General Blackadder

General Edmund Blackadder negotiates the corridors of Whitehall in never ending disbelief:

"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."

To those that serve:

Captain Blackadder: I didn't realise we had any battle plans.

General Melchett: Well, of course we have! How else do you think the battles are directed?

Captain Blackadder: Our battles are directed, sir?

General Melchett: Well, of course they are, Blackadder, directed according to the Grand Plan.

Wishing safe return to all what ever the Grand Plan might be.
