        Blackadder and Shakespeare
        Blackadder: The Cavalier Years
        Blackadder's Christmas Carol
        by Richard Curtis and Ben Elton
        Starring Rowan Atkinson as Ebenezer Blackadder
        with Tony Robinson as Baldrick

        Dickens' classic tale of kindness, truth and virtue completely mucked up and ruined by having a member of the Blackadder family involved.  Also Baldrick, of course, the man you can rely on to turn a Christmas dinner into a dog's dinner, as long as the dog isn't particularly fussy.
        Stuffed with deeply horrid people (many of whom are gigantically fat) and groaning with cartloads of seasonal bottom jokes, it manages to squeeze in not only a Victorian Black Adder but also his famous Elizabethan, Regency and Space Age relatives into a huge pie of entertainment that will satisfy all but the most discriminating viewers.

        Opening Song:
        He's kind and generous to the sick
        He'd never spread a nasty rumor
        He never gets on People's wick
        And doesn't laugh at toilet humor
        Blackadder, Blackadder
        He's sickeningly good
        Blackadder, Blackadder
        As nice as Christmas pudd
