The actor who plays the firearms cop you seemed to recognise is Sean Pertwee. He played Alfred Pennyworth in the US series Gotham and was in the UK horror film Dog Soldiers, among many other film and TV appearances. His father was the much loved British actor Jon Pertwee who played Doctor Who in the 1970s and who was such a large part of my childhood.

It's the reflection in his glasses at 3:35 which gets me every time. Subtle humour is far funnier to me than the more "in your face" stuff.

I love watching your videos. As an Essex boy (from the UK) it's lovely to watch other people react to our comedy. I get that sometimes you don't get it but your reactions are priceless. Thank you for liking our comedy as much as I love your American comics.

The song is Roachford Cuddly Toy, if I rememeber correctly.

YES! I really needed this today!

The song at the start is Cuddly Toy by Andrew Roachford. Used to be a favourite of mine too.

“I’m Alan Partridge” is as funny as comedy will ever get.

That was fab. 😂 ♥ 2:18 I have that exact pic of AP in a coaster that I made. 🙂 My wife left me soon afterwards. 😃 Back of the net! ⚽ Glad you enjoyed this. I do hope you try a full episode of one of Partridge's series, the tv stuff is far superior to the film - though I did enjoy the film. I'd highly recommend; 'Knowing Me, Knowing You with Alan Partridge' (1994) is excellent. In this Alan is a rising star and has his own chat show but he is a very tactless and inept presenter and is often extremely rude to his guests. 30 min episodes. 'I'm Alan Partridge' (1997 + 2002) is outstanding. After killing a man live on air, Alan's career has taken a sharp decline. His wife has left him. And he now lives in a travel tavern near a motorway, he desperately tries to get his career back on track with the help of his assistant Lynn. But makes no attempt to get his wife back (she's a fat cow). 30 min episodes.

Great track, Cuddly Toy by Roachford

The Deputy Chief Constable is played by the incredible Anna Maxwell Martin, who is one of the greatest actresses of our time. Her show Motherland about a group of mums and a stay at home dad is wonderful, one for Queen B to enjoy as parenthood looms, love to you all x

STEVE COOGAN IS HILARIOUS IN EVERYTHING HE'S DONE!!! REMEMBER "NIGHT AT MUSEUM" HE'S THE ROAN GENERAL OCTAVIUS (MINUATURES).❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍❤❤❤

Excellent thanks for watching this (I was in the crowd in the movie as it's local to where I live in Norfolk 🤣) like others of said definitely watch the shows if you can! I know it's harder to watch BBC shows over there.

brilliant reaction, loved it

The song at the beginning is called "cuddly toy" - by Roachford

Sean Pertwee. Superb. Dog Soldiers. Worth a gander.

I’ve recently been watching this again and I was hoping you would find it! I watch all your stuff big live from Glasgow 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Alan and the receptionist! Just clips watch that and you will want to watch everything this guy has done he’s a genius 🍀👍🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Never seen, Thank you nutty boy for showing. Laughed too on occasion. 🇬🇧👵😊

3:24 Alan is looking at naughty images they reflect in his glasses

That jingle has no right being so fucking awesome.

So before this alan had a chat show called 'knowing me, knowing you with alan partridge' (one series) then there were two series of seasons called im alan partridge which is about when he loses his talk show. Then there's two seasons of webisodes when he works for North Norfolk digital. Lots of viewing material

I'm Alan Partridge series will always hold a special place on my hard drive, right next to Inbetweeners and Johnny Vegas' Ideal series.

"The Parole Officer" is a great Steve Coigan movie with a few GOT faces you'll recognise... Cersei and Stannis

as per the other comments - definitely do "I'm alan partridge" EPIC series

Should watch the british film sightseers, another comedy

We got this film on dvd when it came out. It’s like an anthology to I’m Alan partridge.

I've seen a lot of Alan Partridge stuff but have not seen this before. From what I saw I thought it was quite good.

I'm on pilko watching binge an your notification came up and had to watch. Boomer I love your humour an reactions, brilliant mate 👏

To get even more context about Alan, you should delve into KMKY (Knowing Me Knowing You). It was first a radio series then a TV series, a chat show but was cut short due to 'an incident' in the very last episode. Very, very funny. Both were well before the TV series I'm Alan Partridge. Even before KMKY he appeared regularly on The Day Today... it's certainly part of his story, and it was a great programme (a satire on news hosted by Chris Morris and created by Morris and Armando Iannucci, tonnes of other content to get into from both of them...Iannucci also co created and wrote KMKY) but there's little need to go back that far, I'd recommend KMKY.

You should watch the Scottish sitcom - Still Game. Although I’d recommend having subtitles on for that one! 😂

The bit where the police tell Lynn that Alan has her as his next of kin, she thinks a moment and says "take me to him" - genuinely makes me tear up.

They are all different because of the teams of writers involved. Earlier Partrdge involved Armando Iannucci, Peter Baynham, Stewart Lee and Richard Herring. Later ones were with Rob and Lee Gibbons and so there are subtle but noticeable differences.

Yes, that is "the chick from the Inbetweeners movie who was shacking up with Neil", i.e. Jessica Knappett, who also wrote and starred in "Drifters" - about a group of post-university, Inbetweener-esque girls - must be on your list! (originally Channel 4 / All4)

The song is "Cuddly Toy" by Roachford from 1988 :D

I always felt that this didn't escalate as much as the Simon Pegg trilogy, but should have done. Steve Cougan should have called Pegg up. "We're just not there with the third act yet, old chap. You did the zombie thing, so what should we do with this one, old mate?" Pegg: "My advice, old chap, is to fuck the budget and go nuclear as soon as possible. It's the only way." If Alpha Papa had somehow found a way to include a nuclear war sub plot, it would have been appropriate and I would have enjoyed it much more. I Pegg had written it, and Edgar Wright had directed, the nuclear war plot for Alpha Papa would have been the start point. But Cougan thinks he's so much better than literally everyone else in his industry. So this is what we got. Funny in parts, but mostly weak. A real missed opportunity for a top class farce.

This is all filmed about 20 mins away from where I live. Norfolk has always been a big part of Alan Partridge and one of the few things that it's known for. Glad you enjoyed! Check out Norwich when you get chance!

american comedy= aggressive, shouty...british comedy = awkward, understated. its no coincidence you like the guns and violence part being from the united states of england

You need to start the Partridge journey from the start, (maybe including his Sketches on The Day Today and Brass Eye) Knowing Me, Knowing You (Aha). Then both series of I'm Alan Partridge.

Not watched your reaction yet but l hope you “get “ Alan , l love this guy . I was thinking of recommending him to you..

@Coxy_Wrecked

Жыл бұрын

You don't need to go all the way back to The Day Today but you'd perhaps need to start at Knowing Me Knowing You because Alan's character and current situation/predicament in I'm Alan Partridge needs context/back story. I would imagine a lot of the jokes and Alan's nuances in the movie would be lost on any 'Alan virgins' watching.

Mid Morning Matters is probably my favourite AP writing.

The strike team guy is Sean Pertwee, you may have seen him as young Alfred in the Gotham TV series?

another series worth watching is taskmaster if you like the inbetweeners it’s hosted by Greg Davies the head teacher

Me and the wife tried to get into Alpha November Alpha Lima but it wasn't really our cup of tea.

You have to watch the shows! You've done a great job so far of reacting most of my faves, and Alan Partridge is a massive gap in your output (just from a personal preference POV)

The partridge universe is best enjoyed in the order it was made as its full of injokes and self references, especially if you go near the books amd podcasts. At least starting with "knowing me knowing you"

Craig David values wildlife 😂😂😂

Couldn't show THIS movie in the US. It certainly _wouldn't_ be a comedy, anyway. There, it's almost cliché that when HR sacks someone, they return armed to the teeth, shooting the place & the people to kingdom come.

I think the detractors are way too harsh on Alpha Papa, it's not the sitcom by any means but it's up there with classic Partridge in my books.

Please do four lions next dude!

O-o you been watching Bo Selecta?

Will watch this later tonight something to look forward to in the wee small hours!
