While
George is in hospital, he befriends a pretty nurse called Mary and a highly suspicious
soldier called Smith, who speaks with a strong German accent. Melchett
has information that a German spy is at work at the hospital, and he asks Blackadder
to "smoke the bugger out". Blackadder enjoys his time at the
hospital immensely, seeing a lot of Nurse Mary, "almost all of her, in fact."
Despite all the evidence, he exposes her as the spy and she is sent out to face
the firing squad ... Review:Ah, that Miranda ... another
great episode based on missing the obvious in style. George plods gently through,
while everything happens around him. Even Blackadder at his coolest fails to spot
what's going on, until it's too late. Cracking stuff! Credits:
