Blackadder 'Goodbyee'
How does the programme Blackadder describe the lives, fears and feelings of the men in World War One , and how does the producer use specific media devices and how it is likely to effect the audience
In the satirical comedy Blackadder goes Forth, I will be discussing the final episode 'Goodbyee,' and how the programme describes the lives, fears and feelings of the men in World War One. I will also be describing how the producers use specific media devices and how it is likely to affect the people in the audience.
Whilst watching Blackadder the audience see how life in the trenches was like. Living in the trenches makes the audience see how hard life was. The food looks revolting and eventually they ran out of food and have to use substitutes. An example of this is when Baldrick makes coffee from mud, saliva and dandruff this is comical for the audience but it is made better by Baldrick keeping a straight face in the process. This shows the audience just how frantic it was in the trenches and how far the soldiers were willing to go to for the necessities.
Joining the army could be seen as a noble thing to do, but, men would go to extraordinary lengths to escape, one of these men was Blackadder. He pretends to go insane. This shows the audience just how desperate he was to escape and was desperate to do anything. Another way the producer shows joining the army could be a noble thing to do, is when George is talking about his gang at school called the Trinity Tiddlers, Blackadder asks him how many of the group is left George replies none, this shows the audience the scale of deaths in the war.
