Topic: Alan Partridge - including Alpha Papa

[Fitzy.]

I thought the last couple of minutes where  Partridge read out some of the less flattering tweets about Baskell's sexual proclivities and the other two presenters response was very much in the " I never really knew Sir Jimmy" school of disemblance.

"You Christmased together, which is a verb I'd never heard before"

[So… Howard Philips]

The only media I’ve seen/heard talk about it negatively are the gutter press and Piers Moron.

Certainly not Simon Heffer.

Simon Heffer, Enoch Powell's biographer?

[clinical]

Thought that second episode was awful.

You're awful

[Buck Pete]

Thought that second episode was awful.

Wh..Wh...Who do you think you are?

[rowan_d]

Don't think we've had nearly enough of Alan going on the offensive yet so far, very end of the second episode is the only part I remember of the two episodes where he's not on the back foot.

Needless to say he will have the last laugh though

I'm quite liking this though

Hes obviously trying too hard to be nice in his new role but as he settles in we see the Alan we know and love slowly begin to return

[gerrardisgod]

Get a room!...Get a room!!!

[Hazell]

I'm quite liking this though

I'm like this John, I'm liking this a lot.

[sinnermichael]

Mmm. Meat free lilt.

[bryanod]

Simon bits been terrible I'm afraid...

[gerrardisgod]

The young Alan face

[Welshred]

"I'd like to tickle your pink"

Think that was the best again so far. The conversation with the Geordie guy at the end was brilliant

[El Lobo]

Now sit down you lemon

[LanceLink!!!!!]

The young Alan face

Amazing stuff

[redgriffin73]

Best episode yet. That was brilliant!

Wassuppppp?!

The book on political correctness called Fat Black Cripples

[Buck Pete]

I was actually crying laughing at that scene in the gym with the slipper and the dummy.

Classic Alan

Haha yeah, had a good guffaw when the dummy went flying.

Knew the Scottish guy would make a good guest as soon as he was introduced too.

Just the state of the dummy had me going.

I’m hoping Ted ends up being a relative of Michael’s.

[Riquende]

The turnabout interview with that reporter (Ruth someone?). The glee he was getting from "That's exactly right Jenny". Genius follow up to the last one.

The weird guy from Sunderland back again. Brilliant.

I did think the meat and school bits rambled again, and Simon is a bit pointless (but then I guess that's the gimmick... trouble is I don't think it works as 'meta' comedy. I also wanted something a bit more from the contents of his phone...

[planet-terror]

Not as good as last week but some brilliant laugh out loud moments. Interview with the Scottish guy was brilliant.

[Welshred]

Several weird images of naked pregnant women followed by Noel Edmund's with his legs spread not enough for you?

[Buck Pete]

Haha yeah, had a good guffaw when the dummy went flying.

Just the state of the dummy had me going.

Yep, these were the two things they got me

Fucking hilarious stuff

[redgriffin73]

The Simon bits aren't as good as I'd hope but the selection of Alan's photos coming up on the screen was hilarious!

That really made me laugh out loud. And the prostitute made of ham.

Mmm. Meat free lilt.

[redgriffin73]

"I think I ate her"

[LanceLink!!!!!]

He's mental

[voodoo ray]

let's call it st bastard's.

Me too, ridiculous stuff

Like the Sidekick Simon bits, but then I think Tim Key is funny in anything he does, this one wasn't as good as the first two ('keepin' cool') but still quite funny.

[John C]

Yeah both scenes stunningly funny mate. Having never watched a single Partridge episode before I'm thoroughly enjoying this series

[Crosby Nick]

I envy you, in a way. So much material to watch for the very first time.

[gerrardisgod]

I think I’d be prepared to hunt down a chicken.

The sausage sandwich song was a classic.

Hard to believe it was written way back in 1979.

He's always been ahead of his time.

Loved the 'subtle' promotion of the garden clothing line as well.

8kg of meat,  the equivalent of a fat baby or two malnourished ones



....You and I, ate a sausage sandwich
