Deliberate mistake: Edmund's "recollection" of seeing Henry Tudor includes the footage that the audience saw at the beginning; however, Edmund wasn't present when this happened, and thus should not be able to recollect it. Moreover, this scene occurred after Henry had escaped and was in safety, altering the details of the Battle of Bosworth Field. Clearly, the footage was added for the audience's benefit, to be able to link the injured Henry to the introductory scene at the start of the episode.
Blackadder (1986)
1 deliberate mistake in season 1
Visible crew/equipment: Back and Forth: When Blackadder first goes into the time machine to get the items from Baldrick, and the door goes up, you can see a crew member pushing the door closed, wearing a red shirt. (00:05:45)
Plan B: Corporal Punishment - S4-E2
Blackadder: I remember Massingbird's most famous case - the Case of the Bloody Knife. A man was found next to a murdered body. He had the knife in his hand, thirteen witnesses had seen him stab the victim and when the police arrived he said 'I'm glad I killed the bastard.' Massingbird not only got him off, he got hom knighted in the New Year's Honours list, and the relatives of the victim had to pay to get the blood washed out of his jacket.
Trivia: BlackAdder was recently voted the second best British comedy, losing to Only Fools and Horses.
Question: Does anyone know what the actors are saying during their 'anti-Macbeth' chant?
