Original Episode Descriptions []
- The Curse of Mr. Bean
Mr. Bean is again at the wheel of his Mini, totally oblivious of the effect his appalling driving is having on other road users. A little blue three-wheeler again gets to see the world from another angle. During a visit to THE SWIMMING POOL, Mr. Bean gets very excited about the prospect of a dive from the top board, but discovers he hasn't quite got the nerve for it. He rapidly loses his self respect...and his bathers. on THE PARK BENCH, Mr. Bean displays more futile ingenuity when he shows you how to make a sandwich. Mr. Bean is convinced that a HOOROR MOVIE is his favourite form of entertainment. Until the movie begins.
- Mr. Bean Goes to Town
Mr. Bean has bought his first TELEVISION, but is having trouble with the reception. He finds a solution to the problem that no-one with a normal brain would have thought of in a thousand years. Mr. Bean has another new toy, a Polaroid camera, and takes it to THE PARK. When a deceptively friendly passer-by steals it, Mr. Bean devises a cunning IDENTITY PARADE to catch the culprit. There follows an evening at CLUB PHUT. A magician suicidally invites Mr. Bean to help him out with a few tricks, and Mr. Bean has to escape to THE DISCO, where he seizes the opportunity to display his considerable dancing skills.
- The Bus Stop
NOT PREVIOUSLY SEEN ON TELEVISION
Mr. Bean, not surprisingly, misses the bus, but is determined to be at the front of the queue for the next one.
Revised Episode Descriptions (on US VHS)[]
- The Curse of Mr. Bean
I have an awful time at the SWIMMING POOL - why they have to put the diving board at the height of Mount Everest, I just do not know. Anyway, I manage to find a PARK BENCH and make a most delicious sandwich for myself and feed much better until.... AAAAARRGGAAHH!! HORROR MOVIE!!!
- Mr. Bean Goes to Town
Trying to get my stupid TELEVISION AERIAL into the correct position leaves me feeling decidedly chilly and then I get my camera stolon in THE PARK. That night, having given a lady friend of mine a marvellous time at CLUB PHUT, she just wanted to dance with this other bloke. What I do next leaves them both somewhat in the dark (Tsk, Tsk!).
AND NOT PREVIOUSLY SEEN ON TELEVISION...
- The Bus Stop
Having to wait with a bunch of stupid people for a stupid bus. (GRR!)
