I think the answer says a lot about what generation you are from.

Were you watching Tony Robinson's Superstitions earlier then?

He was observing brain surgery, to illustrate a point about how far medicine has come. The patient was awake but sedated - think all those post-dentist youtube videos - and called for him, and when he went over to hold her hand and she asked him if she should call him "Tony or Baldrick".

Funny little moment.

One of the best castings in it was Miranda Richardson as Queen Elizabeth.
Deliciously vicious and psychotic in equal measures

He was also in "Maid Marion and her Merry Men" on CBBC.

That was good, too.

Loved that show
It was on Sunday mornings and I was trying to watch to the end before being driven to Mass by the mammy

Theme song was ridiculously catchy, I still remember it

I've always called Timeteam "History with Baldrick"

Baldrick from season one The Blackadder was a lot different then in the other three seasons of the show. He had the brains and Blackadder was the thicko.:D
