Lying to Michael Jackson: The Comic Relief Special


Did anybody see the Comic Relief spoof of this interview a couple of years ago? If I remember correctly it starred Rowan Atkinson (Mr Bean) as Martin Bashir and Lennie Henry (in very heavy makeup) as Michael. It was hysterical!

Example:

Bashier (Atkinson): I see you have a chess board Michael. Do you play?

Jackson (Henry): No I don't play chess, it's an adult game.

Bashier: I could teach you if you like. Do you want to be black or white?

Jackson: That's not funny! That's just immature!

Other highlights include the dancing scene and Jackson going up to two black babies in a store and saying "Do you have these in white?"

"We can't bury Shelly... she's... she's a friend of ours!"

Yep i saw it on jetzi.cjb.net and it was very funny! I also like the parts where Michael imitates a british accent to perfection and Martin imitates Michael's dance moves to perfection. Yet both think the other isn't very impressive lol.

Most of it was funny but the one thing that I didn't think was right this line that goes something like

Rowan Atkinson as Martin Bashir: Your father used to beat you that must of been awful?
Lenny Henry as Michael Jackson: Not really, he used to beat me and I would go OW. I wouldn't of got my unique sound if it hadn't of been for my father.

The real Michael would never of said that.
