Blackadder II - Bells on now. The one with Flashheart and Bob.

3 for me.

4 is moving and poignant - but contains too many WW1 clichés for my liking.
I agree with this statement. I think the 4th series is brilliant, but marred slightly (in my view) because I don't think Ben Elton knows as much as he likes to think he does about the First War, hence all the clichés

'Am I pleased to see you or....'
One of the best lines in any comedy, I remember quoting when it was first shown (and not really knowing what it meant. )

I loved Blackadder as a child. Series 2 probably is my favourite.

With flashheart of course ...

Hey, any bird who wants to chain herself to my railings and suffer a jet movement gets my vote!

For me, 4-2-3-1. Never particularly enjoyed the original series. But any series with Rik Mayall in is alright by me.
