I listen to Alan Partridge’s audio books and podcasts each evening before sleep to help me cope with the waking nightmare of the reality we all live in, I combine that with looking in the mirror and slapping myself round the face while screaming “you’ve got to get through this”.

Don't forget the Radio 4 series too, still stands up as top notch Alan. The 7th episode is great, a behind the scenes mockumentary - the only time Carol appears in his work. Even though she's just wailing in the background. Jack a knack a nory.

@@morgsta54 Knowing me, knowing you with Alan Partridge. 7x half hour episodes. Same format as the original TV series, disastrous chat show. Every episode ending with 'and on that bombshell' The guests are played by Rebecca Front, Patrick Marber, Doon Mckihan (sp?) And David Schneider. It is top class early AP, sits alongside KMKYWAP very well. It was pre the first TV series. About 1992-1993. Its definitely on audible and yt

It says more about the honours system that Coogan hasn't and probably will never receive an honour, despite being up there as one of the most popular British comedians of his generation. Coogan's comedy is about class structure in the UK, and to use the words of Partridge he is a well known voter of the red team and a republican. He called out Michael MacIntyre and fellow monarchist Rob Brydon MBE for attending.

This is as good as the best of Peter Cook. I think Coogan and the Gibbons were in a "flow state" of excellence where they couldn't do any wrong. Even the asides "What more can you say about fucking horses?" were Olga Corbett brilliant. Baby Cow! Another Alan film in twelve months please! Xxx
