Unlike many viewers, I enjoyed this series much more than the other parts of the series (although just a bit more than Blackadder Goes Forth). It has absolutely brilliant, memorable jokes, exciting plots, brilliant characters and in this you really come to know all of the characters. I prefer this to the first part of Blackadder because that part is too silly, I prefer this part to the second part because that has the annoying queen and nurse in it and I am afraid, "Blackadder Goes Forth", that I just prefer this series to you by a little fraction of a rating, because I prefer Baldrick in this one. I also very much like Blackadder, I prefer him as a butler rather than a prince or servant. Baldrick is as hilarious as ever - but better! Hugh Laurie as the prince is amazingly entertaining, I prefer him as a companion to Percy.
There, I have stated why I like this, now for the incredible cast:
The cynical, intelligent Blackadder: Rowan Atkinson. The brainless, gorgeous Baldrick: Tony Robinson. The (also) brainless, lazy George, Prince of Wales: Hugh Laurie. The mad Mrs. Higgins: Helen Atkinson-Wood.
I recommend this to anyone who has enjoyed the previous Blackadder series but desires a slightly different cast, to people who just enjoy funny historical British TV programmes and for people who like comedy series with gripping plots that are NOT farce. Enjoy! :-)
