[edit] Regiment?

The article states that he's in one of the Cambridgeshire regiments. Can't we tell which one by the cap badge? To my eyes the cap badge appears to show a castle, like that on the badge of the KOSB.

[edit] Tone

These words from someone who, over the space of four series spanning several centuries, had become known to the public as an egotistical, self-centered, cynical, blunt, sly, thieving, corrupt, villainous, yet curiously likable character, went a long way to underline the serious, sobering mood of this episode. In these last few moments of this momentous sitcom all the clever put-downs, the witty one-liners, the slapstick and the turnip jokes, were pushed aside and the viewers realised that this was no longer a comedy but a harsh, cruel and grim statement of fact.

This is poor encyclopedia tone and original research, which needs to be edited out at some point. SGGH ^speak! 15:24, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] KIA

The final episode of 'Blackadder Goes Forth' leave open the possibility Captain Blackadder survived the charge. Therefore his demise may not have been in 1917. GoodDay (talk) 21:20, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
