Romance With Kate
The bride stolen by Flashheart is Kate (known as Bob, played by Gabrielle Glaister), who spends most of the episode posing as a man to earn money as Blackadder's valet. In Blackadder Goes Forth, Kate/Bob appears again, this time posing as a man in order to "do her bit" by serving in the Army. Bob also makes a brief cameo in Private Plane. Flashheart demonstrates his philosophy that "if you want something, take it," by calling her into the room and announcing to her that he wants something. She responds immediately by saying; "Take it," while pulling open her top. She then leads him out of the office, continuing the joke from Series Two. However, the chronologically-earliest Flashheart's Kate (that is, Kate Moss's character Maid Marian) being stolen by the chronologically-latest Edmund Blackadder in Back & Forth.

Famous quotes containing the words romance and/or kate:
“Harvey: Oh, you kids these days, I’m telling you. You think the only relationship a man and a woman can have is a romantic one.
Gil: That sure is what we think. You got something better?
Harvey: Oh, romance is very nice. A good thing for youngsters like you, but Helene and I have found something we think is more appropriate to our stage of life—companionship.
Gil: Companionship? I’ve got a flea-bitten old hound at home who’ll give me that.”
—Tom Waldman (d. 1985)
“O slanderous world! Kate like the hazel twig
Is straight and slender, and as brown in hue
As hazelnuts, and sweeter than the kernels.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
