E.
- Name? - Baldrick, your honour.

Thank you, your honour.
I can't tell you what it is unless you want me to tell you and you told me you didn't want me to tell you and () thatwaswrong and Ibegyourpardon and We must leave at once.
The shadows lenghten and we have a long and arduous journey ahead of us.
Farewell, dear master, and dare I say, friend? Farewell, brave liberator, and, dare I say it: butler? I can't get through the () door.

Oh god Oh god could I start again? He's dead, sir.
- Dead? - Yes, your higness.
Ah what bad luck.
We were rather getting on.

Crisis, Baldrick, crisis! No marriage, no money, and more bills.
For the first time in my life, I've decided to follow a Oh () how do I put this on? Crisis, Baldrick, crisis! No marriage, no money, and more bills.
For the first time in my life, I've decided to follow a suggestion of yours.
What do you make of that? I don't know your honour.
But mr.
B.
does say it's very difficult to get things right when I'm around because of the fetid smell of boneheaded stupidity.
So are you to blame for this as well? Enter! Doctor Johnson, your highness.
Ah, doctor Johnson.
Damn cold day! Indeed it is sir, but a very fine one.
For I celebrated last night the - What? - I can't remember.
Yes, that is my fault your honour.
Think about it, I mean: The cleverest man in the whole of England thinks he's coming to visit the prince of Wales, and when he knocks at the door, it's opened by a dung ball in trousers.
Merry christmas VT! Murder, murder, murder! Murder oh, shit door away! Do you have anything to say before your sentence? No I don't your honour.
But mr.
Blackadder did ask me to give you a special message.
