Inspiration at the Movies: Blackadder

May 28, 2010 by Deb Leave a Comment

“I have a cunning plan”
– Baldrick (Blackadder – pretty much every episode, 1982-89 & 1999)

And is it really ever very cunning? At any rate, Baldrick never stops coming up with ideas, no matter how often they’re thrown out, no matter how bad they really are. And he’s superbly optmistic about the outcome each time. He has such confidence it’s the right plan. Would that we could all be so optimistic in times of hardship. At least we take his lead and never stop coming up with ideas in our own lives.

So here’s to your next cunning plan!

Cheers & good shoot to you,
Deb
