Alan Partridge........

[elbows]

Wahey....

New Alan Partridge series revealed

This Time with Alan Partridge sees him stand in as the co-host of an evening programme that has more than a few similarities to the BBC's The One Show.

It's described as a "heady mix" of consumer affairs, news, "highbrow interviews and lightweight froth".

As with The One Show, which sees a male and female host on the sofa discussing the stories of the day, Partridge will be joined by co-presenter Jennie Gresham. She's played by Susannah Fielding, who's appeared in Black Mirror, The Great Indoors, The C Word and Doctor Who.

Tim Key reprises the role he played in Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa - although this time, instead of being Sidekick Simon he's billed as Simon Denton.

*The One Show* - possibly the most mundane, pointless and random programme on televison. Beige TV supreme. Ripe, then, for The Partridge Parody. Hope Coogan's piss-take kills the original off. Stone dead.

Stop getting Partridge wrong!

I got 9, for what it's worth.

 

[Steel Icarus]

9 for me, too, though I'm quite disappointed in the score.

 

[stavros]

Does anyone else sense a Partridge marathon prior to the new show's transmission? It'll need to be tightly scheduled mind.

 

[stavros]

Hmm, this obviously didn't surface this year.

 

[stavros]

In the absence of a new series, I watched Knowing Me Knowing Yule last night. Still very, very funny.

Early 2019!

[Dillinger4]

What a funny story

 

[souljacker]

I have an Alan Partridge app on my phone. You can get it to spout various Alan-isms. I particularly like 'Ya big girl's bras'.

 

[stavros]

I just did the quiz again, and got 9 again. My failure was not knowing how old Michael was when he joined the army. I guessed at eighteen, simply because it sounded better than seventeen in his voice.

Does anyone know why the BBC haven't put out a date for this to start yet? We're a third of the way through February so we're running out of time if it's going to be this month. Want to see it.

My wife and I are always doing Alan isms at each other. It's a sort of default Netflix option when we can't be arsed to get into a serious film.

I wont be surprised if the first episode just squeezes into February, with most of them happening in March. But I am just guessing.

David Camerons famous negotiating technique of 'not going for a piss and then becoming desperate, adding a sense of urgency to proceedings' strikes me as something Partridge might try.
