The plot, if you can call it that, follows Edmund Blackadder (voiced by Rowan Atkinson) and his trusty sidekick, Baldrick (voiced by Tony Robinson), as they embark on a journey to Egypt. Yes, you read that right - Egypt. It's a setting that was already explored in the second series of Blackadder, "Blackadder II", but I suppose the filmmakers thought, "Why not revisit the same tired setting and hope no one notices?"
Blackadder is one of the most celebrated British sitcoms of all time. Starring Rowan Atkinson as the cynical, scheming Edmund Blackadder and Tony Robinson as his dim-witted sidekick Baldrick, the show spanned four seasons, each set in a different historical era (from the Middle Ages to World War I).
