Was there on Saturday night and was brilliant.

Even if (i reckon) at least half the crowd didn't know who he was. :D

Simon Pegg cameo on the tambourine was a nice surprise too.

Love this sequence at the end, even though it's nothing like their usual stuff. Really good production values too. Shout out for him arguing against antisocial behaviour and espousing conservative economics taking the other side to the peasants revolt ;D

Very good series again, some brilliant episodes that I want to describe but it’ll ruin the gags, I think. Less filler at only twelve episodes.

Always nice for new Partridge material as you see him active on Twitter and LinkedIn.

Was about to ask the same. Off on a long train journey on Saturday to meet up with some fellow Partridge afficiandos so would be good to get ahead of the game. :D

4 episodes in - have to say that my highlight so far is the excerpts of his novels.

Love the bit where he sees a figure in black striding towards him "Like Yul Brynner's cowboy in Westworld, or Kirsty Allsop spotting a workman taking too long on his tea break".

I've still got 2 episodes to go but I think I'll give it an immediate relisten to pick up on some of the jokes again.
