An actor who can play Blackadder, Maigret, Mr. Bean, the archbishop of Canterbury and so many others is simply a genius!c
Poirot?
Paul Gabolinscy I meant Maigret, not Poirot. Sorry!
Not a genius, talented & versatile
Also the man who pulled the archbishop's pants down.
Well, he has a master degree in electrical engineering...
the Archbishop of Banterbury
Doesn't seem qualified for anything more than the Bishopric of Bath and Wells
Arsch
Last year I unexpectedly met the ex-archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams and introduced him to my son and very, very nearly introduced him as Rowan Atkinson. He is a really nice guy.
Rowan Atkinson... comedy legend.
I wish all English speakers speak like him. English isn't my first language but when I hear him speak it's clear and fascinating tbh
He has a speech impediment that's why he spoke clear
Good point. He is clear and very easy to understand.
me too
The array of facial expressions he can pull off is astounding.
This guy is REALLY good, he should turn professional
I hope you were trolling
@@lucadynamo3758 he made a reference to this video from Rowan Atkinson as a vicar from like 6 years ago czcams.com/video/XbY8MH1TpEw/video.html
i guess you are the the most unupdated person of the world. Rowan Atkison is more famous than any marvel actor. get yourself updated
@@mandyhiman436 r/woosh
He's more than professional.
He's a GENIUS. ❤️❤️❤️
"Nevermore may you be Archbishop of Canterbury. Now go forth, sir, and meet thy Doom!"- Mother Superior, Blackadder I.
This is Rowan Atkinson getting back to doing what he does best, vicars. Haha
The highest form of adoration is imitation, thank God Archbishop Welby has a sense of humor...it kept me sane in the insane US...kudos
I join Anglican church of South Korea. And really like Rowan Atkinson as the Archbishop of Canterbury XD
All the best to the Anglican Communion& Mr.Rowan Atkinson ^^
“Do you, or do you not, have tattooed on your bottom the words, Jesus is coming, look busy?”
Are you insane
@@Lord_Skeptic “well, let’s find out, shall we?”
Alright, I was wrong about the Archbishop's bottom
As a retired Anglican priest, I fell over laughing. What a treat! Do you suppose Rowan (Williams, that is) put Rowan (Atkinson, that is) up to it? I'd love to think so. If there's one thing the dear C of E is good at, it's self-deprecation. Very healthy. Only a deadly-serious fundamentalist could take offence. Very sad.
Rowan W has a cracking sense of humour if so.
"While the Lord loves a cheerful giver, He will gradually accept from a grouch!"
Can this man get any more funnier. Such a legend deserves an Oscar award for God's sake ❤
why. the oscar doesn't mean shit anymore. its just another participation trophy.
Please don't insult him with an oscar nomination. It's the same as the nobel peace prize.
Im a christian and this is funny. I am also a huge Rowan fan. I agree , God does have a splendid sence of humor. Rowan Atkinson is not going to burn in hell because of this. God loves everyone unless they kill someone or hurt children or anything along those lines. God doesnt condemn people to hell for taking the mick , my fellow Chrissies need to loosen up a bit. He was doing it for charity forgoodnesake! The money made from Rowan fans sending in ££ after seeing this has saved childrens lives! Comic Relief is celebrities going out of their way , FOR FREE , to raise money for needy people -and that my friends , is loving spitit. Good souled celebrities raising money so african children can have a clean drink.
God Bless You Rowan Atkinson and all the other celebs who do their bit for Comic Relief , it is much apreciated.
From a huge Rowan fan and God cherishing (not fearing) christian. Peace be to the world.
P.S: Comic Relief is a good way of nit picking celebrities. The celebs who do contribute are caring , thaughtful people who do allot for charity and the celebs who never appear on CR are the pigs asshole ones who dont give a flying fuck about starving , abused or needy children.
How do you know God has a sense of humor? Seems to me that the man is quite stern and cruel who acts with the tendency to condemn all those who disobey him to eternal fire and damnation for acting out of their own free for refusing his Kingdom. So maybe your right, he does have a giggly spot in his black heart when he thinks of how his creation created in his own person is going to burn due to his own lovelingly prescribed gift of freedom and choice which is not really free at all but just a cruel joke on the part of this mad twat.
Um , Rowan isnt a mad twat. Dont be mean. And I do kind of agree with you that that is how the bible portrays him. But who says the bible is accurate? The bloomin book is over 1000 years old , do you really think nothing has changed lol? ;) allot changes in 1000 years. The bible was written in the manner it was because their was no Judicial system and no police. It was the only way to scare people into not breaking the law. God is real but he is nothing like he is said to be. And hell was just created to scare people in the days of no police , it is only a place for the sickeningly evil. Like Adolf Hitler , Jo Stalin , Jimmy Saville etc... No person like Rowan or yourself or myself would ever go their. Good people from all walms of life go to heaven. Good muslims , good Jews , good Sikhs. I am almost crtain that Rowan Atkinson and everyone I know and experience in my life have definately got nothing to worry about. They are destined for Heaven.
Good old cafetieria style faith. I don't like the idea of Hell, or Calvin's idea of Predestination, the Virgin Birth, Islamic Jihad ect. These books are either the word of God or they are not. Such mushy emcuminical outreaching is a complete waste of time if you are looking at Dogma, and it is exsactly this faith which will stem all human attempts at pragmatism with one another. I was not calling Rowan a twat, I love the man for his comedy I was referring to God, the big guy in the clouds.
Ok. I completely agree. The scriptures are old and outdated.
+Hannibal953able god does have a great sense of humor , the only thing is he laughs at our expense.
"One rip-roaring resurrection." :-)
Don't you mean rip roaring erection?
@@bartholomewchuzzlewit4356 bo, its resurrection
Rowan Atkinson is most well known for a character called Mr Bean. He's also played Johnny English. He's very funny & very well known in the UK & he also featured in the Olympics opening ceremony in 2012.
i love this guy
Rowan has had me in stitches for years. I would not want to ride in a lift with him. The doors would open. Rowan would get out . He would not have had to say a word, just use his expressions and gestures and I would be dead on the floor of the lift.
Thank you for a great little sketch!
I love Rowan Atkinson and this is no exception. People need to chill, especially with everything else going on in the world.
I feel like he's playing Stephen Fry playing a vicar.
Yeah sounds like Fry in the Theory of Linguistics sketches in Fry and Laurie.
I can see that, and (and I an Not being sarcy) as himself playing the vicar (you remember that sketch he did about the Church and gay people?). But really, it's quite a good impression of the 'Arch' himself - who isn't a bad man, quite the contrary, but does have to wrestle with being the head of a limp wristed Church desperately trying to persuade people get involved in a load of tosh by making excruciating attempts at being...wait .... ... "with-it".
He's playin' a dude, playin' another dude.
Fry is bipolar.
@@streaming5332 he has a split personality who has a split personality... oh wait that's Hugh.
Apparently this is the most complained about tv of the year (according to ofcom) who the fuck complained about this??? who ever complains to ofcom?
well, if "points of view" with good old terry wogan was anything to go by, though we must bear in mind that was several years ago now, it's busybody cunts with nothing better to do with their pathetic lives.
there will never be anyone with rowan atkinson's talents to spread warmth to the hearts of children and adults alike. thank you, on behalf of the world, mr. atkinson for all you have done
All these years I were lost and confused. Love your neighbor doesn’t actually mean shag your neighbor. Thanks for the clarification Archbishop.
A true legend of comedy! So effortless...
I remember the first time it came on TV, I was fourteen and it was just the funniest thing I'd ever seen.. 😂😂😁😁
Rowan's brilliance always shines through, no matter his role.
Incredible you Rowan!! Fantastic!! I am speechless!
Brilliant. Thats just class A acting and comedy.
Rowan Atkinson was brilliant here :) absolutely brilliant
My word what a brilliant actor.
I'm in love with his voice!!
Man I love this guy.
The Archbishop is so funny he should be in comedies🤫
This guy is a bloody legend !
That isn't offensive at all. People need to get their panties out of a bunch. I come from an Apostolic background, personally.
Not the first time Rowan's been tha A of C!
I don't think I know a more generous, thoughtful and utterly courageous man who dares to act utterly crazy, silly, and... confronting many of us who watch
As an excellent clown, Rowan Atkinson shows us the mirror of human being
I love this guy....brilliant
What a legend, Rowan Atkinson!
500 people complained. 5+ million people really enjoyed it and thought it was great.
I was ROFL at this, best thing on Comic Relief that night (Friday 15th March 2013) despite the offence it caused!!
The hand gestures are so well observed! for example at about 1.05. Do all vicars and reverands have special lessons in CofE hand gestures?
"love your neighbor as yourself" so i should hate my neighbor?! done![shakes a hateful fist at their house]
Thanks a lot! I was already continually confusing Rowan Williams with Rowan Atkinson. Now, the two Rowans just...merged.
what if I text NO to 70010?
Savage
Then you'll receive £ 10.
this skit is laden with sweet bits of wisdom
the Best archbishop ever seen
Perfectly encapsulated the Church of England today.
this was so good I had to watch it again
Excellent! Typical Rowan style. X¬D
Amazing this guy. He can do anything
"...keep on praying. It doesn't work, but it's a good part of the getting-to-sleep routine..."
XD
Well prayer does work actually.
Que voz linda!
Rowan Atkinson is the best epitome of the 'Church' of England.
Oh my... this make my day...
Mr. Bean would have watched this, but he’s still trying to get his new TV to work
Omg Rowan Atkinson the best
So, so good.
Yeah Jessica.
Zeff here.👍
Ah, it's good to see Edmund finally EMBRACING his role as the Archbishop of Canterbury; now all we need is that shot with him cavorting with Brother Baldrick and Percy, talking about their plans to sell curses, pardons, and cast replicas of famous religious person's body-parts.
second time as the Archbishop of Canterbury.... one more time and it becomes permanent
He got the job by saving England and pulling the last archbishop's trousers down.
im laughing loud again,his making faces,very talented man
People who complained to Ofcom about this clip should watch Frankie Boyles Tramadol Nights. I think they'd find that much more to their liking ;)
x
Anyone els thinks that this is a perfect copy of Jim Broadbent ? amazing
I'm an Anglican. That was hilarious (see I'm not offended at all, Jesus has a great sense of humor). But seriously, that was great.
The man is brilliant.
He's a great actor
I am getting that chair for my smoking room 😊
This...this is what we all foreigners thought English people sound like. And then we visited...
Soooooooo gooooooood
Prayer does work!
If you're praying in order to change God's mind, it's no surprise it doesn't work.
On the other hand, if you're praying to change your own mind, then you might have some success.
Robert Lawton but praying just cements you in the same old way of thinking I found. It's once you stop praying that you start thinking more freely and opening your mind
If you have to pray to change your mind,
i prefer not to know what's on your mind.
If it offends people, it makes me like it more.
Very old school Atkinson... not that that's a bad thing, he's past master of the slightly creepy pastiche of slightly creepy priests.
This was nothing short of hilarious.
Hilarious as usual Rowan!

For those of you offended by this, I quote the great Stephen Fry:
"So f*cking what?"

Where is baldrick and Percy to assist him? :->
I've never enjoyed John Cleese but love Rowan's work.
This i brilliant 👏 . Never know this character 😂. Absolutely brilliant. Brilliant just brilliant. The f word ha brilliant.
Knew a priest that would say fork.
@@neilfranklin5644 a utensil of the devil 🤣
Prayer - It doesn't work but it's a good getting to sleep routine :-D
Cracking stuff.
Hahahaha an absolute legend!!
He is impossible. He was dead serious at the press conference announcing Mr. Bean. He was already dangerous then.
Don't lose your sleep over it. Jesus has a terrific sense of humour.
This is offensive?! THIS IS BRILLIANT, I say!
Great job Rowan! You're terrific!
I am a Christian (Catholic to be exact) and I find this TOTALLY HILARIOUS! :D :D :D
I am Anglican, and this is just what some of our clergy are like. I love being Anglican, Church of England, open, free, liberal, but sometimes you do get tired of some clergy trying to be young, hip, modern.
Nobody expects the Archbishop of Canterbury.
I love how there are so many comments saying about people are too sensitive and are putting down people who took offence, yet I cannot see any of the butthurt comments...
+TheJimmax Indeed, there were a lot of complaints to the BBC and this sketch was edited out of the recording available on iPlayer. Bit of an overreaction, I think.
+Saternalius ahh ok. But seriously? this was hilarious, those people need to go get a better sense of humour in my opinion!
Genius!
Brilliant
i love what they did to his eyebrows
Un IDOLO...! por mas que no entienda lo que dice me hace reir :)
People were offended by him saying that prayer don't work? There's no evidence that it works, and if it did work, why is there so much suffering in the world? People can't pray their way out of a bad situation. How could this be the most complained part of tv of the year?
It's nice to see Mr. Bean acting as Rowan Atkinson acting as an Archbishop... #inception
Is Rowan Atkinson a Posh Anglo-Indian? He Looks like he could do a Great wobbly-headed corner-shop proprietor!
0:19 bro really said hello 😅
Very nice!!!
