Head (1986)

Tim McInnerny: Lord Percy

Quotes 

• [after seeing Percy's giant ruff] 

  Blackadder : You look like a bird who swallowed a plate Percy.

  Lord Percy Percy : It's the latest fashion actually and as a matter of fact it makes me look rather sexy.

  Blackadder : To another plate swallowing bird perhaps, if it was blind and hadn't had it in months.

• Lord Percy Percy : The fashion today is towards the tiny.

  Blackadder : In that case you have the most fashionable brain in London.

• Blackadder : I'm off to see the Queen.

  Lord Percy Percy : Oh, should I come too, my lord?

  Blackadder : No, best not. People might think we're friends.

• Lord Percy : Well, yes, My Lord, I mean, I hadn't meant to mention it but I have been wondering all along why you should think Baldrick with a bag on his head is going to be a dead ringer for Lord Farrow, because he's not!

  Blackadder : Look, cretins, the bag is there in order to obscure Baldrick's own features, and many might think, incidentally, that that would be reason enough for him to wear it.
