Atkinson’s People: A BBC Radio Comedy starring Rowan Atkinson

Rowan Atkinson stars as many different characters in four episodes from the classic comedy series, written by Rowan Atkinson and Richard Curtis ('Four Weddings and a Funeral', 'Notting Hill'), which investigates the lives of four great - but imaginary - men.

We hear about the life and times of master orator, Sir Benjamin Fletcher: writer, statesman, Nobel Prize winner, painter, farmer, diplomat, wit, etc, etc... There’s France’s greatest thinker and philosopher George Dupont; and actor, raconteur and general bore, Sir Corin Basin. Barry Good - the ‘Pope of pop’ - also looks back at his life (before he came a rich tax exile).

Produced by Griff Rhys Jones, 'Atkinson’s People' was one of the first radio series ever to star Rowan Atkinson and was a forerunner to the massively successful 'Blackadder' TV series.

Rowan Atkinson stars in the spoof radio series which looked at the personalities behind the headlines - co-written by Richard Curtis.
