Blackadder
From the mists of medieval England to the court of Queen Elizabeth I, from the glamour of the Georgian era to the grim trenches of the First World War. As the superlative sitcom Blackadder celebrates its 40th anniversary, we pay tribute to one of the pillars of British comedy.
Launched in 1983 by writer Richard Curtis and star Rowan Atkinson – with the vital assistance of BBC producer John Lloyd and co-author Ben Elton – the series is regularly named among the finest sitcoms of all time, while its scheming, amoral hero has become one of our most adored TV characters.
The Blackadder stamp collection is completed with a Minisheet celebrating the main character Edmund Blackadder, played by Rowan Atkinson, in all of his guises over each of the four series of the classic sitcom.
A set of eight stamps capturing moments spanning four series of the classic British sitcom.
