Lord of Adders Black: A Blackadder Podcast

Episode 26: “My Fluffy Bunny Act”

Welcome to the Lord of Adders Black fan podcast, where Michael and Ian explore the universe of cult sitcom Blackadder while diving off at the occasional gleeful tangent.

Our special guest in this episode is fellow Blackadder enthusiast Dr Kel Pero, who casts an expert eye on the differences between the language used in the various series of Blackadder and reflects on why it is always such a treat for word nerds. And why you should never let historical accuracy get in the way of a good joke.

This time around, our Scene Stealer is Miranda Richardson as the enigmatic Nurse Mary in the General Hospital episode of Blackadder Goes Forth. Is she the spy? Is she innocent? Can she sing I May Be A Tiny Chimney Sweep But I’ve Got An Enormous Brush? Tune in and find out … that we don’t really know either.
