Blackadder Goes Forth
4 July - 12 July, 2025
Blackadder Goes Forth is the fourth and final series of the British historical sitcom set during World War I.
It follows the exploits of Captain Edmund Blackadder, a cynical and cowardly officer in the trenches of Flanders.
​
With the help of his batman, Private Baldrick, and his idealistic but dim-witted lieutenant, George, Blackadder desperately tries to avoid the horrors of trench warfare and the inevitability of going "over the top".
