Heads up - new PARTRIDGE tomorrow...

[Bladders]

Like most Partridge stuff you need to watch it few times.

Flying aids and Nazi dogs were the two lines that made me chuckle and they were in quick succession. Made the rest of the hour a bit meh really. The bits with the range rover salesman was awful, the dramatisation of the parking charges meeting was ok as was him walking in the woods. Interview in the pool was predictable and not very funny.

 

[Jam The Man]

Quite liked the reaction to his former teacher!

 

[RowleyBirkinQ.C(deceased)]

YES it's an extender!

We've got one of these tables at home and every time we have family and friends round for dinner and I have to make the table bigger, I shout this in an exited voice and titter to myself about it. Much to my wifes bemusement

I do exactly the same every Christmas!

By Coogan's high standards last night's show was nothing special, amusing rather than laugh out loud. However, it was also quite melancholy. I was saddened to see Partridge driving a Vauxhall and working at North Norfolk Digital, rather than driving a Lexus and working at Radio Norwich. This is the very opposite of bouncing back.

And its all covered in the "autobiography" and this programme ties in neatly with established continuity.

Lynne (albeit not seen) is on the phone to Alan.

AP - the movie is (finally) being made... BBC News - Alan Partridge film gets release date

I actually thought this was really funny. The joke (I think!!) is that Alan's own company Peartree Productions had made the documentary and he felt a 10 minute argument about Range Rover spec worthy of inclusion... Maybe I am reading to much into it.

The Hitler speech overdub was brilliant too as was the editing at the end of the discussion with the vicar!

 

[Tony Towner's Fridge]

It was quite spectacular. He amuses and makes one cringe in adjoining sentences. Truly a genius character. In particular I loved the Norwich Town Hall and Nazi lion segment.

Aha

TTF


oops I meant TNBA

Partridge is brilliant.

One of my favourite bits from Partridge too. Brilliant. I get the same looks in the office from the two girls in here when I try to say 'said the actress to the vicar' at least once a day (I think they think i'm a bit immature..)

Bit like if everyone is round at Christmas - its Peter Kay's emergency christmas chairs routine....

 

[Gritt23]

Must say, I was rather disappointed, but couldn't quite put my finger on what I felt was missing. I think there was just too much monologue, when I find his best bits are when he's dealing with people. I quite enjoyed the bit with the fruit and veg stall, and the interview in the pool. But overall, it was not of his previous standard.

 

[W.C.]

Another excellent addition to the whole Partridge body of work I thought.

couldn't agree more. Am re watching it again tonight. Am laughing a lot more now than I was yesterday

 

[Martinf]

Partridge is bloody brilliant but I actually laughed out loud more watching VEEP afterwards.

 

[brakespear]

This is on Sky 1 tonight at 22:00 I think, in case anybody didn't see it.

 

[Easy 10]

Veep was very good, and has been duley series linked.

Not as good as The Thick of It though, I think it needs a Tucker character to truly elevate it to greatness.
