You've never seen Blackadder?

I didn't saw those... And all those are comedians' work, but Maigret is anything but comedy...

Yes, I was surprised he was able to pull off a straight role. I kept expecting him to say "Wibble"[^].

Indeed - Both IMDB and Wikipedia has him as alive and kicking, and they're normally REALLY quick to update when a celebrity kicks the bucket.
However, I'm not sure if Peter was referring to the rumour or if it was merely a slight linguistic error in his OP?!?!?

I must admit to being concerned. Being a child of the '80s Black Adder, Not the nine O'clock News, Bean and others are a touch stone for me.

Same here. I'd even add Johnny English to the list...

The first season of Black Adder was a bit so-so but the last three seasons (and the specials) were all brilliant! Wibble!

Took a hell of an actor to play Bean, I'd like to see him in this other role.

Really? I think that Mr. Bean has been discriminated against all along: https://i.stack.imgur.com/oJsaW.jpg
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

I just got started on a list of small web applications that company policy has decided to do using Apex - Oracle's supposedly RAD environment.
It took a few days to get used to it but I am actually starting to enjoy it. It's different.
Anyone else done this? Comments, gotchas, etc.
Note: Don't tell me to use some other tool - I am stuck with this one and am making the best of it despite it's quirks.
