This is a very informative program. I did not know that swimming was illegal in Ireland. That would be good to know as a tourist from Canada because it is illegal to not swim here.
it's 11:20, this is on the hour.. thus begins a brilliant experience. if i don't laugh at everything chris morris says (or does) then i automatically assume there's a joke in there somewhere, and it is then my job to find it; in this way i learn, as i laugh.
I'll eat my own nose if this wasn't an influence on the radio stations in the Grand Theft Auto games. They had stuff like "Do trees cause baldness? Are women made from sand? Has the future already happened - somewhere else?"
But the council are unrepentant "There's no pleasing these tossers, you clear the streets so they can unload their vans and they crap in your face" Classic Morris
Currently watching the TV series with my 14 year old and it's disturbing the way it still makes perfect sense to him based on news he sees today (all I have to do is tell him who the politicians are and their modern equivalents)
“How do you feel about being one of the dim and feckless individuals who didn’t avoid catching a disease?” “What clearly rather hopeless measures did you take to stop yourself catching a disease?” “Do you have any idea how you could avoid again becoming one of those bad idiots who goes around catching a disease?” If only someone would ask these questions today.
Stewart Lee wrote the Alan Partridge character first. In an interview with Coogan (around 2015 i think) they discussed it, Lee requested £250k for it! Coogan brought Partridge to life, no doubt, am just mentioning the history. I think this is why some of the sports desk content is cut out of this.
I swear to God, once when I was bicycling in Washington, I was approached by a bum with filled-up trash bag who wanted to know if I was a sherrifs deputy who he was supposed to meet at that location. The trash bag seemed to be filled up with twigs, or something like that. I went elsewhere fast.😐
"It's 11:20, this is On The Hour" Such a brilliant first line for the series.
They certainly started as they meant to go on!
That clearly went straight over my head lol
Ha I totally missed that for 30 years 😂
reminds me of the opening line from 1984
"It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen"
Thanks for uploading these. Everyone should be able to appreciate the greatness of Chris Morris.
And thus begins my Partridge binge! Thanks for these, was so happy to see that someone uploaded them :)
For years now, I can never hear the name "Jacob Rees-Mogg" without thinking "Sir Micheal Cogg Lucifer".
I love this kind of anarchic comedy … the satire is pin sharp. Chris Morris is superb … try The Day Today and Brass Eye too … superb 🐷
First ever listen. In hysterics. Chris Morris is very clever and deserves a Knighthood for services to entertainment!
In hysterics. That's the funniest thing I've heard in a long time. Who talks like that anymore
A night hood is the last thing that Chris needs. Say no to night hoods.
@@bradshrinkelstein904 he’d probably turn it down anyway
susan's regrets is the best part. that sound manipulation gets me every time.

I'd never noticed that before! 😄
"I had to read out a story about a member of the royal family who was ill, and I said she was 111." Brilliant. I can imagine a news reader doing this.
chris morris is a mother fucking genius
Rab Butler.
@@pezn2077Shut up Peter.
Classic alternative comedy from a complete legend.

Most certainly. Rockstar, then DMC, originate here in the UK
This is the first time I'm listening to this, and all I can think of are the Weazel News hits in GTA V.
Why have I never heard of this show until now. Genius. haha
They found my blood on their fists and boots, and they found my fingerprints all over my hands
I question this forensicness myself.
Did he have/know the ability to sweat?
man like wibble loool
lol very topical right now 7:50 'how do you feel about being one of the dim and feckless individuals who didnt avoid - catching a disease?'
Great writing. Great execution.
Thank you
Thanks for uploading these episodes! Great to hear them.
- AAAAND!
- Can you repeat that, please!
Genius
This is British comedy. Hysterically funny. Spike had a great successor.
The official listening to everything Alan Partridge chronologically starting point
The mad bastard even invented ASMR at 20:49 😂
22:10 that Barry Cryer laugh 😂
8:42 "Serious Tone of Voice"
Chris Morris was the voice of our generation
i love I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue and this mock at 21:42 is so accurate
But the council are unrepentant "There's no pleasing these tossers, you clear the streets so they can unload their vans and they crap in your face"
Classic Morris
leeeeeves. some leeeeves.
For Partridge fans, his appearances are at:
7:27
and:
13:13
thank you
This is still perfect writing.
The weird tape speeding up thing to introduce "Gavin Strength" kills me every time
2:15 - Sir Michael Cog Lucifer "None of them are church goers" 😁 Dim and Feckless 😂 Swimming is banned in Dublin 😂
The Tony Blackburn impression is insane.
that accident at big Street station sounded horrific RIP stump wavers :'(
Sir Michael Cogg-Lucifer HA HA HA!
@17:32 "the fridge doesn't fart when you pull the meat out".
Brilliant
It will NEVER date. Forever relevant. Thank you all involved.

‘……Good morning……here is the news tonight……’😂
I assume the "Leaves" sketch is a parody of adverts for mineral water like Evian.
More oxygen needed says France.
Jean Michel Jarre has given them loads.
Then in 2020 they really said it 🤣
“How do you feel about being one of the dim and feckless individuals who didn’t avoid catching a disease?”
“What clearly rather hopeless measures did you take to stop yourself catching a disease?”
“Do you have any idea how you could avoid again becoming one of those bad idiots who goes around catching a disease?”
If only someone would ask these questions today.
Pretty sure it's meant to be a satire on how the media treated AIDS victims.
15:34 Obviously during the _wilderness years!_
Brilliant.

Lee also came up with Jed Maxwell, or at least he was based on a real experience Lee had with (believe it or not) future radio DJ Christian O’Connell
@@kylemclachlan8651 What a funny story.
Steevtee Ahhh
Peter Ohanraha-harahan was also kinda created by Lee&Herring. Herring mentioned it was inspired by an ill-informed presenter he heard on radio.
Richard Herring has taken credit for Partridge dozens of times on his podcast, even to Steve Coogan's face lol
Is it large?
At 7:30 first appearance of Alan Partridge.
I want this on podcast please!!!!
LEEEAAAVVESSSS
THEY ARE LEEEEAVVVVEESSS
Need another public health campaign by On The Hour
I still don't know if it's large or not.
Hey! MY police chief is also named Michael Cog Lucifer!😄
Thank you.
Is this the one that has all Lee and Herring material edited out?
Yeah, it is. Due to some verbal disagreements.
Monderfile WesHall What does that mean?
Read the stewart lee book.
Monderfile WesHall
give us the gist pls
+James Durand-Wood must have been such a vast amount of material - LOL
Sir Michael Cog Lucifer
"Leaves" sounds to me very much like William Bealby-Wright of Doggerel Bank and the Barrow Poets.
I'm fuckin screaming
Sir Michael Cog-Lucifa
Leaves! Some Leaves!
18:50

Genius daring to make plebs the object of derision. Try that these days and you'll be sent to the gulag.
The Kylie Minogue in the background is getting me.
