miggins worked in starbucks or cafe nero or pret a manger lol
I just made this connection and have to share it.
Mcadder would be the perfect character to play rob anybody (the feegle).
Fortune vomits on my idadown brilliant
The lesson here: never trust other people to do your dirty work for you. And NEVER reveal your plans. Not even to your kin. You never know who's a trsitor until it's too late.
Farewell Blackadder, ye spineless goon :D
Ach... ah forgo' abou' tha bailiffs...
"You spineless goon"
Is it possible that macadder distant direct descendants from original evil edmund or macadder may have come from mcangus?
Well, as I recall they were half-brothers, so maybe
Fasted pull I've ever seen.
The most Mike myersiest scene
I didn't know Ethernet was already invented.
What, not that kind of MacAddr(short for Mac Address)?
Oh blast... I always ferget the bailiffs.
Wait.. this episode wasn't in the Ultimate Edition DVD set, was it?? ..I don't remember seeing this episode!
It can't not be. It's the very last one.
+Felix Catora It should be. It's the 6th and last episode of the 3rd series.
Duel and Duality
Charles Kingston and Johnny English beat the shit out of Officer Steady 😂
fortune vomits on my eiderdown
The pathway of my life is strewn with cowpats from the devils own satanic herd.
Limestone bodice. sounds comfortable.
Rowan Atkinson playing his own cousin.
You have a keen eye.
@@JonSmith-cx7gr Clever how they did that.
You're late!!!
Never to be repeated I’m afraid.
Limestone bodice
everything in this video would make excellent 2020 memes
Wait a second, if the duke killed the prince wouldn’t the bailiffs arrest him as well? Or can he buy his way out of it because of his title?
I've often wondered this as well. Duels, as a concept, were pretty fucked up in general, though.
Wellington was popular with the people, whereas the royal family was not. The real Wellington might just have gotten away with it, given sufficient dueling pretense. MacAdder, of course, lacks that popularity nd so a Scot killing the king wouldn't be nearly as accepted.
@@roguishpaladin Unless of course he's dressed up as Wellington - though I'm guessing the bailiffs would be able to tell the difference between the two Wellingtons
Jamie and Angus. I wonder if outlander is inspired by this
as one who is english; get 'ae ya prack.
I have a question is Rowan in a double role or is that redhaired guy a double???
+mjfreaklove Both I think.
Yeah, whenever the face is in shot it's Rowan, otherwise it's a body double.
0:54 - this is an example of the body double for Rowan here. However when you see them both together in shot, it is Rowan playing both parts, but edited together to make it look like they are two people. Must have taken a good amount of time, as they would have had to stop/start recording to get this scene done.
@@johnking5174 ...or they just ran the scene twice and recorded it through both times. The doubles (or at least the Blackadder double) would need to speak the lines so that the vocals matched up anyways.
@@roguishpaladin No they had a body double to give Rowan the perfect eye line, with the double's face not seen. Common practice back then.
Limestone bodice, that does not sound very comfortable. What is he saying? "Fortune vomits on my............... once more?
Krister Andersson Eiderdown.
evrbody Thanks, next question what is eiderdown, we have something that sounds similar ejderdun= feathers from a bird (ejder) that are filling in duvets and pillows.
Actually that's what it is.
Krister Andersson an eiderdown is a duvet filled with felt
It's filled with down from eider ducks
This is where the Mr. Bean character came from I guess.
14 shillings and sixpence !
The finest of English generals was Irish! " Nelson
"Angus is a girl."
1987 = funny.
2020 = OK.
Did blackadder play both rolls
Rowan indeed played both roles
No, he has an identical, less talented Scottish twin sister.
Of course he did, that was part of the humour.
@@jasonkingshott2971 How did they film it, the coordination between takes must be frame perfect
No sound
Oh, that kick was clearly over acted, I mean real.
Oh dear!
*He looks like the same person.*
No shit
I might not be from the uk but more than scottish Rowan sounded more like indian
Anyone knows how much is 14 Shillings and sixpence in American dollars?
Accounting for inflation about 173 dollars.
its now about 80 cents! there were 20 shillings in a British Pound - and the Pound is now worth about a dollar twenty !
I love the pom poms
Funny how the quality of free and fun people have left the BBC so far behind.......
Angus is a girl.
what's 14/6 in new money?
@Strani Plaćenik £30 for the Outer Hebridies is a bargain
...WAIT! ... WHAT??... since WHEN does he have a Scottish cousin McAdder??? :D ...oouh, freaking Jeesus!...
The 15th century Blackadder (the one from the first series) had a Scottish half-brother (if memory serves, he was also called McAdder), so there is a Scottish connection going back some way. Funnily enough, Blackadder is actually a genuine surname from Northumbria, so in the borderlands between England and Scotland.
@@TranscendentLion That I did not know! :) Thanks for the info!
@@TranscendentLion It's not possible since prince Edmund was the one who was the first named Blackadder (until the latest timetravelling movie changed the lore) there was one scottish guy who was called McAngus in the first series and he was only a vassal of king Richard
@@drevenypribor6144 He was the first Blackadder, but he also didn't have any legitimate issue (unless you really want to conceive of the idea that he had a child with his...ahem..._very_ young wife). So, the first Blackadder must have bastards who took on the surname Blackadder, which makes some sense given that Blackadder isn't Lord Edmund's surname anyways.
The actual place blackadder is in Scotland it's between the twin rivers of Whiteadder and Blackadder...
I just realised in this scene that Miggins is actually very pretty. Until her mouth opens...
