INTRODUCTION

Rowan Sebastian Atkinson (born 6 January 1955) is an English actor, comedian, and screenwriter who is best known for his work on the sitcoms Mr. Bean and Blackadder. Atkinson first came to prominence in the sketch comedy show Not the Nine O'Clock News (1979–82), and via his participation in The Secret Policeman's Balls from 1979. His other work includes the sitcom The Thin Blue Line (1995–96).

He has been listed in The Observer as one of the 50 funniest actors in British comedy and amongst the top 50 comedians ever, in a 2005 poll of fellow comedians.He has also had cinematic success with his performances in the Mr. Bean movie adaptations Bean and Mr. Bean's Holiday and in Johnny English and its sequel Johnny English Reborn.

EARLY LIFE & EDUCATION Atkinson, the youngest of four brothers, was born in

Consett, County Durham, England. His parents were Eric Atkinson, a farmer and

company director, and Ella May (née Bainbridge), who married on 29 June 1945.His three older brothers were Paul, who died as an infant, Rodney, a Euro sceptic economist who narrowly lost the United Kingdom Independence Party leadership election in 2000, and Rupert .Atkinson was brought up Anglican, and was educated at Durham Choristers School, St. Bees School, and Newcastle University. In 1975, he continued for the degree of M.Sc in Electrical Engineering at The Queen's College.

First winning national attention in the Oxford Revue at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in August 1976.

BEAN IN TELEVISION Rowan Atkinson in 1997,

promoting Bean After university, Atkinson toured with Angus Deayton as his straight man in an act that was eventually filmed for a television show.

Atkinson then went on to do Not the Nine O'Clock News for the BBC, produced by his friend John Lloyd.

The success of Not the Nine O'Clock News led to him taking the lead role in the medieval sitcom

Atkinson's other creation, the hapless Mr. Bean, first appeared on New Years Day in 1990 in a half-hour special for Thames Television.

BEAN IN FILMo Atkinson’s film career

began with a supporting part in the 'unofficial' James Bond movie Never Say Never Again (1983) and a leading role in Dead on Time (also 1983) with Nigel Hawthorne.

o His television character Mr. Bean debuted on the big screen with Bean (1997) to international success. A sequel, Mr. Bean's Holiday (2007) also became an international success.

He appeared in Mel Smith's directorial debut The Tall Guy (1989) and appeared alongside Anjelica Huston and Mai Zetterling in Roald Dahl's The Witches (1990). He played the part of Dexter Hayman in Hot Shots! Part Deux (1993), a parody of Rambo III, starring Charlie Sheen.

Atkinson gained further recognition with his turn as a verbally bumbling vicar in Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994) and featured in Disney's The Lion King (also 1994) as the voice of Zazu the Red-billed Hornbill.

Atkinson continued to appear in supporting roles in comedies, including Rat Race (2001), Scooby-Doo (2002), Love Actually (2003) and the crime comedy Keeping Mum (2005), which also starred Kristin Scott Thomas, Maggie Smith and Patrick Swayze.

BEAN AS A COMEDIAN Comedic style Best known for his use of physical

comedy in his Mr. Bean persona, Atkinson's other characters rely more heavily on language.

One of his better-known comic devices is over-articulation of the "B" sound, such as his pronunciation of "Bob" in the Black adder II episode "Bells".

Atkinson's often visually based style, which has been compared to that of Buster Keaton, sets him apart from most modern television and film comedies, which rely heavily on dialogue, as well as stand-up comedy which is mostly based on monologues.

Atkinson often plays authority figures (especially priests or vicars) speaking absurd lines with a completely deadpan delivery.

Atkinson suffers from stuttering, and the over-articulation is a technique to overcome problematic consonants.

This talent for visual comedy has led to Atkinson being called "the man with the rubber face": comedic reference was made to this in an episode of Black adder the Third ("Sense and Senility"), in which Baldrick (Tony Robinson) refers to his master, Mr. E. Black adder, as a "lazy, big-nosed, rubber-faced bastard".

PERSONAL LIFE

Rowan Atkinson first met Sunetra Sastry in the late 1980s, when she was working as a make-up artist with the BBC.

Atkinson came to him one day and asked if he could swap make-up artists because he wanted to ask Sastry out, 'all idea of [his] asking out Sunetra left [him]'.Fry was best man at Atkinson's wedding in 1990. Atkinson was formerly in a relationship with actress Leslie Ash.

RETIREMENT OF

MR.BEANIn November 2012 it emerged that the character of Mr. Bean will not be performed again. "The stuff that has been most commercially successful for me – basically quite physical, quite childish – I increasingly feel I'm going to do a lot less of," Atkinson told in The TELEGRAPH Review.

“Apart from the fact that your physical ability starts to decline, I also think someone in their 50s being childlike becomes a little sad. You've got to be careful.”
