Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which of the following was not a use of potatoes mentioned by Blackadder in his conversation with Baldrick?

Answer: Using them as fuel.

After the smoking remark, Melchett offered Blackadder a potato in a large snuff box... "No thanks, I don't!"

2. What present did Blackadder bring for Nursie after his voyage had finished?

Answer: Beard

If you remember, Redbeard Rum (the captain of the ship Blackadder hired) and Nursie got engaged before the voyage began. After he was attacked by cannibals Blackadder rescued the beard and brought it back for his fianc�e - "I shall wear it always to remind me of him!" Nursie with a beard - very surreal!

3. After Raleigh arrived at court, what did Blackadder and Queenie say it smelled of?

Answer: Fish

Edmund used this (false) accusation to get out of court to arrange his voyage, and when Queenie decided she preferred Blackadder, she said - "You do smell of fish! Pooey!"

4. Where did Redbeard Rum usually take his ship when he didn't know the way to their original destination?

Answer: The Isle of Wight

He'd sail round it a few times until everyone was seasick and take them home again. The Isle of Man wasn't mentioned, France was where Blackadder wanted to go instead of the Cape of Good Hope and Australia was where Blackadder, Baldrick and Percy ended up after Rum was captured.

5. What other explorer was mentioned during the parade scene?

Answer: Drake

Edmund, not the biggest fan of explorers, called him "Francis Drake and his Golden Behind" - a pun on the name of his ship, the Golden Hind.
