Mr. Bean'  crashes his $1 million supercar


This was one of the biggest crach accident that Aktison had.
Aktison was driving his 1 million dollar car McLaren f1 which stopped at 230 miles per hour. This was one of his most expensive car he had. 

Rowan Atkison: Goodbye, Mr Bean?


"I suddenly think the job of acting is a difficult one,” says Rowan Atkinson. “It’s not as flip, irrelevant and shallow a calling as I thought it was in the Eighties.”
Atkinson, who is preparing to make his “straight play” debut as the lead in Richard Eyre’s West End revival of Quartermaine’s Terms by Simon Gray, is globally famous for playing an absent-minded, middle-aged buffoon who says next to nothing. He’s also notorious for giving away as little of himself as possible: an interviewer once reported he was so reluctant to disclose anything about his family he refused to acknowledge the existence of his children. (For the record, he has two, Lily and Benjamin, with his wife, Sunetra.) So, ahead of a rare interview with him in a London members’ club, I’m unsure what to expect.
My trepidation is increased by the fact that I grew up when Atkinson was lending his malleable features and gift for physical humour to two of the defining television comedies of the Eighties: Not the Nine O’Clock News and Blackadder. He ranks as one of the true greats of British comedy, his status cemented by the enduring power of the material that propelled him to prominence in the late Seventies and early Eighties. In 1981, at the age of 26, he became the youngest performer to have his own production in the West End, a self-titled revue show for which he won an Olivier award.
In the three decades since, his two studies in the art of bumbling masculinity – Mr Bean and Johnny English, the Bond-spoof inspired by his lucrative ads for Barclaycard – have made him fabulously wealthy (with an estimated fortune of £71 million) and recognised around the world. His triumphant appearance this summer in the Olympics Opening Ceremony, where he clowned around while continually hitting the same key of a synthesizer during the London Symphony Orchestra’s mock-magisterial rendition of the theme-tune from Chariots of Fire, rubber-stamped his status as a national treasure.
Is he grand, awkward or aloof as a consequence of all this success? Answer: none of the above. In person Atkinson is only too happy to chat. Dressed in jacket, shirt and jeans and with his glasses removed for the conversation, he could hardly look more unassuming; only his inimitable way of knitting his eyebrows or rolling his eyes slowly from side to side in contemplation gives one flashes of the facets that he so often exaggerates in performance.//telegraph.co.uk


Mr. Bean retires at 21

Having first appeared in a 1990 New Year’s Day radio program for Thames Television, Mr. Bean is officially retired. Rowan Atkinson, the British comedy great that brought the character to life believes he is too old to play the Buster Keaton-like character any longer. Having last played the lovable legend in the 2007 film, Mr. Bean’s Holiday, the 56 year-old Atkinson finally sees a distinction between himself and his creation. While he has always described Bean as ageless and timeless, Atkinson has come to the conclusion that he clearly is not.//tellyspotting.org

Background Of Mr. Bean


Mr. Bean, the renowned British comedy television series, starring the master of comic antics Rowan Atkinson in the lead, was first aired on television on January 1, 1990. This television series kicked off with 14 half-hour episodes, penned by Rowan Atkinson, Robin Driscoll, Richard Curtis and Ben Elton. Mr. Bean was conceived as an upshot of Rowan Atkinson's stage revues of the 1980s, which featured the silent odd-ball and since then, it has been one high ride for the comic sitcom that has added many prestigious awards and honors to its name, some of which are the International Emmy and the Golden Rose of Montreux.
Mr. Bean mainly featured the various exploits of the title character, his everyday problems and his hysterical quick-fix solutions to them. The character of Mr. Bean was conceived by Atkinson, during his tenure in the Oxford. In the early eighties, Atkinson took up a storm in the comedy world with his various revues and even acted in sitcoms, thereby paving way for the emergence of Mr. Bean. During one of his shows in a comedy festival in the year 1987, Atkinson insisted that he would rather perform on the French-speaking bill than the English-speaking program. This puzzled the co-coordinators who failed to understand the bizarre demand of Atkinson then. Later it was understood that Atkinson just wanted to use the festival, as a platform to see how the theatrics of the silent character went down with a non-English speaking audience.
You will be interested to know that a considerable amount of thought process went into deciding a name for the show. Initially, the show was supposed to be produced as ‘Mr. Cauliflower’, before the makers zeroed down on ‘Mr. Bean’, as the title of their ambitious enterprise. As per sources, Atkinson is said to owe much of Mr. Bean’s character to comic character Monsieur Hulot. ‘Mr. Bean’ is indeed one of its kinds of comic sitcom that purely relied on the silent hysterics of Atkinson, with little or no dialogues to the actor’s advantage. And this is what was believed to be the main USP of America’s much loved comic sitcom. This show which ruled the charts for five years, before going off-air on 1995, boasted of a whopping audience of 18.74 million all over USA.//lifestyle.iloveindia.com
