Rowan Atkinson

English writer/actor Rowan Atkinson
To watch some of his shows is just plain fun

while his Mr. Bean is a bumbling idiot

Sort of like, the dichotomy in all of us. Brilliant, marvelous actor/entertainer.

I recognized his face but could not remember where I had seen him, then when I saw the whole body pic, I remembered the person who did the pantomimes. If this is for a contest, it reads like a good contender to me. Way to go. Sara K.

The one I liked most was his antics to change into swimwear only to realise the watcher was blind.

I've seen short clips of Bean, and they're funny, and short clips of Benny Hill, which seemed pretty stupid - lol.

Thanks. I think Bean is (was) England's best comedy show. I really disliked the one called Benny Hill. But then again , I have hardly watched any British sitcoms. Do you like Mr Bean?

I love the skit where he tries to change into swim trunks without ever showing himself naked in the process, and in the end , the one guy on the beach turns out to be a blind man who couldn't see Mr Bean anyway. It cracked me up when he got up and walked off with his cane
