BlackadderSpecials

TV-PG

Rowan Atkinson geeft een satirische kijk op de Britse geschiedenis door de eeuwen heen door in de huid te kruipen van verschillende geslachten van de familie Blackadder. Door de eeuwen heen hebben talentvolle en dappere mannen bijgedragen aan de eervolle en nobele historie van Engeland. De familie dynastie Blackadder behoorde daar zeker niet toe.

Back And Forth (with Documentary)
A29
Back And Forth (with Documentary)It's New Year's Eve 1999, and Blackadder makes a bold claim to his contemporaries. He claims Baldrick has built a time machine with which Blackadder will get historical evidence. What no one knows is that Baldrick really has invented a time machine, with one slight flaw. That sends Blackadder and Baldrick on a millennium's worth of adventure. Blackadder: Back & Forth was originally shown in the Millennium Dome in 2000, followed by a screening on Sky One in the same year (and later on BBC1). It is set on the turn of the millennium, and features Lord Blackadder placing a bet with his friends – modern versions of Queenie (Miranda Richardson), Melchett (Stephen Fry), George (Hugh Laurie) and Darling (Tim McInnerny) – that he has built a working time machine. The film includes cameo appearances from Kate Moss and Colin Firth.
