Man vs Baby has just arrived on Netflix and the four-part series is a follow-up to Man vs Bee, with Rowan Atkinson reprising his role as Trevor Bingley.
While he was a house sitter in the first series, Trevor finds himself looking after something much more precious in Man Vs Baby, following his job as a school caretaker.
The hilarious festive series follows Trevor as he is forced to look after a baby who had been playing the role of the baby Jesus in the school nativity, and had been left behind by his mother.
Following an early screening of the series, Mr Bean and Blackadder legend Atkinson was asked during a Q&A what his favourite scene was to film.
His answer may come as a surprise to some fans, as he said: “I have none, I can’t think of anything that I enjoyed filming.
“But that’s just me when I’m filming, so I apologise for that.” After taking some time to think, he still could not come up with a favourite moment from filming.
He was asked, “You are not able to relax, even now?” To which he replied: “I think the show is very good, but I can also see holes in it. I keep thinking, hmm.”
The 70-year-old actor, comedian and writer has been known to be openly sceptical about his work, including his previous Netflix series, Man vs Bee.
During an appearance on The One Show, he had said: “I’m always glad when it’s over. I don’t really enjoy the shooting, I enjoy the scriptwriting, we spent two years trying to write the thing and compose the thing.
“I enjoyed the postproduction and the bit of shooting I got quite stressed about. I’m always convinced whatever I have done, I haven’t done as well as I could.”
He was later asked by an audience member about the future of the Man vs Baby franchise, to which he said: “Well there’s nothing in the cupboard at the moment, the cupboard is bare. Literally no plans.”
The show’s co-writer, William Davies, interjected to say there are “many other things”, but “Rowan rather would never do anything ever again, that is where we always begin”.
The star admitted filming with a real baby for this series “wasn’t easy”, revealing: “You can only have a baby on set for 45 minutes [a total of two hours a day] and a shoot day is eight or 10 hours so there are so many hours that you can’t actually continue filming that scene.
“You have got to film a different scene, or a different shot, just looking the other way. The scheduling is tricky with babies.
“So we have identical twins, the hero babies, and then we had twin crawling babies because the hero babies couldn’t crawl. So that’s where the CGI comes in, when you implant the face of the hero baby into the crawling baby.”
