I really love Mr Bean! I grew up with the series.

We also used to watch Mr. Bean, the no-words shows. I was never appealed to the animation but my students would watch it in the Netherlands!

@5:50 kinda the actor James Cromwell

Oh, god! You are talking about the best actor ever, he is the only one who make humor, no matter if you speak English and no matter where you are. The truth is he is exaggerating the role but, he caricature the British society in a funny way!!

Mr Bean is a hugely popular character here in Sri Lanka

Mr Bean might be relatable across many languages and cultures, but I’ve always thought it was just a bit naff. Blackadder on the other hand…genius…and it gets better as it goes on. Not the nine o’clock news is also worth looking up.

Well said Patrick! That last series of Blackadder led the way to other great comedies with a central heart

Yes

We laugh at his bumbling messes and in doing so we laugh at ourselves🙃

I really really like Mr Bean, I have laughed a lot with him. He was pretty famous some years ago, maybe a little less famous now, but I continue to enjoy his humour anyway. Does Mr Bean represent the British? Well, the opening ceremony for the Olympics was starred by the Queen, 007, and Mr Bean, so I'd say, for the rest of the world, yes.

I forgot that he was in the Olympic ceremony. So funny to include him, did they also have a segment devoted purely to fish and chips too that I forgot?

I like very much Mr bean .. he is a great artist .. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

I am autistic and I don't feel offended by Mr. Bean at all. Some of his shorter films I think are funny. I don't like the longer ones. They are kind of boring and not too funny.

Mr Bean is very famous in Brazil, I like his humor that he doesn't speak and is understood anywhere. What is the name of this place you recorded?

Mr. Bean is known here in Egypt yet he isn't my cup of tea, I find him a kind of exaggerated but this may be due to cultural differences. I'm currently watching a series called "Dad's Army", it makes me laugh a lot and teaches me about British culture during WWII, what I like about it is how the actors behave naturally yet they're very funny, sometimes it's their over seriousness in telling silly stuff that makes me laugh 😃 Also as a former soldier I relate to a lot of the funnies of militray life 😆

Great use of the word plonker! Never heard it outside of “Only Fools…”

For me, Mr. Bean is a quite funny character.

When I was a kid, I saw also the Mr Bean und my mum has said me, that it is really stupid. But I probably see him when I am 28 years old LOL

There are many candidates but one of the unfunniest comedies!! Given Rowan Atinson in Blackadder was one of the best programmes ever, quite hard to take in!! 🤔😁

I like Mr. Bean and his exaggerations but it seems Brits prefer Blackadder. I never watched this series - now I'm curious. :D

I really recommend Blackadder, very different to Mr Bean, but fantastic writing and features Hugh Laurie, Stephen Fry and many other great, British celebrities and actors. My favourite series is the last one, based on WWI

I like Rowan Atkinson but not keen on Mr Bean ,I know kids/children like the slapstick visual humour he uses though !

Mr.Bean is a universal character and this sort of types can be seen all around world like Charlie Chaplin therefore, his character is not unique I mean is not just relevant with British humour. This type silly things humour are for Boomer generation. For most new generation is not funny at all.
