Alan Partridge

[rubble-rouser]

I thought the recent series of mid-morning matters was by far the best thing he's done for years apart from the Trip. 

 

Scissored Isle was quite poor - about on a par as 'Places of my life' or whatever it was called). It all seemed a bit rushed. I stayed at my mate's house at the weekend and a group of lads were watching it and pissing themselves laughing - to be fair it was funnier than I'd remembered it but still a bit contrived. There were some good ideas that were poorly executed and once or twice there were old jokes from previous series repeated. 

 

I think it shows Partridge is just hit and miss these days - the lack of Ianucci doesn't necessarily kill it dead, but it takes away some of the more absurd elements of Alan and I imagine a degree of perfectionism.

Agree about Mid Morning Matters, the last series was brilliant in parts.

Only saw this a for the first time a few months ago I think it was from about 10 years ago  (Partridge looks like a slim David Brent).....

 

Very funny and I think Daltrey (or is it Waters??) is really good playing it straight

Real TV/radio shows that sound like Alan Partridge ideas. Life imitating Partridge.

Hahaha. Fucking brilliant

Whatever happened to that hosteling with Chris Eubank proggy that was meant to be happening?

[VladimirIlyich]

Never been a fan of the Partridge stuff myself. Enjoyed the Paul Calf stuff though.

Anybody watch the Documentary on BBC2 last night?

 

I thought it was brilliant, loads of behind the scenes footage from the 90s & interviews with those involved.

 

The World Cup sketch still makes me piss myself every time I watch it as well, sheer genius, "...and another."

I missed that, is it BBC or another Sky Atlantic thing?

On the BBC. I heard something a few weeks back saying that in the new series Alan will be a Brexiteer. Should be good.

I read the book recently, I Partridge, would recommend it

I've listened to it on audiobook with Partridge narrating it. Side splitting.

“I, Alan Partridge, talk to M.E. sufferers about their condition. We intersperse with their favourite pop songs, make it lighthearted, give them a platform. You’ve got to keep the energy up…”

Camping in the Dordogne this week. Forgot to pack a book. Mrs Lurtz presented me with a birthday present 2 days early. "I, Partridge". Back of the net.
