Very excited Smile

Wish they would stop playing the 40 second teaser though! The chaps from Monkey Tennis went to the screening and said it's great so really looking forward to it.

I can’t wait and have laid on the sofa and watch both series of I’m Alan Partridge with teen DS tonight. He was pissing himself laughing and couldn’t believe how funny it is

JustAnotherPoster00 · 24/02/2019 03:15

Ahhhh haaa!!

MutantDisco · 24/02/2019 03:27

I have mixed feelings about it. I think Partridge is funnier when he's on his uppers, which is why I'm Alan Partridge is better than KMKY. I know there'll be laughs and I'm excited, but I'm reining in the expectations until Monday!

AnneLovesGilbert · 24/02/2019 22:23

Back of the net!

Early reviews say it’s amazing, can’t wait!

Both his books are brilliant too.

Bittermints · 25/02/2019 22:46

We laughed. A lot.

BoswellsBollocks · 25/02/2019 22:49

My 2 teens, my brother and I all love I’m Alan Partiridge, most of our chats have AP quotes in there somewhere!

In fact my brother text me ‘After the pee or poo has landed do make sure that you're clean handed’ about 15 mins ago 😂😂😂

Partridgeamongstthepigeons · 25/02/2019 23:23

Loved a lot of it, will have to watch it again to get all of it. Didn't like the rehashed joke from Nomad (big in the back time) but liked the reference to MMM and NND. Loved Lynn being there and seeing Sidekick Simon too- wish there was some way to have Michael back... looking forward to episode 2.

Jurassic ParkGrin

RIP Michael. I thought of him when we last stood on Cromer pier.

The show was good!

Davros · 25/02/2019 23:26

We love AP but didn't really enjoy this, hope it's just first episodeitis

HaroldsSocalledBluetits · 25/02/2019 23:28

At least Michael's death wasn't in vain.

PrettyAmazingGrace · 25/02/2019 23:32

You beat me to it @MarthasGinYard!

Jurassic Park!

Jet!

I'm sorry, Michael, that's just a noise.

Oh welcome back Alan ✈

VeryFoolishFay · 25/02/2019 23:42

Actually, it's Alice Fluck.
Oh, I see what I did there.

ThreeFish · 25/02/2019 23:48

I love Alan Partridge. But I watched a new series called Warren with Martin Clunes immediately before it and laughed out loud a number of times, so Alan was a bit disappo8nting in comparison.

Meet0nTheledge · 25/02/2019 23:55

I used to love AP but didn't really enjoy the show tonight, the concept seems very dated now. Might try and rewatch later in the week, give it another chance.

HaroldsSocalledBluetits · 25/02/2019 23:58

I think it was too like the thing it was mocking, in a too low key way. I mean, it was really just like watching the one show.

ginghambox · 26/02/2019 00:02

Is he going to be funny this time.

DontCallMeCharlotte · 26/02/2019 00:05

I have only just recovered from the last lot of Alan Partridge and now they bring it back. I really cannot bear it.

Davros · 26/02/2019 09:15

I'm glad it wasn't only me who thought it wasn't great. Let's hope it improves

Banjax · 26/02/2019 09:18

We were so disappointed. It was more of a parody of magaine programs than AP. I mean, where was he? It was like seing Steve Coogan play somebidy completely different (Richard Madeley??)

Savoury99 · 26/02/2019 09:18

I'm a huge fan of Steve Coogan. I so wanted it to funny. At first I didn't feel it but there were parts that made me laugh. Hope it gets better.

Savoury99 · 26/02/2019 09:21

Yes, Alan was tame. I want more crazy Alan.

Loved the old episodes such as "Lynn, these are sex people".

Clawdy · 26/02/2019 09:34

Hopefully now we won't have to keep watching that unfunny, endlessly played clip about the glass of water, it's been doing my head in. Angry

Savoury99 · 26/02/2019 19:38

ThreeFish

I'm watching Warren and don't think it''s as funny. Just shows how we are all different.
