He's had more lines in this video than the entirety of Mr. Bean and all his Johnny English movies combined

His voice is so calming and he is one of the rare people who actually speaks carefully and precisely. Extremely smart. Always loved him.

He should get an honorary oscar, similar to Jackie Chan, for his decades of service in the comedy genre. From Mr Bean to Johnny English to Blackadder, he has made 3 whole generations laugh together. What a legend.

it's really hard to see our legends getting old

He's ageing yet he never gets old. I feel unbelievably grateful living at the same time as him.

Rowan Atkinson is a legend who without saying anything in a Mr. Bean sketch can make millions of people around the world laugh.

I like how he explains these characters like he didn't played them but was there with them in each scene like another person.

Absolute Legend. To put this into perspective: I've taught English in some quite remote and rural parts of Thailand. Even there, in the farm lands of South-East Asia, most of the kids are familiar with Mr. Bean. His comedic greatness has touched people around the globe, regardless of culture or language.

No-one ever mentions The Thin Blue Line when discussing his work. That series was hilarious.

The best MR. Bean bit is when he's trying to get asleep. So, he pulls out this big photo of lots of sheep to count. Of course he takes a shortcut by counting all the sheep down length and then by width. He puts the numbers in a calculator and mulitplies, and as soon as he sees the answer he passes out asleep! Genius whoever wrote that bit. 🤣

When I was diagnosed with chronic PTSD after the Irak war, the one person that would put me at ease/relaxed was Mr. Bean. His great movies would make me laugh so hard, that PTSD would be out of mind for weeks at a time. Love his work and his amazing acting career!

I'm from Bangladesh, and when I was a kid I used to see Mr. Bean continuously. It never gets old. Even now, everytime I see a clip of Mr Bean; I laugh like a child. He's a hero to us. To me. May Allah bless you our hero!❤️🇧🇩

I think Rowan Atkinson is such a legendary actor because of his objectivity. He can look at a plot, a scene, a character, or a simple concept and put himself in both the role of the observer, witnessing the event take place, as well as the actor, best portraying the idea at hand. He understands the difference in the discrepancies between something being funny or not and to what extent he has control over it.

Rowan Atkinson is probably the only actor I can't "figure out". He was explaining things the whole episode and I still feel like he is mysterious somehow. Anyway. Just a feeling. Thanks for the episode.

It's so weird to see Mr. Bean talk so flawlessly off-screen.😂

I still cannot go without watching Rowan Atkinson as Mr. Bean & the comic wit he presents. He is one of the most talented British actors of our time. His physical comedy cannot be equaled. I still watch his comic routines from the 90's and will never grow tired of them. Rowan Atkinson is a comic mastermind.

one of the biggest legends we have, love him.

I remember my mum telling me about being in an airport in China during her travels. In the waiting lounge, with hundreds of mostly Chinese people there, a big TV screen started playing Mr Bean. Most of the people were glued to the screen and laughing all the time. I was pleased that a different culture reacts to it the same as we would in English speaking cultures. I am sure any culture adores Mr Bean

I can't believe he's almost 70 - he looks AMAZING!! Also - i absolutely loved listening to him speak, haha, gives me a better idea of who he is as an actor. Comedy is extremely hard to do well - and he's left such a solid legacy! he definitely deserves some lifetime achievement award for his contribution! He's made some LEGENDARY characters!!

Back then, I only knew Rowan for his roles as Mr. Bean and Johnny English, but as I got to watch more of his content, I could see how greater he's in comedy beyond just slapstick, he can do literally EVERY type of humour and nail it to perfection.

Rowan Atkinson once gave a talk to my uni, he's honestly one of the most thoughtful and present people I have ever heard talk. He was also strongly averse to having his photo taken which struck me as strange, I suppose he really does inhabit his characters when he plays them, he's an absolute genius

The one where he talks about perspective in camera closeness really opened my eyes. Perspective is a huge role in knowing a story. Focusing on one thing is different from looking at the entire canvas. A lot of things can be learned from this. Mr. Atkinson, a living legend.

can't stop smiling watching him. such a great man. he's my childhood.

The contrast between the clarity of his IRL persona and that of the characters he plays is absolutely insane.

The scene of Johnny English tossing his coat out the window gets me every time. So dumb. Rowan Atkinson is a legend.

He's so well spoken, I could listen to him for hours

My god, this is the Charlie Chaplin of our time. Thank you Mr Rowan Atkinson for bringing Mr Bean and Johnny English to life. Can still remember scenes from Mr Bean movies. 😌 Glad we are all doing well and alive at these times

Blackadder was really cool in the way that all the characters remained there and more funny than before, while still moving on to a whole new period. Even with the newer actors playing some of the era-based roles, they were definitely a nice addition and nice to see some come back.

I love how unaffected by fame Rowan is, he really seems the same as some uncle you'd see at a family reunion except he's also an insanely great performer/actor. His diction is also so remarkable and impressive.

I love how he speaks more quitely but is so well spoken and distinguished. He's such an incredible actor to be Mr. Bean, a character so different from his own personality. Thank you so much for all the great childhood memories you brought with your outstanding acting, Mr. Atkinson :)

I love his eloquence, and the way his language and his accent sort of, you know, rolls off his tongue, thick and full. I admire Rowan Atkinson-alot!

I remember the first I saw "Mr. Bean" speaking during an interview very politely and quietly. I was shocked 😂 during all this years of my childhood, I watched him like he was my funny friend ! Indeed is a normal person, but sometimes what you saw during your young years just mark you in a weird way 😅

Blackadder will always, for me, the pinnacle of smart comedy.

Peak Mr. Bean will always be when he performed Chariots of Fire at the 2012 Summer Olympics opening ceremony. When I first watched that ceremony, seeing Rowan Atkinson on the piano when the camera zoomed up was the last person I expected so I lost it. It says a lot about a character when that character becomes a cultural icon. Mr. Bean truly saved the world, unleashing his wrath on one blue Reliant Regal at a time.

I loved Mr. Bean and Johnny English! I remember watching it since I was 8, I am 26 now and still watching it. Thank you sir for making my childhood so memorable.❤

He is so articulate, he chooses every word so meticulously and says them in a manner that fits the word. Most of the world know him for Mr. bean. But, his standup acts where he speaks a lot show a completely different side of his wide range of talents. And in Johnny English, it's almost as if he combines these two polar opposite 'not so much fond of speaking' and 'hilariously articulate' sides of his persona.

The man is a comedic genius, and an absolute stellar teacher

I will forever love his perfomance of Mr. Bean and Johnny English 😂😂 They really made my childhood!

He is one brilliant actor. He makes me laugh with every movie I watch. What a legend. Mr. Bean remains one of my favorite Britcom.

Mr. bean was a great show to put on for the oldies when I worked at a nursing home. It didn't matter what language the oldies spoke or if they were deaf as a doorknob, they could understand what was happening and laugh. One Italian lady would always be in a laughing fit while watching it, truly a great show!

I can listen to this man for hours. He always sounds like he knows what he's talking about, and his body language really appeals to me. He also comes across as a very clever guy, his alter ego Mr.Bean is the opposite of that. As a little boy ‘i’ve grew’ up with Mr.Bean, partly because my mother loved it. 25 years later I still can't get enough of it. Hopefully this sir will often appear on the silver screen.

4:50 JESSE WE HAVE TO SHOOT THE LAMP TO GO TO SLEEP

This man is a genius...♥️

Mr. Bean is probably my favourite composition part from an actor, ever.

Wow. This was actually very educational in a way. This man knows humor. He's always cracked me up as a child, but hearing him break everything down is something else. I would love to see him in a dramatic role. I'm sure he would do very well.

Until now, I've never heard Rowan Atkinson speak in his real self. Always the comic character who rarely speaks but amusing.

"Life is a tragedy in close up and a comedy in long shot." Brilliant words.

The Blackadder series is my favourite when it comes to Rowan Atkinson. He absolutely nailed that role.

The whole Blackadder show was GENIUS. So many incredibly talented comedians...Hugh Laurie, Emma Thompson, Stephen Fry etc. I mean the best of the best

Hands down one of the greatest most legendary actors of all time. His stuff is so re-watchable. If you haven't seen it, go look up his stand up from the 80's. Magic.

I like how he scholarly refer to previous works of other comedians in describing and relating them to his works. That's literally how you do academic literary review.

Love this man. His intelligence is admirable. Love the way he speaks. The words he uses. I wish I meet someone like him.

The mark of him as a true genius actor surely lies in his ability not only to play a variety of unique and creative comedic roles as he of course does but also his ability to play a totally different role such as Maigret. Hugely talented chap!

What a legend. I hope more people see Blackadder if they’ve seen Mr. Bean to understand how smart and versatile he is.

This guy is my favorite actor of all times, such an iconic funny character. The only actor who can nothing and still make people laugh. I love this guy. He should be in the hall of fame if he isn’t. He’s the Michael Jackson of movies, the Michael Jordan or movies. He’s legendary.

Blackadder Goes Forth is the most hilarious series I’ve ever watched. The episode with Gorgeous Georgina was brilliant.

67 years old and he just looks like a greyer version of how he did in his Mr Bean days. What a legend

Johnny English is one of the most underrated films of all time.

To me, he'll always be Mr. Bean no matter the movie he's playing or the different character names he's given... Such a legend 💯❤🔥🔥

A true legend. I can't ever get enough of watching his roles.

“A wonderful sort of weary cynicism about the world…” - A PERFECT summation of the brilliance that is Blackadder (and why it will always be funny throughout time). Blackadder is the embodiment of what comedy is.

From Mr. Bean to Mr. Bee..😂 Rowan is such a legend..

I would listen to him for hours. So articulate!

Blackadder is legendary. It belongs to a 'must see list' along with Fawlty Towers and Monty Python series.

what i love the most about Mr Bean, is that he single handedly proved that you don't need dialog to convey emotions. and this is evident in the Mr Bean's Holiday, because despite there being a language barrier between him and the boy (who only spoke French), he still manages to form a bond with him. Rowan Atkinson is a expert at portraying body language and making it funny.

5:09 The most tired and exhausted I have ever "Bean".

It's a truly pleasure to listen to him speak. Thanks for the episode!

I speak for all of us when I say that, we are ever so grateful, glad and happy for this mans contribution to cinema, film and entertainment! Thank you Rowan!

With Rowans's articulate and soft spoken nature, you would think he would be in more movies that highlighted those traits. Would love to see him do another genre unless this is actually his true passion in acting

Finally the person I've been waiting for this decade to return to spotlight! Rowan!

Could listen to Rowan all day

The way Mr. Rowan Atkinson talks is just pure. So Smoothing and relaxing. This man deserves everything he has I cannot see a world without this man.

Rowan Aktinson is one of the best funniest actors across the world. He saved me, with the depression i had and it always made me smile and put me in a good mood, when i was feeling really bad. Thank you Rowan❤️

As kids my cousins and I would always plug in mr bean dvd‘s and laugh together.

Aww, he's such pleasant, likeable and modest person - and super talented!!!

The great thing about Mr Bean was the clever (but bizarre) ways he'd get out of a situation or solve something. Also was rare to see silent comedy come back when it was all spoken by then.

6:16 this scene is very iconic to me when thinking about Mr. Bean.

Such a national treasure here in England ty Rowan for all your amazing work.

I have seen Mr. Atkinson stand up. Its legendary

10:58 _Take over for a Bough, would you, moment?"_ That got a solid laugh out of me.

*"I don't do introductions"* You don't need to. Everybody knows and loves you Mr. Bean!! I grew up watching Mr. Bean and till this day I always die with fits of laughter. Also I loved you in Thin Blue Line. I wish you did more episodes. That was a very funny series.

he is almost 70 and i still need 3 more johnny English installments

i’m from america so most if not all of my friends had zero idea of who mr bean was when i was a child. somehow my grandma came across mr bean tapes at a garage sale and bought them for us to watch at our family farm house which we visited almost every other weekend. those tapes hold some of my best memories. the mr bean show was our favorite tradition as kids, our aunts and uncles and cousins joining in on this. we never got tired or bored of them no matter how many times we would rewatch the same 4 tapes. since then a lot of our family has changed, my grandma passed away, i’m not in touch with many family members anymore, but those episodes hold so much meaning and memories to me. so grateful that my grandma stumbled upon some tapes of a random show called mr bean that i can one day pass down to my children so they can enjoy and laugh at the same things i once did :)

As a kid I of course loved his Mr Bean character and a show. But when I was around 15 my preferance changed from a gag humor of Mr Bean towards the social dissection in the Blackadder series. Rowan Atkinson knows comedy. Period.

0:51 I can't with the cutscream lol

We are so lucky that we are born in Mr. Bean era ❤

Came back to this video to watch him say "No I don't do idents" again. Pure class.

Blackadder had the advantage of also starring Stephen Fry, in the last 3 series, Hugh Laurie in the last 2, and several cameos from Rik Mayal. Tim McInerny and Tony Robinson were in every series as well.

A good comedian makes people laugh with words. This man literally does it with his facial expressions.. Absolutely amazing.

I used to love watching the Mr. Bean tv series when I was growing up, and I have always loved his performance.

Rowan atkinson is most loved Britisher ever❤

What makes Mr. Bean so special is that it is a timeless show that we can still watch in any platform. Also, to know the amount of effort that he puts to it just to make it easier for the background crews shows how special of a project it is to him. An idea of an alien being thrown in Earth (which you can see in the introduction of every episodes) and the execution of ideas of how to make every movement funny and engaging, even the people around mr. Bean that was seem unpleasant to those people makes it even funnier yet relatable because if I am the one who will be sitting with Mr. Bean, i will also react the same way. 😂😂 but really, mr Bean is the definition of hard work pays of. It doesn’t need to look cool or great than the other, we the viewer won’t know the amount efforts you put into it nor we’ll be able to see the execution of every takes in it since I born on the 2000s. Thank you for being my childhood hero whether it’s the real adaptation or the animated version, the shows will always earn into my hearts and minds and sooner if I’ll be having my own kids, I’ll bingewatch the entire show with them!! 😭😭😍😍💕

No one gave us awesome childhood memories like Rowan Atkinson.🙌🏼 Absolute legend!

Rowan Atkinson make my child hood happy man i miss the olden days.

This contempt with which he says Baldrick at 8:05 is priceless

‘The Blackadder’ is absolutely brilliant! The wit and historical comedy was so beautifully written and performed.

I've watched the Blackadder series so many times that I know whole chunks of dialogue. And yes, I still fall about laughing 🤣

He's a legendary actor with impeccable comic timing, look forward to his upcoming work

He actually has such a nice voice, very well spoken and it makes me happy hearing him talk about mr bean

3:16 I like how at the start he said he doesn't do introductions. So you just went ahead and cut Mr Bean and all the others when he was talking about it lol.
