Excuse reference to The Sun (hardly a journalistic standard-bearer, more a low-brow rag ) for reporting this possibly dubious, exclusive news.

" Rowan Atkinson told pals he’s ‘extremely excited’ about reboot of cult comedy Blackadder set in the modern era "

just say noooooooooooooooo

i recently watched a couple of episodes of amazon's rebooted rocky and bullwinkle and it was totally devoid of the elements that made the original '60s show so subversive and enjoyable.

No thanks. Some things are better left as they are. The end of series 4 was perfect. The one off specials etc all seem to be trying too hard and don't measure up.

I can't wait! A long break and plenty of time to work on new material by a group of talented blokes should lead to some great TV!!!
