(Blackadder shows Baldrick a potato)
Blackadder: I mean, look at this. What is it?
Baldrick: I'm surprised you've forgotten, my lord.
Blackadder: I haven't forgotten; it's a rhetorical question.
Baldrick: No, it's a potato.
| Queen Elizabeth: (referring to Sir Walter Raleigh) It's him. Oh, God. Do I look absolutely divine and regal, and yet and at the same time very pretty and rather accessible?
| Captain Redbeard Rum: (to Blackadder) Sir, you have a woman's buttom!
