Ben Elton inspired by Michael Gove Blackadder criticism

Writer and comedian Ben Elton has said his most recent novel, about someone travelling back in time to prevent the First World War from starting, was partially inspired by Michael Gove. Former education secretary Mr Gove said Elton's TV sitcom Blackadder Goes Forth, which he co-wrote with Richard Curtis "perpetuated left wing myths about World War 1".
