Mr. Bean

Jan 1, 199025m8.7 / 10

Mr. Bean attends a mathematics exam, where he tries to copy from a student under the nose of the invigilator, when he realizes that he has studied the wrong maths equations.

And later struggles to stay awake during a church service and obnoxiously sings the refrain of the hymn "All Creatures of Our God and King," much to the annoyance of the man sitting next to him, Mr. Sprout.
