Blackadder - S4 E1 - Captain Cook

In my defense! In my defense, "Captian Crook" would have also worked! xD

New season, new scene, same comedy! I love it!

Ahh right! I always heard about the women's side, but yes! Thinking about it, "ideal body image" has always been tough for everyone

Mandy Cane Lane

I would say that the idea of "what a man should look like" is actually a lot better than it used to be. 1980's/90's - Stallone, Schwarzenegger (and everyone in the movie, Predator!), Mr T., Lundgren, Van-Damme, Hulk Hogan MCU actors from 2008 onwards - Downey Jr, Norton/Ruffalo, Pratt, Rudd, Hiddleston I'm happy enough with my dad bod. lol

Be careful - emails and texts like that can come from malevolent sources wanting you to click on a link that you think is your bank so they can steal your login details... Don't let yourself be rushed into doing things because the email/text says it's mega-urgent. Sounds like it was legit this time but we all need to be aware of that stuff.

BobSandwiches

They'll be the most recent ones on the last 2 seasons of taskmaster vids 😂

Joshyboiiiiii

Hahaha! I am getting to them, not sure which ones I am missing though, the comments system is a mess 😅

Mandy Cane Lane

HAHHAHA! They are invisible to YOU! (And me, but that part isn't important😝)

Mandy Cane Lane

Haha! It scared me because it was from the bank! Apparently when I had ordered food hours before they accidentally charged me twice. The email I got was a refund for the second payment, but the notification was from the bank with the amount and I thought my card got stolen, lol. 😅 It was actually a good email because I hadn't even noticed they charged me twice 😋

Mandy Cane Lane

Jeeeeez wasn't expecting that 🤯🤯 btw I hope you get round to my taskmaster comments 😅😅

December 24th 😠

Mandy Cane Lane

Hello M

Adam

Random question of the day. When should the first Christmas film/song be aired every year?

Joshyboiiiiii

Nice \m/ and i meant to put FLAG, dammit! well, its amended now.

Industrialist2015ofUk

If you store your eggs in the fridge that tends to happen, most people here in the UK don't however. There's reasons why you don't have to here and need to in some other places.

irreverend

Hope the email wasn't bad news.

Todd Rush

Llandudno in the summer still has a Punch and Judy show.

Stuart

I’m too impatient to start them in cold water, I’ve got things to do. Don’t fully submerge them, make sure the top of the egg is sticking out of the water. It doesn’t always work, it depends on the attitude of the egg 🥚

Julian T

I love Mandy breaking down from invisible mosquitos

Sadbnnuy

Hey in my defense tho I can bake. Bread cakes cookies brownies all that. Love the smell of a house with baking going on ☺️Sweet tooth, I guess I found what I liked. But all those pots and pans and prep and then hours waiting all a lot of effort for a 5 min meal. what is point? 🤌

.

Hahaha, you silly geese! 🤣 In my defense, I know nothing of the subject. 🤣 Rammstein on the other hand = 🤟🏻🤩🖤

Mandy Cane Lane

Still. Hulk looks way more hulkish then she Hulk . She-hulk is still attractive. Im not complaining 😆 . . . But women dont even get to be "ugly" (if they want)

Carl-Fredrik L

Huh Julian, in my egg experience I always place the eggs in cold water and slowly bring to a boil because when I drop them in already boiling water the quick temperature change cracks them 😔

Mandy Cane Lane

Viewings!! Haha, that was the word! 🤣🤣 I too have cooked one too many things in an electric kettle in times of emergency ( no gas) lol

Mandy Cane Lane

"A sausage hungry crocodile" 🤣🤣🤣 They remind me of the puppets in the beginning of The Hunchback Of Notredame 🤭. Yeah, it is tough times for entertainment lately. Thank you for filling me in Tony 🩵

Mandy Cane Lane

Shedul-seeings-sightings to quote directly. 🤣

Benjamin Taylor-Yates

It is not a state to live in, just for photoshoots or filming. No way anyone can keep that up for long.... then again, Bruce Lee comes to mind 🤔

Mandy Cane Lane

That is indeed a very cool picture! I don't know much about my family before my grandparents 🤔

Mandy Cane Lane

Lmao!! Fair enough! I actually really like the topic of ancient Greece and Rome, especially the mythology. Dinosaurs and wildlife from millions of years ago is always fascinating

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahaha! It was not that kind of email, it was from the bank, lol! 🤣🤣🤣 Viewings! What did I say? 😅

Mandy Cane Lane

Very true Carl! Only super buff women in the hero that comes to mind is She Hulk, but she is only buff when she is green 🤔

Mandy Cane Lane

https://youtu.be/VQFE2r13RFE?si=OYELmPe_7ODz8C_A This is the story of dick Whittington. It's a horrible thing to say about any woman isn't it. Take a month off look at apartments and eat ice cream 🍦 😋

Josh Read

And he shot a bird

Joshyboiiiiii

Really? How odd. I have never heard this before, but what of those poor men who can't grow facial hair? 😥

Mandy Cane Lane

Poor Gal. 😥 Can you imagine critizing such a gorgeous woman for something so stupid? Also thank you Josh, you have always been so supportive and understanding. 🩵 Mr 44? Not so much, lol. Who is Dick Whittington?

Mandy Cane Lane

Hello Joe! The topic has come up when I saw people where Poppies in The Graham Norton Show, but I could use some better context and refreshing! Thank you sir! 🩵

Mandy Cane Lane

Lol, give me some time for three, but number one: in Friends Pheobe dates a cop called Gary that shot himself in the foot. 🤣 They didn't show it, but Pheobe tells it.

Mandy Cane Lane

Lmao! Again, however you please Josh 🤗

Mandy Cane Lane

I've seen enough of the big bang theory to do a quiz I think. Probably next month a Christmas quiz even tho Christmas can get in the bin 😂😂

Joshyboiiiiii

Here's a question. You said that someone shoots themselves in the foot in every sitcom. Name three. Even One Foot in the Grave, which sounds like it might be about someone shouting themselves in the foot and then having to bury their own foot in a grave, isn't about that at all. It's actually about an old man called Victor.

Jeffrey44

Thank you Liam! 🩵

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahahha! I do guess that cooking isn't for everyone 🤭

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahhaa! Very true! 🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

As you wish! Those quizzes are fun! HIMYM is good. Big Bang Theory maybe 🤔

Mandy Cane Lane

It's not a random question but whatevs 😂 so last month I did a friends quiz and it seemed to go down well. So shall I do 1 quiz a month? If so I'll do a HIMYM one cause I've seen every episode but what else could I do future quizzes on?

Joshyboiiiiii

I love how the dynamic between Rowan Atkinson's character and Hugh Laurie's character stays basically the same even though Blackadder went from being the servant to the commanding officer 😁

DriveIn

No, this is wrong. Mandy Cane Lane must concentrate on her reactions. It is her job and she doesn't get time off for frivolous things like looking for a home for her and her cat. This is not a Dick Whittington situation.

Jeffrey44

Yeah I cant boil an egg either. 😏 Not soft boiled the way I like it anyways. I know HOW to do it - but just doesn't work . The physics go phys different when I try ok... But I stopped trying tho. Hate proper cooking. Can't be arsed. Go to all that fuss just to throw it in the bin and have beans on toast. 😅 And when the dog won't even eat your leftovers well it's just undignifying. Over rated.

.

Interesting recipe. Personally I utilise the kettle to boil the water. Then I decant the water into a pan. And then, this is the important part, I lower the egg into the water using a soup ladle. The beauty of this technique is that the ladle can hold 2 eggs, and can also be used to rinse under cold water at the end, without losing control of the eggs. I’m waiting to hear back from Masterchef.

Julian T

Here's a colorized version I did, before AI was used for such things. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1K9BTmKCpf-dabWQuHTyaQeFZYl4JAfvf/view?usp=drivesdk

Tony Mingoia

Good luck with your viewings Mandy, hope all goes well! 😊

AWR93

Not sure if anyone has recommended looking up the history of the Poppy for this show (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGCHk5_2skY) IT won't be obvious why this is relevant til later but the context will help

Joe Jones

Yeah, it was always a thing. Think of all the boy band boys and movie 'hunks' when you were growing up, smooth as a dolphin and more abdominal bumps than a centipede. Short, fat or hairy guys might as well go join a Super Mario cosplay group and call it day.

Z is for Zed

@Stevus Haha, ya muppet

Tony Mingoia

Take a week or so off and concentrate on viewing ( viewing was the word you were looking for) apartments. Don't stress about finding time to film. We will be here when you are ready 🤗 I've been waiting for you to get to this series 🙌 the next episode is amazing 😀 Speaking of body image for super heros, the actress gal dadot who plays wonder woman received awful abuse when she was cast. Horrible people said she can't be wonder woman as her breasts are too small 😠

Josh Read

That is very cool 🫡

Josh Read

From the height of the Victorian era, up until the first world war, it was mandatory for all enlisted men in the British army to have a moustache. This fell out of favour in the UK, but had been common across the Empire, and still remains in Southern India, where police officers are still encouraged to grow moustaches and get paid more if they do have one, as it is seen as a symbol of authority.

Yoshua Simoleit

What i find interesting is how male superheroes are ripped, while the superstrong female heroes still look like hot slim models. Its basically the regular old beauty standards however one tries to spin it with "in universe logic". Wonder Woman, Captain Marvel, Buffy the Vampire slayer...

Carl-Fredrik L

Is that King Boomer!?

Stevus

Good to hear you've got plenty of "viewings" to go to. Keeping busy. I did see that Hugh Jackman interview. Common thing in Hollywood. I mean I still go to the gym for strength but I was never interested in getting really prominent muscles. There's a general stigma around it if anything. Big muscle = small brain basically. And yeah, I hate filters too. Self worth is a big problem at the moment. Tomáto / tomàto. 🤣 When did potato come. into it? I get those important emails too "I'm a lonely girl, come watch this video handsome man." 🤣 Or "hello my name is Faruk I'm fr0m tax officē you owe many money, click this link to enter you're bank details. Long prison and fine scentance if you don't cooperation" 🤣

Benjamin Taylor-Yates

Have we got monkey news today?

Industrialist2015ofUk

You're an idiot, play a record. I have a Rammstein tattoo on my arm also 😎

Danny

I share your confusion as to how your brother failed to boil an egg. Bring water to a boil, put egg in water, keep boiling for 7 minutes, put egg in cold water to cool down. Hell, I've boiled eggs in an electric kettle just by putting them in the kettle, boiling it and leaving them in there for 10 minutes while the water is still hot.

irreverend

I have a question for you Mandy seems you are watching a lot of historical " '' themed shows what are some of your favourite historical topics. AND just because friend's is 20 years old that does not count

Remi

We should all aspire to look like Deadpool I guess. Plus he's funnier :)

My great grandad was a soldier in WW1. Private Edward Albert Tagg of the South Staffordshire machine guns. I thought you might like to see his picture: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DVjmrJ3W5cL_pa0h1gnTBhTswdcvyeIR/view?usp=drivesdk

Tony Mingoia

8:20 I had this discussion/ argument with someone last night, having a 6 pack and being ripped isn't healthy you need some fat, those people who are ripped with no body fat are always low on energy and all fucked up

Remi

Hi Mandy! When Blackadder says to Baldrick (regarding his mother) "If only she was as good looking as Punch", he's referring to a traditional puppet show called Punch and Judy, which, though it has its origins in Italy, has been an English staple since the 17th century. It's basically violent slapstick handpuppetry depicting a husband and wife, and a sausage hungry crocodile. It's nowhere near as common as it used to be, perhaps because it depicts spousal abuse or something. You know how it is these days. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punch_and_Judy

Tony Mingoia

Apartment viewings possibly? Although I like sightings, I spotted a flat earlier :)

irreverend

but they did cook some of him, for the bones, so ha!

Industrialist2015ofUk

thanks for ruining it for Mandy HAHA. was meant to be a joke! like what Ricky would do to Karl. btw, i have a Rammstein tattoo on my arm and saw em at O2 arena

Industrialist2015ofUk

That never happened. They clubbed him and stabbed him. They didnt eat him

Danny

Fun fact about Captain Cook; the Hawaiians adopted the British flag and incorporated it into their flag, cuz they felt bad about cannibalizing and cooking Cook!
