Sense and Senility was the fourth episode of Blackadder the Third and features some lessons in posture, presentation and diction for the Prince Regent from a pair of popular thespians. In this podcast Gerry and Iain consider whether there are some things that simply cannot be taught and reveal the content of the Macbeth anti-jinx.
 


 
In the fourth episode of Blackadder the Third there were two principal guests – Hugh Paddick and Kenneth Connor as the Regent’s tutors, Keanrick and Mossop. Ben Elton also had a brief cameo as an anarchist who tries to assassinate Prince George in the early part of the episode.
