Blackadder reading - suggestions wanted

I've always loved the scene (from E2) which ends with...

[The telephone rings, Blackadder picks it up.]

Edmund: Hello, the Savoy Grill. Oh, it's you..... yes..... yes, I'll be over in 40 minutes.

Baldrick: Who was it then sir?

Edmund: Strangely enough Baldrick, it was Pope Gregory IX, inviting me for drinks aboard his steam-yacht "The Saucy Sue", currently wintering in Montego Bay with the England Cricket team and the Balinese goddess of plenty.

Baldrick: Really?

Edmund: No, not really. I'm ordered to HQ. No doubt that idiot General Melchett is about to offer me some attractive new opportunities to have my brains blown out for Britain.

Ooh, you have to do a scene featuring Darling.

Saying "Darling" always gets a laugh.

What about Baldrick reading out his war poems? How can forget "The German Guns".

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!

The scene where Melchett and Darling come to inspect the paintings that the men have done. That's a very funny scene.

Everyone: The King!

Everyone salutes apart from Baldrick.

Baldrick: (LOOKING ROUND) Where?

I love the bit in the Private Plane episode that goes something like this:

FLASH
Always treat your kite, like you treat your woman.

GEORGE
Do you mean take her home at the weekends to visit your mother?

FLASH
No. I mean get inside her five times a day and take her to heaven and back.

That bit in that one episode that has the line ending with "move his drinks cabinet six inches closer to Berlin."

Sorry, I don't do memory very well.

I've always loved the Tom Baker scenes from Blackadder II. "You have a woman's hands!"

(I just read the thread proper and realised it was only suggestions from Blackadder 4. Oops).

The 'futile gesture' scene? Seems to have stood the test of time...

How about where Blackadder is trying to get out of 'the push' by pretending to have gone mad.

Wibble.

You're not using my pencils.

Do you remember the pleasure you got as a kid from having a new pencil?

I've had the same one all my life.

Although it does keep on getting longer again.

Aw, the pencil fairy is making secret visits.

I still get very excited about buying new stationery. Pencils! Erasers! Notebooks!
Woo!

I'm quite sad that I have no reason to buy little protractors and set squares and stuff anymore though.

You could make things out of them. Like model houses. Or something. :/

I always liked pens.
