A rubber-faced comedian and actor, Rowan Atkinson is especially famous in Great Britain. He became a cult favorite in the British television series Blackadder, and an even bigger star in the series Mr. Bean. In 1997 a slapstick film version of Mr. Bean was an international hit. He frequently appears in small roles in big screen comedies, including Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994, with Hugh Grant), Rat Race (2001, with Whoopi Goldberg) and Love Actually (2003, with Liam Neeson).Rowan Sebastian Atkinson was born in Consett, County Durham in 1955.[3] His parents were Eric Atkinson, a farmer and company director, and his wife Ella May (née Bambridge), who had married on 29 June 1945.[3] His elder brother, Rodney Atkinson, is a eurosceptic economist who narrowly lost the United Kingdom Independence Party leadership election in 2000.[4][5]
