Sense and Senility

Synopsis: Comedy series. Prince George is worried about his popularity after an anarchist throws a bomb at him. He agrees to recite a brilliant speech by Blackadder, "to show the oppressed masses how unusually sensitive you are" and decides that he wants his two favourite actors - Mr David Keanrick and Mr Enoch Mossop - to coach him. In one scene the actors haughtily enter in the middle of a conversation. -
Mossop: ...lest you continue in your quotation, and mention the name of the Scottish play.
Keanrick: Oh-ho-ho... never fear, I shan’t do that.
Blackadder: By the Scottish play, I assume you mean Macbeth.
Mossop, Keanrick: Aaah!
[The actors launch into a bizarre "pattycake" routine while reciting...]
Mossop, Keanrick: "Hot potato, orchestra stalls, Puck will make amends."
[... and finish by tweaking each other’s noses.]
Mossop, Keanrick: Aaah!
Blackadder: What was that?
Keanrick: We were exorcising evil spirits. Being but a mere butler, you will not know the great theatre tradition that one does never speak the name of the Scottish play.
Blackadder: What, "Macbeth"?
Mossop, Keanrick: Aaah! "Hot potato, orchestra stalls, Puck will make amends." Aaah-haa!
