1
Nobody in comedy can bring the entire room to tears without saying a single word like Rowan Atkinson
2
This is Rowan Atkinson and his most funniest self
3
While most comedians spend their entire careers chasing the perfect punchline, Rowan Atkinson built a global empire by saying almost nothing at all.
4
But what most people don't know about Rowan Atkinson is that he's nothing like the characters he plays.
5
The man behind Mr. Bean is the complete opposite and almost unrecognizable in real life.
6
I probably enjoyed playing Mr. Bean the most because he's a character who's furthest away from my own character.
7
As a person, I don't like him at all.
8
I think he's very odd and pretty weird and not very nice.
9
Are you feeling any better?
10
No. Excuse me?
11
Oh!
12
Thank you!
13
Speaking of how unrecognizable he is, on The Graham Norton Show,
14
Rowan told the hilarious story of a stranger who walked up and swore he was the spitting image of Mr. Bean, with no idea he was talking to the actual man.
15
A few years ago, I was in a Land Rover parts department near Peterborough, the kind of place you find me on most Sundays,
16
and we were waiting for car parts.
17
I was standing around with a group of guys and I could see this guy doing that.
18
And he came up to me after a while and he said,
19
Excuse me, has anyone ever told you that you are the absolute spitting image of that Mr. Bean?
20
LAUGHTER And I said, well, actually, I am the actor who plays Mr. Bean.
21
And he said, I bet you wish you were.
22
LAUGHTER And they followed this bizarre conversation in which the more I tried to claim that I was the person
23
whom he thought I merely resembled, the less he believed me.
24
And I could tell after a
25
while I had to bring the conversation to a close because not only was he not believing me, but he was getting quite annoyed.
26
But nothing tops the moment when Rowan impersonated the legendary F1 commentator Martin Brundle to Martin Brundle himself,
27
while Brundle had absolutely no idea it was happening.
28
Lovely to see you, Rowan.
29
Enjoy the race.
30
And so you're cheering for the pole sitter, Mr Russell.
31
Well, thank you.
32
May the best man win.
33
Absolutely.
34
Mom!
35
Dad!
36
In one of the most iconic Mr. Bean scenes ever filmed, Rowan spent over a minute fighting to put on a swimsuit without ever removing his pants.
37
Years later, he recreated the entire bit live on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and brought the whole studio to tears.
38
So this is how to act with discretion and decorum on the beach.
39
you wish to change into a sewing suit
40
while you've got your trousers on and you've nowhere to hide behind
41
and then so what you do first take a chance
42
good luck to do this
43
so you do this take everything down like this trying to trying to maintain as much decorum as you can
44
Okay, like this.
45
And then, okay, so you're so fast, so good.
46
But this obviously, there appears to be a logical incongruity here where you can't...
47
Well, start with either leg, but it can be the right leg.
48
You start like this.
49
Gotta be just.. gotta be sweet.
50
Pull it out like this, like...
51
And then you can, there you are.
52
There you go, okay.
53
And then all you do is feed, feed the crowd.
54
Feed your love.
55
Take it then, baby.
56
See?
57
Feed it through.
58
Feed it through.
59
Alright, come on, settle down, please.
60
Answer your names.
61
Anus.
62
Arse bandit.
63
Bottom...
64
Clitoris. Where are you, clitoris?
65
Rowan has a rare gift.
66
He can make the most boring, ordinary moment in life and turn it into a comedy masterpiece.
67
This is how Mr. Bean shaves.
68
Okay, ready?
69
One shaver.
70
Okay, so you're here to audition for a part in the British Airways Safety Information video.
71
Can you just look into the camera and give your name please?
72
Oh Princess of Wales?
73
The man has more control over his face than most actors have over their entire body, and one raised brow from him lands harder than a five minute monologue.
74
I'm not really a very diligent writer, so I thought, I just stood in front of a mirror, to be honest, and I just started pulling faces, I mean for want of a better term,
75
and I just sort of, you know, was doing this... So...
76
I'm going
77
to go to the next one.
78
I can't do that!
79
When did the trouble start?
80
You see my stethoscope is bobbing to the throbbing of your heart.
81
From New Delhi to Darjeeling I have done my share of healing and I've never yet been beaten nor outboxed.
82
But her complaint has got me really foxed.
83
Can I see your tongue?
84
Nothing the matter with it, put it away please.
85
Oh, good evening, gentlemen.
86
No, no, no, that's no problem.
87
Come in, please.
88
Oh, no, come in.
89
No, no, no, that table is reserved.
90
It is also a table for two people.
91
Perhaps this table might be more suitable for nine.
92
Right, right, now, what would anybody...
93
Quiet, quiet, quiet, gentlemen, please, quiet.
94
What would anybody like to drink?
95
Right, now, what would anybody like to eat?
96
Um, oh, uh, it is a lamb dish, sir.
97
Yes, a marinated lamb in coconut with a cream sauce very nice no not hot
98
it is a medium spiced dish and anything else for starters just some poppadoms and salad and yogurt and shit.
99
Anyway, it was this story of a friend of mine who went to a party, a housewarming party.
100
This house had just been built and he'd been invited to and he was late.
101
He'd stayed late at work and he was rushing to this party.
102
He arrived at the party and suddenly realised this is the ultimate toilet joke.
103
But don't retune, please.
104
That he arrived at this party and he was desperate to go to the toilet
105
and in quite a big way he needed to go to the toilet.
106
So he went and he came
107
and he burst in the front door of the house and there was a door by the front door.
108
And he opened that door and sure enough it was a toilet.
109
And there was a toilet and he closed the door
110
and he locked it and he sat down and he relieved himself in the way that he needed to relieve him.
111
And he felt much better for it.
112
And then he realized that the house had not actually been quite completed.
113
And that the toilet was not actually connected.
114
There was no water going in and there was no drainage coming out.
115
And he'd left this significant calling card of his own.
116
And he sat there, and then he realized that it wasn't, in fact, it wasn't, it was a little office.
117
It was a little study that they'd just dropped the toilet.
118
It wasn't supposed to be a toilet at all.
119
And because it wasn't supposed to be a toilet, there was no toilet paper.
120
And he was there thinking, what the hell am I going to do?
121
And he rummaged around it in his briefcase, and he found some writing paper lying at the bottom of his briefcase, which is about the right sides, you know.
122
So he used the, you know, the writing paper, as you would wish to use, toilet paper.
123
And then he suddenly realised that it was his headed notepaper that he used.
124
It had his name, Richard Steiner, written across the top.
125
And he left the paper on top of what he left in the toilet.
126
And it was this fantastic way that, it was the least anonymous way you could have committed this heinous social crime.
127
You've probably realised by now, this is hell.
128
And I am the devil.
129
Now, murderers...
130
Over here, please.
131
Thieves, if you could join us.
132
And lawyers, you're in that way.
133
Would you like to come down there?
134
Yes, there's plenty of room.
135
If the hedge fund managers would just move along a time...
136
There you go.
137
The French.
138
Are you there? And the Americans.
139
If you'd just like to keep clear of that big space there,
140
we're reserving for a Mr. Trump. And Christians.
141
Christians?
142
Yes, I'm sorry.
143
I'm afraid the Jews were right.
144
Thank you, man.
145
That would be lovely.
146
Thank you, man.
147
Knock, knock.
148
Who's there?
149
Death.
150
Death?

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
