Bonus Episode 27: Udderly Ridiculous (Blackadder)

We have a cunning plan! Back in December, Julie polled the three other Watchers on what British comedy she should give a try over the holiday period – the answer was unanimous: Blackadder. Fast forward a few months. We were on hiatus, following the loss of our co-host, Don. We started talking about making our comeback, and decided to do start with something to test out the new dynamic among the three of us. Rather than do some Doctor Who, we chose something that we could get away with not releasing if it didn’t work out, and the decision was made to talk about Blackadder. The fortunate thing is that we were so happy with our discussion that we decided to edit it into a bonus episode and release it for you all to hear! If you would like to watch along with us, the entirety of Blackadder is available to watch on both Britbox US (https://www.britbox.com) and Britbox UK (https://www.britbox.co.uk).
