Rowan Atkinson first came to the public's attention in the classic comedy series 'Not the Nine O'Clock News' in the late 1970s. His play on music hall mannerisms and a natural acting ability allowed him to achieve huge success in his next outing in 'Blackadder', one of the most popular comedy series every produced by the BBC. In the 1980s, in collaboration with Richard Curtis, he created 'Mr Bean' who became an international success, culminating in the 1998 film 'Bean - The Ultimate Disaster Movie'.
For this first ever in-depth biography of Rowan Atkinson's life and career, Bruce Dessau delves behind the comic mask to reveal a character far more complex than any of Atkinson's television creations.
