Once again, Edmund Blackadder is jealous of his betters; in this case, the object of his envy is the Scarlet Pimpernel. Determined to prove himself as fearless and daring as that "damn'd elusive Pimpernel," Edmund heads to France (a country that makes him violently ill) to rescue aristocrats on his own. Meanwhile, Edmund's patron, the portly Prince Regent (Hugh Laurie), struggles in vain to put on his trousers. "Nob and Nobility" first aired on October 1, 1987. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
