Where to Watch Blackadder's Christmas Carol
- Charles LondonFebruary 15, 2025My opinion of the four-season history jumping Blackadder series is somewhat mixed. I'm a big fan of Blackadder II (the Elizabethan period) and Blackadder Goes Forth (the Great War), but less so of the other two. This Christmas special falls into the latter category, good entertainment but not as sharp as some other Blackadder offerings.
