I would rate this episode with 20/10 stars if possible. The final dialogue between Blackadder and Baldrick is by far the best antiwar message on film I' ve ever seen. All the previous episodes are leading to this climax. Even the fact that Hugh Laurie's character finally admits of being afraid of going over the top is magnificent. Plus Captain Darling finally being on the front line side by side with Blackadder.
The final scene with the poppy fields reminds us of the famous poem and by itself makes tears run down our cheeks for all those brave people on both sides, since none of them was responsible for the war.
