Staffsyeoman Posted 17 March , 2008 Share Posted 17 March , 2008 Darling It's not easy getting transfers, you know. BA Oh, you've tried it yourself, have you? [Darling breaks his pencil.] Darling No, I haven't. BA Trust you to try and skive off to some cushy option. Darling There's nothing cushy about life in the Womens Auxiliary Balloon Corps. (I'd already been beaten to my favourite Darling quote, the diary note..) and..... Nurse Mary: Oh, Edmund, I thought there was something beautiful between us. I thought you ... loved me. Edmund: Nahhh..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Upton Posted 17 March , 2008 Share Posted 17 March , 2008 anyone can be a navigator if the can tell their @rse from their elbow. (went down particularly well at RAF Finningley; home of the RAF Navigator training school!) And for me the best bit with that line is that it's referring to Baldrick, and a little while later when it's all but forgotten... George - Well then, for goodness sake, Sir, why don't we join? Baldrick - Yeah, be better than just sitting around here all day on our elbows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redorchestra Posted 19 March , 2008 Share Posted 19 March , 2008 Melchett: Well, fine body of men you've got out there, Blackadder. Edmund: Yes, sir -- shortly to become fine bodies of men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

domsim Posted 19 March , 2008 Share Posted 19 March , 2008 Corporal Punishment Firing squad Leader: Well, sir, we aim to please. Just a little firing squad joke there, sir! You see, sir, we take pride in the termanatory service we supply. So, is there any particular area you'd like us to go for, hmm?We can aim anywhere. Edmund: Well, in that case, just above my head might be a good spot. Firing squad Leader: You see, a laugh and a smile, and all of a sudden the job doesn't seem quite so bad after all, does it sir? Firing Squad man 2: No, and a lovely roomy forehead. Private Plane (the best ever IMHO) von Richthoven I must now tell you of the full horror of what awaits you. Edmund Ah, you see, Balders. Dress it up in any amount of pompous verbal diarrhoea, and the message is`Squareheads down for the big Boche gang-bang'. von Richthoven As an officer and a gentleman, you will be looking forward to a quick and noble death. Edmund Well, obviously. von Richthoven But, instead, an even worse fate awaits you. Tomorrow, you will be taken back to Germany . . . Edmund Here it comes! von Richthoven . . . to a convent school, outside Heidelberg, where you will spend the rest of the war teaching the young girls home economics.

JustinWilley Posted 19 March , 2008 Share Posted 19 March , 2008 [Melchett's office] Melchett .... Now let's talk about something more jolly, shall we? Look, this is the amount of land we've recaptured since yesterday. [Melchett and George move over to the map table - which is covered in turf ] George Oh, excellent. Melchett Erm, what is the actual scale of this map, Darling? Darling Erm, one-to-one, Sir. Melchett Come again? Darling Er, the map is actually life-size, Sir. It's superbly detailed. Look, look, there's a little worm. Melchett Oh, yes. So the actual amount of land retaken is? [Darling whips out a tape measure amd measures the table.] Darling Excuse me, Sir. Seventeen square feet, Sir. Melchett Excellent. So you see, young Blackadder didn't die horribly in vain after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItemCo16527 Posted 20 March , 2008 Share Posted 20 March , 2008 Anything ever said by Lord Flasheart. Blackadder: "Is this the plan where we continue with total slaughter until everyone is dead except for Field Marshal Haig, Lady Haig, and their tortoise Allen?" Gen. Melchett and Lt. George: "Row, row, row your boat gently down the stream... Belts off, trousers down, isn't life a scream?" "Ask me why I wear no pants" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphjd Posted 20 March , 2008 Share Posted 20 March , 2008 BA: "Hopeless, there just isnt anyone." Bob sings goodbyeee in background. BA "What am I doing BOB "! Bob "Sir" George " Sir what a brilliant idea, Bob can you think of anyone who can be our leading lady? George(ina) " Oh after all he is a General I didnt think I could refuse he might have had me court-martialed" Blackadder " Whereas on the other hand he is going to give you the Victoria Cross when he lifts up your dress on the wedding night and finds himself looking at the last turkey in the shop" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonMonkey Posted 20 March , 2008 Share Posted 20 March , 2008 Melchitt: Never ignore a pooh-pooh Blackadder. I know an officer who did once....he pooh-poohed it. Well, turns out the man who had pooh-poohed him had pooh-poohed a lot of other officers, who pooh-poohed their pooh-poohs. In the end we had to disband the regiment....morale totally detroyed.....by pooh-pooh. Blackadder: Yes, but in this case sir I think the pooh-poohing was entirely coincidental.
