Blackadder

By the sound of the trumpets, you'd think a new season was imminent! The latest buzz around a potential Blackadder Season 5 comes directly from Sir Tony Robinson, our beloved Baldrick. In recent interviews, he has enthusiastically confirmed that the original cast, including Rowan Atkinson, Hugh Laurie, and Stephen Fry, are all "very, very keen" to reunite for one more historical romp. However, he cautions that the biggest obstacle isn't a lack of cunning plans, but rather the monumental cost of getting the superstar cast back together. For now, the idea remains a brilliant but expensive dream.

While the cast's desire has fans buzzing with excitement, it is crucial to note that there has been no official confirmation or commission for a new season from the BBC. As of right now, there is no production schedule, and therefore, no air date to mark on your calendar. All recent talk remains speculative, hinging on whether the significant financial and logistical hurdles can be overcome. Don't let rumors catch you out!
