Flash by name...Flash by nature!


Brilliant performance.
Terrible news about Rik Mayall...

‘Flash by name. Flash by nature!’ Rik Mayall’s appearance as the swashbuckling Lord Flashheart in the closing minutes of the Bells episode of Blackadder II must rank as the most energetic, hilarious and bawdiest small screen comedy cameo in living memory. And while Blackadder is now long gone, Flashheart is now back on our screens. Sort of.
Bursting into the Royal chambers, Edmund’s old chum and prospective best man Flashheart makes a huge impact, flirting obscenely with almost the entire wedding party before stealing the prospective bride Kate (aka ‘Bob’) from under Blackadder’s nose.
