"There were no bloopers on this program. There were however brief instances of temporary misremembrance on the part of the actors, who, under the considerable strains imposed by performance on front of a live audience, not to mention the commission to memory of a series extensive, complex, and detailed verbal interchanges, and without direct recourse to the carefully prepared official documents - that is to say, in other words, the script - as is necessary for the preservation of the dramatic illusion, occasionally found themselves momentarily unable to recall, or indeed on alternate occasions prone to misrecall, the fullness of the text as it was intended to be delivered - such instances naturally having as their inevitable concommitant a humorous effect on the attendant audience and indeed the actors themselves, all of whom, appropriately accustomed to uninterrupted and precise delivery of lines by performers generally accepted as superlative, derived from the incongruity between the typical and reliably smooth performances and their occasional misexecution a considerable degree of amusement, most aptly expressed through laughter, and which with the benefits of hindsight provide an additional facet to the comedic subtleties of the program. But I can with great confidence assure you there were no bloopers!" - Sir Humphrey Appleby

Even when they aren't acting, their facial expressions are marvelous. They say great actors bring a little bit of themselves into the role, and watching this, I believe them.

One of the remarkable things is that Paul Eddington can almost read a script without saying a word, it's all done by expressions, body language , timing.

Bernard swearing at the beginning was funny it was like ''Bernard!'' and then Hacker calling him Bryan LOL. Nice to see the bloopers.

Derek screwed that scene up, because he wanted to have another drink. Too bad, there is no bloopers with The legendary Nigel messing up. But there is alot of times in the show where Nigel smiles

Nigel's reaction at 0:23 is so sweet

They stay in character. Pure class.

permanent private oh shit =)

It is amazing that such immaculately constructed dialogue was the subject of many, if truth be told, and not to put too fine a point on it, attempts at delivering such eloquent performances that, in the fullness of time, have proven to be classics that, if one were pressed, would say that they could not, all things considered, be repeated.

Will never be forgotten by all of us that we're fortunate enough to witness their talent X 3. Britain's best comedy ever.

Sir Humph would never bloop.

Hahaha Hawthorne’s very first scene 🤣🤣🤣

What a brilliant show. It never gets old.

Where did you find this? Can we please have some more?

Brian?

I'm Brian and my secretary is Brian too!

I wonder why these have not been in any DVD release

Thanks so much.....so lovely...

More more more

You won't find Eddington making many mistakes.

I want more ! *begging*

thanks for share ^ ^

@shineydaytildeath It was Bernard.

Very funny, thank you for this. May we have more? It is a shame their all dead now.

They should have kept these in, theyre funnier!

3?!

It had live audience

The show was great and funny, even the bloopers are funny. Too bad that they only did 5 seasons only.....

Significant is the fact that so many episodes have only 42 seconds of bloopers. The actors were just too professional.

Only we never get to see those, so now we think all bloopers are side splittingly funny. (VERY rarely you can find the full studio tape that the final episode was cut from. Usually they don't even exist anymore. There's two blackadder episodes like that.)

THESE THREE And the TOP GEAR TRIO (the real ones) Should've had face off. Man the commentary would've been verbal masterpiece.

British shows aren't like your stupid American ones, they're always filmed in front of a live audience, so there's never been a need to announce it at the beginning in case someone thinks it's canned laughter. What were you saying about facepalm hmmm?

ummm. I'm not, and never have been, American. Yes, they often were (but not always) filmed in front of a studio audience, however canned laughter was often added over the top of studio reaction, as its often not loud enough (they don't mic the audience incase someone says something they don't want on the tape).
