If you’ve never seen this bit by Rowan Atkinson please
drop what you’re doing and spend the next four and a
half minutes to do so.
A classic by any standard, performed by a master comedian.
I prefer his Blackadder over his Mr. Bean character but the
latter spotlights his incredible physical skills, a vastly
underrated attribute in a comedian.
And there’s nobody better than Rowan!
His timing, facial expressions and body language really
make this a superb comedy sketch.
I play this on the show and I consider it to be one of the
very best that I have offer, even without the visuals.
I think Blackadder is the best he’s ever done but his
one man shows are a very close second, this being one of them.
Never saw it coming…
