Black Adder's Christmas Carol Blackadder's Christmas Carol (1988) 

Jim Broadbent plays Prince Albert   Also starring Rowan Atkinson, Tony Robinson, Miranda Richardson, Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie, Robbie Coltraine, Miriam Margolyes, Patsy Byrne, Nicola Bryant

"Humbug anyone?"

Plot Summery:  A parody of Charles Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol' in which Ebenezer Blackadder is a kind and lovely man who 'never laughs at toilet humour' and hasn't a harsh word to say about anybody.  But after a visit from a ghost who shows him some of the things his ancestors got up to, and how they benefited from it, he becomes more akin to his predecessors.

Patrick's comments: With ridiculous German accent, Jim plays Prince Albert when he and Queen Victoria visit the home of Ebenezer Blackadder.  First shown on TV at Christmas 98, this is a very amusing one-off special to add to your Blackadder collection.
