Black Adder The Complete Collector's Set — One of the best comedy series ever to emerge from England, Black Adder traces the deeply cynical and selfserving lineage of various Edmund Blackadders from the muck of the Middle A... more »ges to the frontline of World War I. In his preBean triumph, British comic actor Rowan Atkinson played all five versions of Edmund, beginning with the villainous and cowardly Duke of Edinburgh, whose scheming mind and awful haircut seem to stand him in good stead to become the next Archbishop of Canterburya deadly occupation if ever there was one. Among tales of royal dethronings, Black Death, witch smellers (who root out spell makers with their noses), and ghosts, Edmund is a perennial survivor who never quite gets ahead in multiple episodes.
