A Bit Of Fry And Laurie - Series 1-4 - The Complete Collection DVD

Advantages: conveniantly packaged, good series, lots of laughs, very amusing
Disadvantages: quite short series

...I purchased the complete Blackadder collection for £35 at HMV and it was certainly money well spent. I think the acting and humour is top notch and it features 4 of televisions greatest actors of all time "Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie, Rowan Atkinson and Tony Robinson). very wry and witty this is a great box set to buy if you want some top quality BBC made entertainment. However, the entire 4 series only adds up to 14 hours,so i feel that the box set should be a little cheaper as you can buy the entire Jeeves and Wooster collection on the Play.com website for £25 and that amounts to around 18 hours and over 20 episodes. On the whole i was immensely pleased with the product. If you are a fan of the series then this is one boxset you will not want to miss out on. when regarding the actual product; the boxset that contains the 6 dvs's is... Read review

Advantages: hilarious, brilliant comedy and even better picture quality than the t.v. version!
Disadvantages: laugh track kept on - can be a bit annoying

Each episode runs for about 20 minutes and has a brief indroduction, song and theme tune at the begining, as well as closing credits for each episode.

'Sergeant Wilson's Little Secret' this one sees mishaps and blundering adventures when Sergeant Wilson overhears a conversation which... Read review

Advantages: Price, Laughter, Acting,
Disadvantages: No Extras,

...Second best sitcom according to viewers of the BBC sereies "Britains Best Sitcom"? Coming second only to Only Fools and Horses… I order a re-count! I believe Blackadder deserved a lot more as the acting and the events which happen to Edmund Blackadder (Rowan Atkinson - the former Mr Bean) and his servant Baldrick (Tony Robinson - Time Team) are only to be laughed at again and again. "Blackadder - The complete collection" is a 6 disc DVD limited edition box set of all the 4 Blackadder series, including the 3 specials Blackadders Christmas Carol, The Cavalier Years and the most recent Blackadder:Back and Forth. The Box set is amazing piece of artwork with the symbol of a Knife with a adder around it on the front. Every fan knows that to be the symbol of History's bogeyman, Edmund Blackadder. On sliding out the DVD's from... Read review
