Blackadder:
[about the Scarlet Pimpernel] What has this fellow done, apart from pop over to France to rescue a few aristocratic toffs from the ineffectual clutches of some malnourished, whinging lefties, taking the opportunity while there, no doubt, to pick up some really cheap wine and some of their marvellous fruit flans?! Has everyone forgotten?! We hate the French! We fight wars against them! Did all those men die in vain on the fields of Agincourt?! Was the man who burnt Joan of Arc simply wasting good matches?! [the bell for service rings] Ah, his Royal Highness, the Pinhead of Wales, summons me. And you know, I almost feel well disposed towards him today. Utter chump though he may be, at least he's not French!
