Rowan Atkinson Live - The devil Toby welcomes you to hell

In this funny sketch, Rowan plays the devil, also known as 'Toby', he welcomes new people to hell!

Selected Highlights from Rowan's stand up tours during the years 1981 to 1986.

Whether mesmerising us with the sheer
visual mastery of Mr. Bean, beguiling us with
the acerbic wit of Edmund Blackadder, or
simply entertaining us as the suave, but
rather hapless British Secret Agent Johnny
English, you surely won't have escaped the
comic genius that is Rowan Atkinson.

In Rowan Atkinson Live, co-written with Richard Curtis (4 Weddings & a Funeral,
Notting Hill, Love Actually) and Ben Elton, Atkinson runs the whole gamut of his
remarkably versatile 30 year career, with sketches, mimes and monologue's that are
guaranteed to have you shedding tears of laughter. Performing live on stage alongside
"straight man" Angus Deayton, the show features a number of original and familiar
routines, including sketches that appeared in the original Mr. Bean series.

"Catch you later at the barbecue"

Looks where he had placed his imaginary "small guillotine"! xD Pure genius!

The joke is that throughout history, since Christ, the two religions, Judaism and Christianity have been at odds in worshipping God, believing the other to be wrong (with violent results on both sides.) The devil here is suggesting that the 'Jews were right' thus the Christians go to hell, yet the irony is that the concept of 'hell' does not exist as a physical entity within Jewish teachings so if the Jews were right then Hell shouldn't exist.

"You're all here for ETERNITY... so you'll all get to know each other pretty well, by the end".

Rodmaster Studios. Perhaps Jews don't got to hell so for a Jew, Hell wouldn't exist. (Christian btw)
