The All New Alan Partridge Thread

[Langers]

All 3 of his novels are now on Spotify Premium at no extra cost.

Read by Alan himself.

Not read the new one yet (Big Beacon) but I have the other 2 and they're fucking superb. They'll be even better with him narrating.

 

[Kenny]

Well I am not praising you for this info twice...

Do not accept imitation Partridge giffers

I don't think any potential AP'ers will ever top this masterpiece. Probably not that accidental though.

Steve Brown who played Glen Ponder in KMKYWAP has died

"Here's a good joke. You'll like this one. There's this bloke called Glen Ponder. He's playing jazz synthesiser in a Norwich wine bar. In walks Alan Partridge. Alan gives him a big break on national TV. Glen's pleased. Glen gets lippy. Glen gets the sack."

That's niche, even for you.

And did those feet follows Alan as he arrives back in Norwich after working for a year in Saudi, realises he’s lost and drifting, so goes around the uk trying to sort himself out

That’s surely satire?

It's Greg(g) Wallace, no it isn't

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Much like Bravo Two Zero by Andy McNab, it actually improves with every read.

That line about his kid FFS

His drink selection is a bit

Some vintage Ggreg:

Table Talk

Gregg Wallace, Masterchef co-presenter, on why he ate a sheep's head and his fraught relationship with pickled beetroot

www.theguardian.com

 

[Kenny]

If you're going to raise animals for slaughter, you should pay them the respect of eating all of them

It's what they want us to do

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I do wonder what the tie-in is between the likes of Ggreg and Jake Humphrey with their self-help nonsense and also getting up at a stupid time, it's so odd.

Do you know why I don't get up and read at 5am? Because it's too fucking early, that's why, and if you do then you have to have the same bedtime as a toddler on a Saturday evening, when normal people are doing fun stuff. Even those of us who aren't keen amateur historians.
