The Black Adder: 3: The Archbishop

BBC One
on BBC One London

by Richard Curtis and Rowan Atkinson
Another loathsome tale of history's premier video nasty.
Rowan Atkinson is The Black Adder, also starring Brian Blessed as his lovably murderous father.

After two years of Good King Richard's reign, the landscape is littered with dead Archbishops of Canterbury. Edmund's cunning plan is to get his deadliest rival appointed to the vacancy.
"A welcome return to pre-Victorian values" (J. Goebbels)
