They’ve deleted their post now, but some guy claimed to be a descendant of Robin Hood.
I love the people on this site 😂

[i]Baldrick[/i]: My favourite's [i]The Shadow[/i]! What a man! They say he's halfway to being the new Robin Hood.
[i]Blackadder:[/i] Why only halfway?
[i]Baldrick[/i]: Well, he steals from the rich but hasn't got round to giving it to the poor...

@SW-User I understand there's plans to make further episodes, so there'll be more laughs in the future.

@senghenydd I can't help thinking it's a bad idea... I mean, Blackadder Back and Forth worked, but that was almost a greatest hits reprisal. I'm skeptical....
Besides, how can Blackadder survive without the late, great Rik Mayall?

@SW-User I think it'll be ok, there's Producers and Directors and a hundred or so staff working on these sets, they know how to get us all to laugh.

@senghenydd I've Googled it. As far as I can tell, apart from a Comic Relief sketch that happened this year (starring only Baldrick), there is nothing about any new episodes.

[b]One of the Tv news channels I was watching mentioned they were planning a new series of Black Adders episodes however I've looked on-line and can only see a one off episode planned see below.[/b]
[b]Blackadder to return for first time in 20 years – with a twist

[b]Blackadder is set to rise again for the first time in 20 years, according to series co-creator Richard Curtis.
The show originally aired from 1983 to 1989 with a one-off special 10 years later in 1999. Now, however, it's returning for a brand new Comic Relief special.
In an interview with Gary Davies on BBC's Radio 2 Breakfast (via Metro), Curtis confirmed that Tony Robinson's Baldrick, who was the sidekick to Rowan Atkinson's titular Blackadder, will be returning to our TV screens.

"God, I’m really nervous about saying this but... I think for the first time in 20 years, Baldrick is going to be giving some kind of performance," Curtis said.
"We’re just conspiring about it now, so I think there is going to be a marvellous, turnip-based thing with Tony Robinson now back in action, so I’m kind of excited about that."
Davies then asked Curtis if Atkinson, who co-created Blackadder with him, would be joining the special – but Curtis sadly said he isn't.[/b]
