Wellington : NEVER! There's only one way to win a campaign shout, shout and shout again. Blackadder : You don't think that inspired leadership and tactical ability have anything to do with it? Wellington : NO! It's all down to shouting. WAAGGHH!
[Blackadder is informed that a German spy is stealing battle plans] General Melchett: You look surprised, Blackadder. Captain Blackadder: I certainly am, sir. I didn't realise we had any battle plans. General Melchett: Well, of course we have! How else do you think the battles are directed? Captain Blackadder: Our battles are directed, sir? General Melchett: Well, of course they are, Blackadder, directed according to the Grand Plan. Captain Blackadder: Would that be the plan to continue with total slaughter until everyone's dead except Field Marshal Haig, Lady Haig and their tortoise, Alan? General Melchett: Great Scott! Even you know it!
