No Word For "Fluffy"

Lord of Adders Black: A Blackadder Podcast

Episode 7: No Word For ‘Fluffy’

Welcome to the Lord of Adders Black fan podcast, where Michael and Ian explore the universe of cult sitcom Blackadder while diving off at the occasional tangent.

Episode number seven has a distinctly international flair, with voice messages from far-flung listeners sparking lively discussions about people actually called Blackadder in real life and what cameos Mel Smith and Griff Rhys Jones might have had in Blackadder The Third.

We also chat with German linguist and comedy enthusiast Felix Anker about getting English comedy to work in other languages and whether his fellow countrymen and women get a rougher deal than most at the hands of the various Blackadders.

And delving into our Trivia Treasure Trove, we discover that there is a very good reason why the Blackadder canon is positively riddled with Bernards…
