To think Alan Partridge just isn't funny. At all!!!

DH watching the film and guffawing. I tried 10 minutes and couldn't take any more.

Never met a woman who finds it funny.

Or Monty Python.

AIBU?

Woman here.

I know that doesn’t mean that you’ve now ‘met me’, but I think it’s a brilliantly observed and incredibly funny character.

Loved it since On The Hour days.

YABU

Sorry you apparently have no sense of humour, that must be tough.

@D0lphine

What's rude about a body?

Tits?

I love it

I also love the UK office

Love anything cringy and dry, it’s very British and there are so many people that actually act like Alan in real life - so self unaware

I came here for solidarity and you're all now quoting AP at me.

This is soooo disappointing.

MN has let me down

@EmmaPaella - beat me to the punch. Absolute classic! Laughing just remembering it.

Whats your favourite TV comedy OP?

Youth hosteling with Chris Eubank

Lynn!! I've pierced my foot on a spike!!

@Lipsandlashes

I’m guessing Miranda is more your bag?

Curb your enthusiasm actually

Smell my cheese!

Anyone seen the accidental partridge account on twitter?

I love the episode with the receptionists from the hotel, and the actresses are just trying not to laugh the whole time

He's hilarious!!! Yabvu but comedy is a v personal thing.

SC annoys me in The Trip though... It's just 2 men in late middle age showing off. I reckon he's a right cock IRL.

Is the film your first experience of AP?

Start with the tv series - if you still don't like it after that there's no hope for you

Very cheap to make - do it in a pub car park

How dare you!

I think he's a funny character and well observed.

These are SEX PEOPLE!

Curb your enthusiasm

The Office

Detectorists

Just cannot stand Alan Partridge. Just do not get how it's funny

YABU it’s hilarious

Alpha Papa is funny and the opening with him singing ' cuddly toy' is hysterical, but the chat show format that was on last year was just awful.
I kind of love him and loath him in equal measure!

@daisiesonmydress

Which office

Don’t say the US version fgs

I love AP. But I hate Mrs Brown's Boys and I'm obviously hugely outnumbered there. To quote Bottom 'Teks all sorts, don't it?'

Curb your enthusiasm actually

Also love Curb. I think there are loads of similarities between Alan and Larry.
