Lord Flashheart

[inksplotter]

Were women attracted to this character? Or did they just think he was a pillock?

[inksplotter]

Cues loads of 'impressions' no doubt...

Who's Lord Flashheart?

[weecalf]

Was he in black adder ?

[treetops68]

Just come to me,I think it's the guy in the Bombadier adverts.

[DrFilth]

well bob fell for him

[woofgang]

it was a JOKE

[douglas9401]

That, or to give him his name, the late Rik Mayall.

[Arksided]

com on lady... Phwah!

[inksplotter]

A joke? In Blackadder?

No one has said they fancied him yet.

[B00]

As woofy has said it was a joke.

The character was supposed to be a caricature of what women were supposed to find attractive in a 'real man' at the time.

Do you mean in real- life? His character was a pillock, but meant to be.

[pixie373]

I quite fancied Rik Mayall for a while- but not as Flashheart.

The guy in the Bombardier ads was Rik Mayall, but not called Flashheart.

[inksplotter]

I think I mean the character.

[RATTER15]

Here he is, a real lady killer!!

I think the character in the beer advert may have been based on Flasheart but was also referncing Flashman - which maybe the original Flasheart was doing, but in doublet and hose.

[ChillDoubt]

His seduction technique is yet to be bettered.
RIP Rik.

His first attempt at the character lacked something:

Rik Mayall as "Mad Gerald" by psnodgegrass
