In 1648, Sir Edmund Blackadder, descendant of Prince Edmund Plantagent and currently the sole member of the noble dynasty, is one of two people who stayed loyal to King Charles I after Oliver Cromwell's threat, the other being Baldrick, descendant of a pig farmer and a bearded lady. To protect his liege, Sir Edmund has hid the king (the series has already proven to us that the royals are insane) in Blackadder Hall, but Baldrick unwittingly betrays the ruler when Cromwell arrives at the Hall. Blackadder decides he must save the king when he is sentenced to execution, and becomes frustrated when Baldrick cluelessly accepts a job as executioner- until he realizes he may be able to use it to save Charles...

The entire cast of Blackadder appear together in a documentary for the first time as they mark 25 years of cunning plans and dastardly deeds. The show includes an exclusive in-depth interview with Edmund Blackadder himself, Rowan Atkinson, the first time he has agreed to be interviewed about his experiences making the show. Also reflecting on their time on the show are other key members of the team, including Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie, Tony Robinson, Rik Mayall, Ben Elton and Richard Curtis.

Blackadder: A Cunning Story takes a look back at the making of the entire Blackadder series to commemorate its 40th anniversary, featuring contributions from Blackadder's biggest fans including Jack Whitehall, Darren Harriott, Sarah Hadland, Ardal O'Hanlon and Nina Wadia.

本片为《黑爵士》系列电视剧1988年拍摄的43分钟特别篇， 灵感来源于查尔斯·狄更斯的经典名作《圣诞颂歌》。 　　《圣诞颂歌》写于1843年，讲述了一个在圣诞前夜，普通人Bob Cratchit、 Tiny Tim以及一群幽灵最终感化了坏脾气的吝啬鬼 Ebeneezer Scroog，并教给他圣诞节的真谛的动人故事。本片则恰恰相反，说的是维多利亚女王时代，布莱克爱德家族中的“黑马”：大善人 Ebeneezer Blackadder和他的仆人Baldrick 如何在度过的一个不平凡的圣诞夜之后，变成大恶人的故事。前三季的主要演员均有精彩亮相。
