Image:Blackadder II - Money.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Are we certain that the Balladeer (Tony Aitken) from the episode, "Money", is called Tom? I thought the Bishop's real name (in character) was Tom, since it was the Bishop who had the cough as he exited the scene. "Poor Tom's cold! Pity poor Tom, for his nose is frozen, and he does shiver, and he's MAD!"
Further, on the Tony Aitken article, there is a reference to the Blackadder Hall website. An archived version of this website makes mention of the Balladeer as being "Tom the Mad Beggar", however, I find this citation questionable. Firstly, it appears to be a fan-made site rather than someone actually connected with the Blackadder series or the BBC (Mad Gerald was a character played by the now deceased Rik Mayall, but makes no mention of the actual person behind the persona). The Blackadder Hall website is still live, though the website presently has an austere appearance.
In short, I find the source material lacking in authority necessary to validate the claim that "Tom" was the Balladeer referencing himself instead of the Bishop.
