Pitt
the Younger has just been elected Prime Minister. His priorities are: war with
France, tougher sentences for geography teachers and a right royal kick up the
Prince's backside. To stop Parliament from voting away all George's money,
Blackadder hatches a fiendish plan, to get Baldrick elected to Parliament in order
to do Blackadder's bidding. Review:A healthy satire on modern
elections, with an accurate look back at traditional methods of fixing them, is
ample plot for our cunning hero. He doesn't need hanging chads to get his way,
but he clearly had't reckoned on the hereditary stupidity of Baldrick, or the
persistent ambition of the Pitt family. Good fun, right up to the end. Credits:
