Of course this works perfectly and he is never in any danger. Mr Bean rides a bike and holds on to a passing vehicle for extra speed. When the ticket inspector opens the door, there is a slight implication that she suspects the two are homosexual but nothing is said and this is likely to go over the heads of younger viewers. There is nothing in this scene to suggest that the other man is using the toilet, he simply stands there, bemused. After a few seconds he realises that there is another man in there with him. When on another train, Mr Bean hides from the ticket inspector in the toilets, thinking its empty. The idea of being separated from a parent could be quite upsetting for some children especially when a stranger (albeit well-meaning) takes on the responsibility of reuniting them. Bean then realises that the man’s young son is on the train and he bangs on the window in panic, asking his father what to do. After several attempts, he is finally happy but as soon as Bean boards the train, the door closes, leaving the man on the platform. When getting on a train, Mr Bean asks a man to film him getting on board. While Mr Bean is never hurt by the traffic, this scene could encourage some kids to step into traffic without looking. This leads him to walk across busy roads and, while he continues oblivious and unharmed, the traffic around him has to stop suddenly and almost crash into each other. While trying to find the direction to a local train station, Mr Bean draws a line on a map and follows it literally. CONTENT: IS ‘MR BEAN’S HOLIDAY’ SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN?

The other two major characters, Stepan (played by Max Baldry) and Sabine (Emma de Caunes) are both an absolute joy to watch as all three work their way through France with happiness and acceptance of one another. Rowan Atkinson plays Bean with such passion that it is hard not to feel his love for the character. ‘Mr Bean’s Holiday’ on the other hand knows exactly who the character is and what makes him funny: relying on modern silent cinema style jokes and awkward situation set ups. This effort was ok, but struggled to find the essence of what made the TV show so good. The hapless hero had his first big screen outing in the 1997 Mel Smith movie ‘Bean’.
