<p>This festive episode of <em>The Problematic Gaze Podcast</em> decks the halls with sarcasm as we revisit <em>Blackadder’s Christmas Carol</em> (1988). Swapping Dickensian gloom for yuletide jokes, unexpected kindness, and plenty of seasonal silliness, we explore why this one-off special has become a cult Christmas favourite. From time-travelling spirits to Rowan Atkinson at peak comic charm, this is a warm, witty celebration of Christmas television—proof that even Blackadder can discover the joy of goodwill (with a smirk). Grab a mince pie and join us for a merry stroll through one of the BBC’s most beloved Christmas treats. 🎄</p><p><a href='https://linktr.ee/theproblematicgaze'><b>Click here to follow us on all our socials</b></a></p><p>Please leave us a review wherever you get your podcasts.
