Plot

What was a cunning plan from Lord Edmund Blackadder V to fake a time machine on his gullibly incompetent friends, turns out to be the real thing and hurls him and his imbecile underling, Baldrick, through the course of human history.

New Year's Eve, 1999, Blackadder Hall. While entertaining his dinner party guests - Archbishop Melchett, Archdeacon Darling, Major George Bufton-Tufton and Lady Elizabeth - cunning-as-a-fox Lord Edmund Blackadder suggests a wager. To prove that he can travel through time with his fully operational time machine, built to the exact specifications of the great Leonardo Da Vinci, Blackadder bets £10,000 that he can retrieve any item of historical interest they request. Of course, the marvellous device is nothing more than a pile of planks ingeniously put together by Baldrick, and imagine their surprise when the mismatched duo discovers that the time-travel machine truly works. But tampering with history is never without grave consequences. Will the world be the same after Blackadder's trip across centuries?
