13th September 1993 - hmv 150 Oxfotd Street, London
My favorite part of the Opening Ceremony of the XXX Olympics was with Rowan Atkinson (Mr Bean)...Sir Simon Rattle conducted the London Symphony Orchestra playing "Chariots of Fire" This is Part Two of the video I made of it.
Happy birthday to Rowan Atkinson (a.k.a. Mr. Bean)!
Though I have tremendous respect for him as an actor and comedian, he does act a bit brutish to stuffed animals. Have you seen the dreadful things he's done to his Teddy?! When I went to wish him a happy birthday, I learned how hard (and high!) he can kick.
Yeaa not a classic One..But its a London location....And a rare NO changes in this One.....Filming around here was September 2010...

"The F1 will be remembered as one of the great events in the history of the car, and it may possibly be the fastest production road car the world will ever see." So said Autocar in its memorable 1994 road test of this seminal supercar.
Conceived by the gifted ex-Formula One engineer Gordon Murray to create the ultimate road car - with exterior design by the multi-faceted Peter Stevens - the F1 featured much pioneering technology, making it lighter with a more streamlined structure than many subsequent supercars.
Although not conceived as a competition car, modified examples took several race victories, including the 1995 Le Mans 24 Hours.
In 1998, the F1 set the record for the fastest road car in the world, achieving 231mph (372km/h) with the rev limiter on, and 243mph (391km/h) with it removed.
This particular F1 is arguably the best known of the 106 examples built. It is owned by actor Rowan Atkinson, and has been subject to extensive rebuilds at McLaren's Working Technical Centre, due to two high-profile road accidents!

Taken at Pembrey race track, near Llanelli in 2002. Rowan Atkinson was racing his 1986 Aston Martin V8 Zagato. He drove away from the circuit in his McLaren F1 (worth about £1,000,000). He was polite but curt; as was I.
UPDATE: His McLaren F1 is no more, after he wrapped it round a post.

From Blackader in Stirling to Blackadder (Atkinson) in Ypres.
The Cameronians
The 26th (Cameronian) Regiment of Foot was an Scottish infantry regiment of the British Army, active from 1688 to 1881.
Although the regiment took the name of its first colonel as The Earl of Angus's Regiment, it became popularly known as The Cameronians until 1751, when it was ranked as the 26th Foot.
The Cameronians fought in the Spanish Succession War under the command of the Duke of Marlborough, fighting at places such as Oudenaarde, Lille, Ghent and Nieuwpoort, all places within one hour of my hometown.
They came to Scotland and fought in the First Jacobite Rising, after which they saw action in Egypt, the American War of Independence, India and China.
In 1881, it merged with the 90th Regiment of Foot to form the Cameronians (Scottish Rifles). The Cameronians were themselves disbanded in 1968.
Blackader/Blackadder
John Blackader fought under the Duke of Marlborough in the Spanish Succession War, coming to the places mentioned above. His remains were laid to rest in the Church of the Holy Rude in Stirling, where this picture was taken.
Whether the Blackaders are related to the Clan Blackadder , I am not sure. It may very well be a different writing of the same family name, which later on evolved into a separate family.
What I wanted to show here, is that the "fictional" BBC series 'Blackadder' are not as fictional as one may think.
Take the last series, on Captain Blackadder during World War I.
Everybody familiar with the series will know that in the last episode, Blackadder most likely is killed in action. They have been ordered to "go over the top", at the start of the 'Big Push', also known as the Battle of Passchendaele.
Back to "real life". A certain Major-General Charles Blackadder is in command of the 38th Infantry Division at the Third Battle of Ypres.
Indeed, that battle is also known as the Battle of Passchendaele.
Monsieur Bean (Rowan Atkinson) made me laugh at the Boulevard Saint-Michel with his face at the back of bus 21 promoting his film "Les Vacances de Mr. Bean" (Mr. Beans Holiday).
