Hes an actor though telling a joke or a wind up in real life it is very hard to stay straight face

[@redstonecasey4713]

@@ivantheterrible6959 It's more than that. According to the special features for Blackadder, he NEVER cracked up or lost composure even once while shooting any of the four seasons. Compare that to the blooper reel for any other comedy show.

[@PrasantCroissant]

@@redstonecasey4713 Yes, he admits he doesn't have a loud laugh and just exhales from his nose. He's very technical about comedy and see's why things are funny rather than laughing at something funny. So he sticks to the script word for word for maximum effect.

Generally people remember An Actor with a character which they find to be more Fascinating and more Relatable to Them. It may be Sir Marlon Brando as Don Vito Corleone Or Sir Heath Ledger as the Joker Or Sir RDJ as the Iron Man and These are just to name a Few. But yeah,I do believe that Sir Rowan Atkinson should get Knighted ASAP for His Immense, Immeasurable and Incalculable Contribution in the Field of Art and Cinema.He deserves It.

This is genius stuff. This guy was an original's original.

Rowan should get far more credit than he does. He is one of a kind. I remember him doing 'Not The 9 o'clock News' in my early teens.

I wish there was a nobel prize for comedy. RA would undoubtedly be the 1st recipient.

[@BM-jy6cb]

I doubt it. It would likely be some third-rate diversity candidate.

The first comedy skits that I ever saw… What a gem he is … Funny that the world knows him as Mr. Bean. 😅😂😂

[@FloridaCroatianBballer]

Never knew he did standup before, now this is pure gold and puts him even on a higher pedestal for me. The guy is just a national treasure, he is like Basil Fawlty on steroids. 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👍🏻

40 min of smiling and laughing what great actor if he doesn't talk and what great comedian if he talk ❤️
