(More customer reviews)Tony Robinson's Cunning Night Out! is the uproariously funny DVD of a stand-up comedy performance by British television actor Tony Robinson, perhaps best known for his role of Baldrick in the hilarious British sitcom "Black Adder", and his infamous refrain, "I have a cunning plan!" Tony Robinson gives the snigger-inducing scoop on everything from the secrets hidden within common surnames (many last names indicate that our ancestors worked horrible jobs, such as "Kellogg", which can be traced back to hog butchering), to the creation of the "Maid Marian" television show (ostensibly a children's program but so popular that one college closed its bar when "Maid Marian" aired), to when Robinson worked with John Wayne and was literally pushed into a river of liquid filth as part of the shoot. Fans of "Black Adder" will not be disappointed; he gives plenty of hysterical anecdotes from the series, including one particularly raunchy "Black Adder" joke that never aired (because the actress was too mortified and refused to say the line)! Truly a laugh-out-loud viewing experience, seasoned with just a dash of history for personal enrichment, highly recommended for comedy lovers everywhere and a "must-have" for "Black Adder" fans. 83 minutes, widescreen, color.

"Tony Robinson is a god of history" -Eddie Izzard One of the UK’s most beloved performers, Tony Robinson has forged a career from making history humorous. He first shot to fame as the peasant simpleton Baldrick in the legendary comedy series Blackadder. Then came slightly more scholarly but highly entertaining efforts like the archaeology show Time Team and the documentary series The Worst Jobs in History. Using Baldrick-he of the "cunning plan"-as a reference point, Robinson careens through the story of his life and the course of history in a side-splitting one-man stage show. Packed full of hilarious tales, tender family stories, and amusing historical anecdotes championing the little guy, this smash hit performance sold out venues throughout the UK. It’s a riotous, rollicking, helter-skelter ride, from Robinson’s childhood debut as the Artful Dodger to Blackadder and beyond. DVD SPECIAL FEATURES: Q & A session with Tony Robinson, containing his favorite Blackadder moments and the possible future of the series, and "Any Old Iron" sing-along.
