Im alan partridge was the peak of this character, one of the best comedy series ever made.
They've re-badged it, you fool.
One of the finest sitcoms ever in my opinion. And don't reply to this comment, I'll just type over you!
Would you type over me if I 100% agreed with you?
@@UA-camTookMyNickname.WhyNot BUT I CAN TYPE OVER TAB AND GET YOU!

@Nigel You're not driving a Mini Metro!
@@Keeleysound they've re badged it you fool! 😂
Alan Partridge is one of the greatest comedy characters ever made! Watched every episode! Absolutely brilliant dialogue and casting. Steve Coogan's a genius.
I'm just a fan Alan, your biggest fan
At least Alan was courteous enough to say "I'll just speak over you" and attempt to save Lynne some time and effort.
One of the few comedies that never fails to make me laugh no matter how many times I've seen it. Keep 'em coming!
It actually improves with each watch.
I've seen Coogan in movies, but I saw I'm Alan Partridge for the first time today. I like it but not as much as Fry and Laurie, which has much more range.
I'll second that!
Yesterday, my 14yr old son (big Partridge fan) was moaning that a new pair of school trousers he wore to school are 'charcoal grey' and not the normal black. His mates commented on them, so naturally his reaction was to inform us that he's never wearing them again. We tried to reason with stuff like "but, they're virtually black" and "I'm sure your friends won't mention them again", and "we'll keep them as an emergency pair", to which he responded by talking over us repeating the phrase "I'm not driving a Mini Metro. I'm not driving a Mini Metro"
To which I hope you responded with some variant of telling him to be quiet and do as he's told, so he doesn't go forward in life thinking that that sort of behaviour is ok?
Brilliant. Sounds like something my boy would do.
@@mordecai2005 Wait why is saying you're only going to wear black trousers instead of grey trousers unacceptable behaviour??
@@Nightwing-bh2tn Its about how you say it. Talking over people and refusing to listen isn't an appropriate way to handle a disagreement.
@@mordecai2005 Yeah I agree but I don't think they said he was talking over them. He was probably just having a laugh referencing Partridge.
You know, British comedy stands out as world class. All the classics that were ever made - Only Fools, Fawlty Towers, The Office, Two Ronnies etc. They were perfect. But this for me, this is at the very top. I have no words to describe its genius. All I can do is watch, laugh, cry and admire with every viewing. I never get bored of it.
It’s class but not all series were as good as the 1st.
@@johnmc3862yea the day today was utter genius but like the 11 oclock show it was gradually introducing him to us like ali g then also the way borat was slowly bought to life. Knowing me knowing you and this first series of IAP are the peak for me. Series 3 is good but does not match up to this as hes sort of bounced back. The the later stuff is hit and miss. Mid morning matters has some gold but this time I cant get on board with.
What do you think about the pedestrianisation of Norwich city centre?
Calling his production company Pear Tree is so perfectly terrible
@bh617
Oh right, I've just got it.
☺
It’s genius! Give me a second series, ya shit!
Eh ? Oh!
I JUST REALISED THAT haha
I dont get it
Get Alan partridge to present top gear.
That would be hilarious. Start a petition.
It'd be amazing for Alan to do a review of the Renault Megane. Not my words, the words of top gear magazine
Clarkson was part of his inspiration for Allan, so...he kinda already did present top gear...for years
Not my words Carol, the words of TOP GEAR MAGAZINE
Clarkson loves Partridge, hence “and on that bombshell”
The chemistry between Alan & Lyn works really well hence its so funny esp Lyn's facial expressions of frustration & bemusement
Still good news about the chocolate oranges 😂
I'm going to have that engraved on my gravestone.
Such a genius line😂😂😂
Chocolate oranges are available from Rawlinsons.
@@zakelwe I'm having " spliced three ways this would make the lions share of a pogonpohl granite work surface"
@@Alex.1739 as I live on the outskirts of Stoke I'll be buried locally with 'Lynne, some of these people have come from Stoke' on my gravestone
Whenever i hear the name Benjamin Netanyahu on the news i, without exception, call out 'let it go Lynn,you're never going to meet him'.
They couldn't have got the casting more perfect than Felicity Montagu as Lynn.
This is my favourite comedy series of all time. This three minute clip is just brilliant jokes, one after another.
I think Coogan's acting was at its best in this series. I also love the latest stuff, but sometimes Partridge can seem like a bit of a caricature. In this series he plays it really natural
Best Alan is uncomfortable in his own skin The Day Today era Alan
IRH back when he was under the thumb of Chris!
Totally agree, this is also my favourite series for the reasons you described. I think it's the most tragic Alan Partridge series because you really get to see how sad and pathetic he is, which makes the jokes more poignant.
This series is the best. 3 is good, but doesn't quite reach the heights of 2.
Alan's azimuth.
"LYNN ...I'LL JUST SPEAK OVER YOU!!"
I do this to my sister
Sack Lynn for being unloyal....disloyal
Anyone else automatically think "they've rebranded it you fool" every time they see an actual Rover 100?
You don't see too many around these days.
If only Alan had endorsed it, they would have been valuable classics by now
Actually the Rover Metro was a very different car to the Austin Metro.
Anytime ANYTHING has been rebranded!
I actually think rebadged
Sally Phillips was such a crush when this was on.
25 years later and she hasn't changed a bit, she was on Taskmaster a couple of years ago and still looked gorgeous.
oh god. this brings me immense joy
Yes and still today😁
Didn't expect to see you here 😂
It’s absolute genius isn’t it.
That was classic intercourse
Never fails to bring a smile 🤣
"Got your big plate Alan?"
'...Yes.'
You've got erm chocolate on yer mouth Mr.Partridge *yes ive been eating moose...*
A classic line!
@@mans1680yer mooth
Best era of AP ever. The first series of this was the best he’s ever done.
I'd agree with that, but that doesn't mean it was funny. Is it me or am in the minority that Partridge is uncreative, lazy & panders to stereotypes
@@CalRoberts-gx3jtOver thinking it lad.
That clip was a tour de force of partridge quotes
"You got your big plate?"
This guy is like the British version of Larry David. Even less personal success with greater delusions. Truly a timeless character.
@DnB and Psy Production think coogan ws in several curb episodes, I seem to remember he even was a recurring character in CYE
@@juanaltredo2974 he was in one single episode.
@@dbg32 I dont know why I thought his character was recurrent, perhaps he went uncredited later, but in any case he did appear in that, not sure why you felt the need to correct me, other than ridiculous pedantry
@@juanaltredo2974 he’ll just speak over you
Curb Your Enthusiasm is much funnier than this
This is more like if Larry David didn't put any effort into his writing
Maybe I grew up under a rock but I don't get why people find Patridge funny or relatable
They've re-badged it, you fool
She's like Burt Reynolds. She's dedicated, but she's got a moustache
@ christschinwon
"She's like Burt Reynolds. She's dedicated, but she's got a moustache"
Seems strange to happen upon your comment when Burt died 2 days ago
Your always going on about Benjamin Netanyahu.. Your never gonna meet him! 😂😂
frowning ham You're**
@@swanningabout tosser
@@darrenreid5409 Wow, what a snowflake you are. Alan Partridge would've corrected him too.
Funniest bit lol Lynne's facial expression is,classic!!!
@@darrenreid5409 dwad
I once owned a mini metro, Alan was right to stick to his guns.
I had sex with my future wife to be in the back of Mini metro 1.0 in 1989 at Watford NCP car park. Her grandmother recommended it as it was a "ladies car" .. thankfully true on that evening ....
You wouldn't want to have an accident in one though.
@@zakelwe That was classic intercourse!
How he only considers Rovers at the time .
@@zakelwe back of the net!
My first car was a mini metro
"See that 12 inches"
I keep it in my room
Alan is definitely at his nastiest in this series!
At least he didn't shoot anyone to death in this one.
See that. 12 inches.
Always my favourite intro.
I can read you like a book and not a very good book
@@davelong9055 Bravo 2zero
unlike brave two zero which gets better with every read
"randy mcnob"
"Still good news about the Chocolate Oranges"
"They've re-badged it, you fool" has become a mainstay of my lexicon in the relevant context. I'm utterly ashamed of myself, lol.
Perhaps the greatest comedic character of modern times.
Nothing on TV comes close to this in 2020
Lyn is a great character
How the BBC employed this man, I ll never know and I worked with many a TV comedians in television!!!!
So much funnier than ‘This Time With Alan Partridge’
Which is also good to be fair, but this is one of the best comedy series ever
One of the best clips. Brilliant
An absolute classic. I've watched this series so many times and it never fails to make me laugh. 'Smell my cheese' and 'give me a second series'.
“I can read you like a book, and not a very good book. Certainly not Bravo Two Zero by Andy McNab, which actually improves with every read.”
One of my favorite ever lines in any show.
"God no, I'm old enough to be her father.....well, her older brother. Either way, it's incest" 😂
he's coming back to the BBC "back of the net" alan
Mark Sellwood He's back on the BBC gravy train.
@@LilySaintSin wish i was...
Where he mentions the plate 'it's 12 inches, i keep it in my room' - is that a clue to that thing he has in his drawer that everyone laughs at?
The man has standards.
I never get tired of Partridge
I misread the title of this video. I realise now that "I'm Alan Partridge" is the title of the TV series that this clip comes from. But at first glance I thought the title of the video was "I'm not driving a mini metro. I'm Alan Partridge". When you read it in his voice, it's absolutely the kind of thing he would say
Lovely stuff
The Best Of The Beatles is the best Beatles album
Wings is the band the Beatles could have been! Absolute comedy genius.
"certainly not bravo two zero by andy mcnab" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Which actually improves with every read.
Randy McNob.
Thats me bike, thats desert storm
Benjamin Netanyahu in a mini metro with a chocolate orange. There it is, Lynn's saucy afternoon escapade.
Alan Partridge is my hero
Alan is hilarious whether you are a rich man in his Rover Vitesse Hatchback or a poor man in his Vauxhall Corsa.
@the Game, Review and Reallife Channel nowadays you'd get both for £500
Lexi
"Still, great news about the chocolate Oranges" 😂
‘I can read you like a book, and not a good book, certainly not bravo 2.0 by Andy McNab. which actually improves with every read’
Just brilliant writing. :)
The gags come so thick and fast 🤣
"You're always going on about Benjamin Netanyahu [Nyetyenyahu is the truer spelling of the name - ed.]. You're never going to meet him." He's not half what I met him out to be.
Lynn is such a great actress.
This is so well written. Genuius
Needed that!
youve invalidated the warranty
So many classic lines in three minutes. Unbelievable.
This scene is probably the most quotable of the series. That and the funeral scene are the top two contenders.
“Go give it to her, Lynn”
Lunch with Tony Hayers surely takes bronze. But for me the whole house viewing and a mooch in Tandys are my top moments.
I might just go re read Bravo Two Zero now.
Comedy perfection.
Let it go Lynn, you’re never going to meet him 😂
doo-doo do dut dooooooooooo.... It's James Lance! ;)
I'll just speak over you
You're always going on about benjamin netanyahu
12" plate, I keep it in my room!! 🤣🤣
This series was a tour de France.
or a Tour de Norwich...
Don’t you mean a tour de force?
When you share some personality traits with Alan Partridge....
still, good news on the chocolate oranges
I’m a proud metro owner!
FAB Series.
Let it go Lynn you're never going to meet him!
Needless to say He had the last laugh!!
How mad is this three minutes of writing. Genius
12 inches!! 😆 Priceless.
This guys great
THE OFFICE SAckings was the most FUNNIEST CLIP IVE EVER SEEN LMAO
Seen this a million times still cracks me up
Go on try and speak over me....
no it's "go on try and finish the sentence, see what happens"
About 8 different jokes in two minutes. Brilliant writing. How the actors in the background didn't start laughing is beyone me. Be yond me.
Have you ever seen the outtakes of comedy shows. Even professional actors corpse.
Anyway, thanks for taking 2 years to reply.
They’ve rebadged it you fool
DAN!!
My dad and I quote this all the time😂
You can run a production company of 2 staff for the difference between running a Rover 800 and a Rover Metro?
It was the 90s, the minimum wage hadn't yet been introduced
He had Lynn on £8k per annum in 2002 so maybe
Lynn I’ll just speak over you 😂
"See that? 12 inches! -keep it in me room."
My first car was a Mini Metro 😆 I didn't like it particularly either but it was better than walking! Lol
"They've rebadged it ya fool" 😂
Lovely stuff.
Me the other day when one of they guys was giving rave reviews on his Dacia Duster and suggesting that I should buy one. This is coming from someone who thinks Marinas are better than BMW & Mercedes
Just to reiterate, her contract has been terminated.
dan!
Passed my test in a Mini Metro.. 5 lessons and first time pass.. Very Partridge
Actually, a Rover 820SLi was one of the best cars I've ever had....
Susan is drop dead gorgeous
Well she was Miss Norwich in the chat show
