Blackadder's Christmas Carol

Blackadder's Christmas Carol (1988) is a parody of the story rather than an adaptation. It stars Rowan Atkinson, Tony Robinson, Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie, Robbie Coltrane, Miranda Richardson, Miriam Margolyes, and Jim Broadbent. This is a lot of fun.

  1. This is so frustrating. My friend Scott came by last night and he couldn't get my flash to work. He decided it was probably time I get a new computer.

    1. Have you tried updating Flash? I think youtube requires the latest version, so that may be all it is. How old is your computer? That would make a difference, I guess. The oldest computer here is a 7-8 year old laptop, and it still plays videos. It's been updated to Windows 10 and the Flash version is updated automatically. It would be frustrating for me if I couldn't watch videos on my computer. As you know, I do a lot of that lol

    1. It's less than 45 minutes long, so that makes it an easy choice for me ;)

  3. I have nver watched Blackadder so I doubt I would appreciate the satire. I'm having interenet issues now and things stop and start every few seconds. I was saving some of these to watch today, but that may not happen after all.

    1. I've never watched Blackadder either, but it still worked for me as a picture of Scrooge in reverse. And it's hard to say "no" to watching something with that cast lol. Internet issues are a pain, I know. It's so frustrating if I have to deal with continual buffering or pages just not loading :( I hope you get those problems solved soon.
