The second episode of "The Black Adder" has our "beloved" Edmund in trouble as his lands are given to McAngus, his father's commander. Edmund will try to get rid of McAngus and get his lands back.
This second episode keeps the same structure of the first, with lots of humor and silliness permeating every frame of the episode, but it falls short of the greatness of the Black Adder's introduction that we had the chance to enjoy in the first episode. Atkinson's and everyone's acting is still really good and the timing for the jokes amazing (even though Brian Blessed shouts a little bit too much...), but the jokes are not as good and some moments feel way too long. The dialogue also lacks the bite of the previous episode, and some times falls into the juvenile (well, something normal in this series).
Nonetheless, "Born to be King" is another awesome proof of how funny this series was.
