Plot
In London, everybody is celebrating the return of Sir Walter Raleigh except for Lord Edmund Blackadder and Mrs Miggins, who is baking an enormous pie, going to court, Edmund finds Sir Walter telling everybody that it is suicide to sail around the cape of good hope, thinking of a plan Edmund tells everybody that he going to do just that. That night, Edmund recruits Captain Redbeard Rum to be his captain, discovering in the process that he has no legs.
Edmund also recruits Lord Percy Percy and Baldrick, Percy not wanting to go because of aquaphobia, admitting that he was savaged by a turbot as a child, Rum gets engaged to Nursie just before they set sail, Edmund then reveals that his plan is to go to France and pretend that they have been around the cape, however it soon emerges that Rum does not know the way to France. Eventually, they end up in Australia where Rum is killed and eaten by cannabils, the others keeping his beard for Nursie.
When they get back, they find that Queenie has gone off explorers and demands presents, Edmund gives Nursie Rum's beard, Queenie a boomerang and Sir Walter and Melchett a bottle of Baldrick's urine.
