Yeah it was class. I was laughing throughout and then when we saw schoolboy alan I lost my sh_t and never recovered
His slow motion face grimaces are definitely a trope (feel bad using that word sorry) going back to the air bag scene in I'm Alan partridge.
I know what you mean with sidekick Simon BUT that scene had Alan casting his iPad photos which was cock p_iss funny ( Noel Edmonds, pregnant naked women)
Excellent, chapeau alan
Did anyone else immediately think of here with the vegetarian and driverless sections?
Just watched the third episode and kept thinking I'm not sure I can make it to the end. As in I need time to process what I've just seen before the next thing hits me. Fantastic
I like it too. I think i'll give it a rewatch.
Plus i never realised the difference between an acronym and an initialism.

Everyday is a school day as Alan would undoubtedly say.
here with the vegetarian
Absolutely not. Not at all. 😀
Piers Morgan watched it. He didn’t like it.
I wonder why ?

I reckon that bloke from Sunderland will turn out to be Michael's brother.
Piers Morgan watched it. He didn’t like it.
I didn’t realise PM was on Good Morning Britain ..
Its been about 8 years since watching that programme, I did revel in his tirade at the Conservative MP yesterday morning when interviewing him about the disaster at MayBots vote outcome.
Didn't spot any Alan Partridge references though, can’t be the same bloke can it??
If anyone wants to see the ceaselessly self-promoting shamtomime of a man unknowingly spawning more Pier/Partridgisms, even as he attempts to be scathing 😂:
(Low)life imitating art. AKA 'unknowing me, knowing you AHARGH!'
What if M*rgan is a meta-comic? A level deeper than Partridge? What if I had three much coffee.
I noticed Suzanna always looked pissed off anytime he opened his vacuous Gob.
She must be being paid £1bn for her to keep a straight face.
How long will she last?? 🤷♂️
They're presently discussing Bloody Sunday on the radio. I know its all very serious, and no laughing matter at all, but I always think of this....
Literally, nobody is now watching. I watched it last night.
Tempted to play a game - who said that? Morgan or Partridge

It's all a sham. They are both actors in an undeclared semi-pantomime. The whole show plays around clickbaity pseudo-talking points of the day lifted from redtop red-rag rabble-rousing bolx. It's basically a soft-on version of a youtube clickbait video with the comments-feed played out on TV.
Morgan plays the put-upon anti-pc chauvinist 'alpha' character in the guise of an overgrown schoolboy, while Reid plays the 'reasonable feminist' in the guise of a tutting sex-symbol in the red figure-hugging dress that Piers' fans love to hate.
The fans champion Piers as the 'anti-PC White Western Male' fighting the uppity, 'politically-correct'female/serpent at his side. They usually enlist a second female/serpent to make it look like a harder fight. George vs The Dragons
Although the Morganites would of course not-so-secretly love to 'have a crack at that'. Second-fiddle rules.
All in a (day-after-day-after-)day's work in your super-soaraway fatshamingfeminazifashionfeature shamtomime!
this week's was cracking. His getting one over on her made me laugh
"it"
Speaking of Piers and those clown shows........This is still my favorite bit of TV ever. The programme Crossfire was cancelled shortly after!
Oops he did it again.
The resusci anne! Pmsl.
Getting better week after week.
It's excellent 🙂
Polis Scotland will need to take those songs off their unofficial banned list now that they are bbc approved! 😆
Episode generally was very good, but the ending stepped it up to another level.
watched the 3rd one last night. ita bloody brilliant now, really hit its stride. had to rewatch so many parts as its hard to take it all in, the little facial expressions, his cracking knees, everything. its gold
yes last nights was the best yet! as was Fleabag! love mondays atm!!
Last nights was brilliant! The Irish Alan singing IRA songs was utter genius! 😀
last nights was the best yet
the racist old lady bit felt like partridge of old
The highlight for me was the CPR scene. "Another one bites the dust" big laughs
Another one bites the dust
it's such simple comedy but the structure of the joke and the timing is just perfect.
Very good episode, the delay with the reporter in America had me in pieces when she stopped doing it with the female presenter. Very funny.
It's ace. I'm thoroughly enjoying it.
Bit up and down but the CPR scene was gold!
As for him looking too young - I just assume he's meant to be wearing daytime TV levels of slap. 🙂
Martin Brennan was excellent. It's funnier the 2nd time around.
Alan's face when he first see's him.
Although it's reminds me of the racist band in Phoenix Nights. I suppose all comedy feeds off other comedy.
It is definitely getting better week on week.
His co-presenter is absolutely brilliant, a superb foil.
[ Double Double ]
Probably the easiest episode to write… effortlessly silly.
600 members inside the house of parliament ... Making her ache or something.
Brilliant script.
The 'twitter' board was class this week too.
Brilliant stuff. Over the top PC stuff made me think once again that they may get inspiration from here.
Found the original Partridge, Knowing Me Knowing You, in Netflix.
Brilliant! Even better with a bottle of red and some Italian salami....
Found the original Partridge, Knowing Me Knowing You,
IMO still the best Partridge.
Some of the supporting characters are superb. Joe Beazley. 3 minutes of genius.
