      Based on the legendary BBC sitcom, prepare to be transported back to the hilarious, historically-inspired world of Blackadder that has captivated audiences for decades. Blackadder II - The Golden Age is a special production that takes us to the raucous, scheming court of Elizabethan England, where the ever-conniving Lord Edmund Blackadder navigates the treacherous waters of royal favour through his unparalleled wit and cowardly cunning. 

      On Blackadder's side are his hapless, idiotic sidekicks - the pompous, aristocratic buffoon Lord Percy and the perpetually turnip-obsessed Baldrick, whose sheer stupidity never fails to undermine Blackadder's ambitions. 

      To gain the coveted approval of the eccentric, rambunctious Queen Elizabeth I, known affectionately as "Queenie," Blackadder must also contend with the eccentric ramblings of the elderly, nonsensical Nursie and the crafty, scornful Lord Melchett. 

      Enjoy a sumptuous Elizabethan Christmas banquet complete with troubadours and other festive entertainers - this will undoubtedly be the must-see comedic event of the season, transporting audiences back to a bygone era of court intrigue, slapstick absurdity, and Blackadder's signature biting wit.
