How accurate is blackadder goes fourths interpretation of ww1?

The television series Blackadder Goes Forth is not meant to be an accurate representation of World War I. Rather, it is a satirical comedy that uses the setting of the war to poke fun at the upper class and the British establishment. The show's creator, Richard Curtis, has said that he deliberately "bent" the facts in order to make the series more entertaining. As such, it is not a reliable source for historical information about the war.
