Episode overview
A rare look at what went on behind the scenes during the filming of Blackadder Goes Forth. Behind the Screen drops in during the production of Blackadder Goes Forth, to discover that the cast tend to eschew traditional rehearsals in favour of exhaustive periods of tweaking - or 'plumpening' - practically every line in the script for maximum comic effect. Includes interviews with writer Richard Curtis, producer John Lloyd and actors Rowan Atkinson (Captain Blackadder) Stephen Fry (General Melchett) and Tony Robinson (Private Baldrick).
