Blackadder could return for 40th anniversary special
The show also featured Rowan Atkinson, star of the Mr Bean movies and who also played the lead character of Edmund Blackadder.
Blackadder first aired back in 1983 and lasted for 24 episodes across four series and has become a cult classic.
Speaking on Lorraine of Blackadder, Robinson said: "It's lovely really, it never palls because it just transformed my life.
"I was 38 by the time I did it but I was a child actor so I had been about a quarter of century in the business.
"Suddenly my whole life was transformed by the generosity of Rowan and the producer John Lloyd, who let me have all those little extra shots and lines."
