AHA!

How has he kept the quality of the character high for so long? One of the few people who's managed to keep something going without diluting quality

Partridge isn't the character, Coogan is.

Cheese

Is scissored Isle any good? I watched the first episode and thought it was alright.

deep

literally who?

>being proud of your own ignorance

Minor women whiplash

I only watched the movie without the awareness of the character and I loved it

>tfw no qt young Travel Tavern employee to constantly mock and laugh at you

Is the latest book good?

DIXONS

I started with the movie, did I fuck up?

It's probably the worst Partridge thing. So anything else you watch will be even better in comparison.

shit shank redemption.

Armando iaanauci write most of it.

Coogan and Ianucci found the Gibbons brothers to write all the new stuff. They've kept the same quality but made it feel fresh at the same time.

Scissored Isle is a one off special, not a series.

It is just more Alan Partridge, which is a good thing.

He's a TV star and a radio presenter.

...

His audiobooks are essential.

Talking about the nerves of approaching his father-in-law's house to ask for his daughter's hand in marriage and then going off on a tangent about lawnmowers had me in stitches.

It's amazing how many quotes you can subtly use in daily life.

"Nice action"

When putting on gloves "I find the DeWalt allows for greater purchase"

And of course his summary of his breakfast.

Coogan's a twat
as is Partridge
You're all twats for wanking to this rubbish

FLYING AIDS

Don't rub your fanny on meeeeeeeeee

Is it odd I enjoyed the movie but remember nothing about it outside of the guy trying to kill Alan? I did have severe sleep lack while watching so maybe that played a part and it was on a five hour flight but I need to watch it again to give a proper opinion.

So favourite scenes? Any are golden but I love Alan's anecdote about how he pissed off Blue Peter or when he meets his stalker fan.

Would you say this is our Frasier?

No, watch I'm Alan partidge and the audiobook of I, Partridge next

That is the most english looking person I've ever seen.

Talented writers. Plus they only make something new when they have a good idea, they haven't been pumping out Partridge nonstop.

You're a twat

What spray are you lads wearing today? Java here

Vodoo motherfucker

Mostly because of Iannucci. Anything made without him involved has been weaker than the rest.

Any Partridge done by Coogan solo has been terrible.

>Norfolk
>English

pick one

>Would you say this is our Frasier?
No, Partridge is funny.

He's managed to create one of the best comedy characters of all time.

easy to keep it going when you're a literally who

Lynn, these are sex people

Your mum's twat
You're whole family are twats

INTO ME!

SO I came onto Coogan from the Trip series and thought he and Bryan were fantastic, then I go back and watch Alan Patridge stuff and it's like...Father Ted or Black Books tier...I have no idea how I missed it for so long.

i haven't watched s2 of the trip because s1 was so fucking bleak - does it get better?

Michael was one of the best observed sitcom characters of all time. He perfectly encapsulated the idea of a working class army guy who struggled to integrate into the real world when his military days were over.

Alan's recollections of the events of S1 and S2 of I'm Alan Partridge is fucking hilarious. especially the meeting with the BBC executive where he hits him with the cheese

PEEPHOLE PRINGLE

LIQUID FOOTBALL

Great in the show, worst part of the film

Very clever men, both very clever men. But I don’t trust them. Jerry Adams looks like a deputy headmaster and Martin McGuinness looks like a clown without make-up.

I remember bits and pieces of it, Alan slapping somebody in the face with his glove like Hitler, the bad CGI when he's hiding in the toilet. There was some song near the end too.

Also,
>What is the worst type monger, fish or war?

Fool sex wi' a woman

S2 is nowhere near as bleak iirc.

I remember the end of S1 with the sad piano music that played for way too long and just made you want to kill yourself. What a series.

Classic Queen

What should I do with the cup?

Would you be brave enough to let me finish my conversation?

The writers are behind a lot sure but Coogan has done entire interviews and radio shows in character with it flowing perfectly, maybe every question and response was rehearsed ahead of time but they don't feel like it

This is cheese. I've got cheese

KILL KILL
STAB
TWIST
KILL

Aye, that and killin'

He says Alan sometimes just takes over him. You notice it in the second series of The Trip a lot

Sophie is perfect.

Cup o' beans

BLACK MIRROR TIER COMMENTARY

Why is that so popular lately, it's good but it never used to get this amount of attention

The Yanks have taken it over and fucked it right up.

Beware of his web of sin BUT DON'T GO IN

Yeah didn't like that

Steve Coogan is the only man living to upstage Jackie Chan.

Bash your arse!

the key to partridge is simplicity. keep it domestic, keep it colloquial. like a warm beer and a bag of scampi with eamon holmes.

partridge's low point for me was IAP series two where BIG FUNNY THINGS had to happen every episode and the movie which took that even further.

the best partridge is the asides, the folk wisdom, the quiet and relatable chuckles while doing the dishes.

he's properly returned to form with mid morning matters, the two books (the first is the absolute finest slice of partridge there will ever be, and the second is still very, very good) and his low key docus and the best IAP episodes were those where the least happened.

as long as they don't forget this and try to crank up the dial again, partridge will remain evergreen.

I wish Chris Morris did more stuff

Both the TV series were GOAT, everything after it was shit. The film was especially terrible.

>You farmers like to stick to their own

Still never seen brass eye

I really like Partridge's look in this interview:

Is this kind of style something you can pull off if you're a swede in your mid 20s?

>a swede in your mid 20s

Are you not all wearing this?

Is I, Partridge funny for non-British people? Or are there references I won't get?

It's funny regardless of where you've from, if you like his normal humour then you'll love it

There will be references you probably wont get if your not familiar with British tv from the 80's onwards. Theres this whole bit about the Olympic hurdler Sally Gunnell...which...Im not saying you have to be british to get the joke, but it helps as all the people he usually interacts with and likes occupy this strange position in the british collective psyche as a bit boring and understated like he is. Its all so well written and acted that I think you can like it if your not British, but you really need a fairly comphrensive understanding of our media and be knowledgable about our multifaceted cultural identity.

what about her she's hot
