• Bob Parkhurst : I want to see how a war is fought, so badly.

  Captain Blackadder : Well, you've come to the right place, Bob. A war hasn't been fought this badly since Olaf the Hairy, high chief of all the vikings, accidentally ordered 80,000 battle helmets with the horns on the inside.

• Bob Parkhurst : I want to do my bit for the boys, sir.

  Captain Blackadder : Oh really?

  Bob Parkhurst : I'll do anything, sir.

  Captain Blackadder : Yes, I'd keep that to yourself if I was you.

• Bob Parkhurst : [Reacting to the crowd's ovation to the variety show]  They love him, sir. We're a hit!

  Captain Blackadder : Yes, in one short evening I've become the most successful impresario since the manager of the Roman Coliseum thought of putting the Christians and the Lions on the same bill.
