"BOUND" LITERALLY XD

2:24

What Macbeth ? 🤣

My family has a similar motto “When the going gets tough, the smart ditch it for the nearest boat and scram to the Canadian colonies and hide out as farmers”

@Mike Brailsford it's PUCK will make amends

@Mike Brailsford its "ahhh! hot potato of his drawers, pluck to make amends (*plucks noses*)"

Gee, I hope no one else here mentions Macbeth or you'd have to write all of that again

Macbeth

Lash AAGH! Hot potato off his drawers! Pluck to make amends!!!!

Mores the pity

Q

Macbeth!! 😂

Whom they insulted* 😛

I've got only one thing to say to you. Macbeth.

Honestly, I think (british) english is the only language - at least to me - where you can line up single words with no connection at all and it's just a delight to read or hear them. Bananas. Pie. Flabberghasted. Tumbling. Fiddle.

Oblong oscillating ocelot.

@@killerpussy84 Plop. Blunder-prone. Careening. Splat. Cement-head. Flamingo. Orangutan. Chimpanzee. Bartholomew. Porcupine. Buffoon. Pantyhose. Slurry. Catastrophe. Suspicious. Prancing. Wallow. Postponement. Bumpkin.

That's huge in Atkinson's comedy.

....... Bob.

Well you can always try! Good luck! See you at the Job Centre haha

Getting an extra 1000 per month for asking to.

Of course. You must roar. All great RU-vid commenters roar. Example: “whoooaaaaaaa what a fantastic video!”

Hot bananas?

Casa face, by jove you're right.

Hugh Paddick's accent is honestly really entertaining in itself. It's so exaggerated and 'thespian'.

The guest stars always demand praise as they are all never less than brilliant. Only a fool would fail to see the talent of these two stalwarts of British comedy. Paddick's perfect RP, redolent of RADA (yet to built in the Georgian era), is superb.

@@Euroviking86 so that lot didn't understand the difference between reality and fiction

That's Kenneth Conner???? I have often wondered who these two creatures are, but never bothered to check. Finally I did. I tremendously enjoyed the Carry On movies, but somebody was clearly slumming.

amazing how few of them seem to have read the script

It’s like pissing off Cartman. You get what you deserve.

They never did, and then Blackadder went forth.

When someone actually survives pissing him off to warn everyone.

The working class already knows, they mention in the series itself that Blackadder is a respected man about town. It's just the upper class, who can't even dress themselves, and the artists, who are so far up their own arse they taste their breakfast a second time, that haven't learned.

Blackadder is quite a negotiator!

@@ivantheterrible2594 Blackadder was ahead of his time, already expecting the great resignation.

Rx Hydra What is a groat?

Short version, an old form of currency. Long version: "The groat was an English silver coin with a value of four old pence. Its name has connections to old words in several European languages for "Great" - such as the Dutch groot, the French gros and the Italian Grosso, all of which had the same meaning. The coin was so named because it was larger and thicker than the penny, which was the predominant coin at the time the first groat was introduced - the year 1279. [1] The use of the groat continued through to the 19th century, and was eventually only included in Maundy Money sets, which sometimes however found their way into ordinary currency use." From this website: www.coinandbullionpages.com/english-silver-coins/groat.html

@@Tripas350 thank you sir. And thank you for actually giving us a source. And now i actually know why the word "groot" is actually the word it is. Thank you allthough im 2 years late.

@@Tripas350 They liked 1/3s in those days. A groat was a third of a shilling. A third of a pound was an angel, 6s 8d.

Could there be any relation to the famous most northern tip of the British Isle, John O Groats ? Like, it is said Scottish are quite keen on coinage, even (more) if it comes in small amounts ?

Dick Fageroni how original

If it did, English would be a circus.

FildasKirk Macbeth is a terrific play. I'm disappointed I didn't cover it in my A Level English Literature. I did Othello which is also excellent.

Can you imagine if it did?

+Gypsy Slagwagon You're lucky. Macbeth constituted only a tiny percentage of my A-Level English studies, the rest was devoted to the lovey-dovey tripe that is Romeo and Juliet.

If the predictions were coming true, why did they kill the king?

19th

Sounds like a cunning plan.

Don't forget the part where Blackadder takes action to bring them to their sorry end.

*T H I C C*

And Blackadder doesn't care.

Or is that friction and reality?

He wins at the end of all but the first two episodes this season. The most evil version of the character is also the most successful.

Saint Etienne yes RIP

He played in a few Carry On movies in his time.

And your a Childish prat sir!

It's treason then.

Sardinia was also mentioned in a Monty Python sketch.

Thats on top of whatever he was already earning. Plus he says that he hasnt had a raise in a fortnight. Wish my employers would raise my pay that often.

Then it's you'll be a millionaire?

+Jeremy Spice Me too! I have to steal his socks and sell them on the black market.

One thousand guinea pigs a month.

Similarly, the sum with which the Prince bribes Baldrick in the MP episode - £400,000 - is unrealistically high for that time.

"AAAaaaahhhhh! hot potato, off his drawers, puck to make amends!"

"Macbeth!!"

Gah! Phrasing!

A condemned Englishman once insisted to be given a coat and scarf, to wear when he was gonna walk to the execution block. He did not wanted to catch a cold.

@@MismeretMonk this is why people insist on sterilized needles

I was thinking the same thing but didn't know how to phrase it so others could understand.

It's called irony

How much worse could their luck possibly get? Maybe they were worried about tri`pping on the stairs leading to the hangmans pole

Oh goodness me Darcy. It’s been a week since I thought of that, and let me tell you something. It seems that such proclamations to an Arab line manager in Arabia doesn’t go well 😭😂 he did not get it at all. Nonetheless, I am still master of my cubicle kingdom. 🧐

Likewise likewise. Don’t worry we Arabs have made killing one another a habit of ours, but not here in the UAE, at least not yet, fingers crossed. Do have a wonderful day ahead of you my lady, bows* turns around, runs into line manager, fight in sews, respective tribes get involved, civil war! Darn it Darcy! 😅

Aaah! Hot potatoes, orchestra stalls, puck to make amends!

pix046 that would be the scottish power play. Easy mistake.

Obviously

No no, they meant 'Macbeth'

Oooh BUUURRRN. True story though the Scotts voted to stay in the UK so they'd be able to stay in the EU and then the English caused BREXIT. Slow clap. The Americans had the right idea.
