h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

My favourite bit in Balckadder Goes Forth has got to be the menu served to Captain Darling and Genral Melchett by Baldrick after the disasterous show.

Hysterical episode all round really!!

In fact Blackadder 1,2,3,4 and specials get my vote as funniest thing since Second Gunner Funny of Funnyslovakia painted a target on his bum and ran through No Mans Land saying German snipers couldn't hit a barn door for toffee etc etc etc

Or Baldricks "Rat Au Vin"
(A rat who has been run over by a van)

I like Percy's alchemy efforts:

'Can it be true? That I hold in my hand a piece of purest green?'

Turnip.

What about paralysed Mrs Miggins honouring the occasion of Sir Walter Raleigh's return by baking a huge great pie in the shape of an enormous pie!

Or the turnip served to Lord and Lady Whiteadder.

'That turnip... Very Funny!!!'

I found it particularly ironic becasue I have a thingy that's shaped like a turnip!

(Did I say that outloud?)

Head:
Edmund: You are to congratulated my good man, in an age where disease and deformity are rife, you are without doubt the most repulsive human being I have ever met.

and...

Edmund: We’ll execute him on Monday instead of Friday, lets just say he’s gotten time off for good behaviour.

Lastly...

Edmund: What happened to the last executioner?

Metchett: He got careless and signed his signature to the wrong piece of paper. They came for him during the night.

Edmund: Why didn’t he tell them they had the wrong man?

Metchett: He did, but you see they did have the right man and the paperwork to prove it!
