The end credits for the final episode are abrupt. After we see Blackadder
and co. go over the top to their deaths, the music goes to a slow, mournful
rendition of the main theme, and the scene shifts slowly to a shot of a
real-life WWI trench, as it appears today -- a poppy-decked hill with the
trench only barely visible. There is no ending credit roll, and instead,
the Blackadder Goes Fourth logo and the BBC logo and copyright date appear
unobtrusively in a corner.
The production crew credits at the end are formatted to look like military personnel rolls. Each crew member is listed with a cryptic abbreviation of their job title (as if it were a military rank), a serial number, last name and first initial. For example, production designer Chris Hull is listed as "Dgr. 404371 Hull, C" and makeup designer Caroline Noble is credited as "M/U Dgr. 862641 Noble, C".
