Rowan Atkinson

We all know Rowan Atkinson from his role as the comically clumsy Mr. Bean, but there is more to this talented actor than that character alone. Since this English actor’s career started in 1978, the entertainment hasn’t stopped, and it’s no wonder that this comedic genius is considered one of the fifty funniest British entertainers of all time.

Rowan is also known for his physical abilities in creating laughs, and that’s because he actually has a stammer, which forced him to develop a style that doesn’t always rely on words to get the audiences roaring with hilarity! Now that takes some brainpower and talent.

Hugh Laurie

It’s safe to say that there are few people who haven’t watched the acclaimed series House, starring English actor Hugh Laurie. But did you know that Hugh’s career started way back in England in 1981?

This esteemed English actor first started rising to prominence when he joined forces with entertainer Stephen Fry for the comedic exploits of their show Fry and Laurie but it wasn’t long before the talented performer struck out on his own. Now Hugh is one of the most-watched leading men in the history of television, as well as an accomplished musician and writer. We wish we were this skilled in merely one of those endeavors.
