Description

Hello and welcome to yet another episode of Lexx Education! With the GCSE science syllabus complete, but the strict biology, chemistry physics cycle only being 1/3 of the way through, Laura insists that they spend two episodes treading water until they sit the exams.

However, in this episode it's not water they're treading - but Bean. It's end of term vibes as Laura and Ron decide to explore the world of Mr Bean and pay homage to Laura's favourite way to spend a final lesson of term. They watch some Bean, Laura laughs and Ron is reluctant, they talk about a multitude of bean related facts and then they do a deep dive into the original Mr Bean release schedule. It's pretty fuckin weird.

💬 Show Notes


Welcome to another episode of Lexx Education, the comedy science podcast where comedian Laura Lexx and her brother Ron delve into the world of GCSE science and beyond. This week, with the GCSE syllabus finally behind them, Laura and Ron celebrate with an end-of-term episode dedicated to the timeless comedy of Mr. Bean.

Laura reminisces about the school days when a TV on a trolley meant a Mr. Bean marathon. Ron, on the other hand, is sceptical about Laura’s claims of watching Mr. Bean a million times. To settle the debate, they dive into the episodes and films, sharing laughs and quirky facts about Rowan Atkinson’s iconic character.

From the hilarity of Mr. Bean’s restaurant antics to the bizarre trivia about Rowan Atkinson’s life, this episode is packed with bean-related fun. Did you know Rowan Atkinson went to school with Tony Blair and studied electrical engineering at Oxford? Or that his brother narrowly missed leading UKIP? Laura and Ron explore these and other fascinating tidbits.

But it’s not all fun and games. The siblings also touch on Rowan Atkinson’s controversial political views and his surprising real-life heroics, like the time he took control of a plane in Kenya. And of course, they can’t resist discussing the infamous love triangle involving James Acaster and Louise Ford.
