Advantages: Interesting Disadvantages: Not enough of the "old" history of the East end
the "Moseleyite" Brown shirt marches, the dreadful war years, the 1950s, and 1960s and 1970s, but, of course, does not really deal with the history of the East End, but it does touch briefly (very, very briefly) on some of the heroes of the East End, including General Booth founder of the Salvation Army.
This programme is not a real vision of the East End Through the Ages, but a partial view of certain aspects of the East End.

things. He is the dreamer, in every series the Blackadder character's status gets lower and lower, and so do his expectations and aspirations, but he never gives up trying to find a way around whatever life throws at him, and it is this I think, that the modern viewer empathises with.
As a show, it was hugely successful, but not from series one. It earned it's place as the nations second most beloved sitcom (after Only Fool's of course), through trial and error, and with a fantastically versatile cast and a perfect leading man. It has had multiple co-writers and directors throughout it's life, but it would have all fallen apart without Curtis holding it together and Atkinson making it work, and boy does it work.
