I quote them both pretty much daily.

 

Hard choice this.

I voted Partridge, but then went out in the garden and gave myself a good thrashing with a knotted rope.

Alan, Alan, Alan, Alan, Alan

 

Not my words, but the words of top gear magazine. Hello?

There's no way you big spastic, you're a mentalist.

 

The young ones was before my time making this possibly easier but it was never going to be remotely close for me. Kiss my face

[Barrington Womble]

This is the toughest for me. The young ones was probably the 1st comedy I loved. But partridge, fucking hell that's been brilliant and lasted for many years and really been the test of time. Shit. I'm going got partridge. Fucking tough this. 

[Dave D]

This is a Travesty.

 

Surely one of the biggest upsets of the modern era 

[Ezekiel 25:17]

I watch Partridge every week, I've nod desire to watch The young ones any time soon, although it was good.

Never liked the Partridge stuff and I'm not much of a fan of Coogan at all. The Young Ones was superb though.

Same I could never get into anything Coogan did.

 

At the time it was on The fast show was my favourite.

"Aye. I come back this morning on a National Express coach. It was sort of like an SAS operation, you know. Your mission: Gan 'til Cardiff, have full sex with a woman, come back on the coach. Sort of like Operation Bravo-Two-Zero."

Alan: "I think in your case, Michael. It was Bravo-Six-Zero. By Randy McNab!"

Michael: "Hey, Randy McNob!"

Alan: "Stop that now."

Great character, Michael.

Someone needs to bring to Dave U's attention that its likely that we have had an influx of rival fans join TLW and deliberately ruin our comedy tournament.

Jurassic Park 

 

Partridge wins 

[cloggypop]

I abstained. 

[easytoslip]

I agree with whoever said The Young Ones hasn't aged well though was good at the time, so it's Alan Partridge for me. 

 

[Dave D]

Partridge will age as well as Alf Garnett.

I’ve never really understood people complaining about film and television not aging well. Some stuff is timeless, most things aren’t. When I watch old stuff, I just factor in when it was made and what things were like then. If anything, it’s adds to the nostalgia value.

Life of Brian is the funniest film of all time. Nothing will ever ever beat it.

That's because it has aged well. Some stuff just turns shit.
