That elaborate animation of an entire house just to explain organising a drawer 😂
yes very funny
And it comes off as an esoteric sorting algorithm.
Also he doxes himself 😂
😆
I love the subtle lines that usually need a second watch to pick them up. "There's a boy's eye" and "Nosh is cockney for meal" are just two brilliant examples.
classic Alan.. "the toughest teenagers in Wiltshire".
I burst out laughing when he said 'and to a lesser extent Ken'
@@dougburr4192 MILK
Him explaining the old tv networks is like me explaining why the internet was more fun in the 90s early 00s to kids born in 03 that I work with
The internet was great in the early 00s back when it was still called ‘surfing the net’ before everyone was doing it and there was no social media.
Mid to late 2000s. Internet was getting sufficiently fast enough to download a movie under an hour, social media didn't reign supreme like it does now and megaupload et al.
Yup. Ive been there too
“My only friend was a ping-pong ball that I named ball pong ping “ 😂😂
Please tell me someone else noticed the 10 king Road reference!..(the fake address AP gave a copper when busted for stealing a traffic cone back in 97).... Its that attention to detail that makes partridge the greatest comedy character of all time 😂
That’s superb
It really is
That's first class
10 on 10
Watched this loads of times and only just noticed, love it
The way he explained Carlton and Grenada taking over was actually pretty badass.
Funniest part
Ha ha ha.... you couldn’t make it up
David Cameron started off as chairman of Carlton Television. Just sayin’
"These were some of the toughest teenagers in the clink: Leeroy, Smithy...and to a lesser extent Ken".
Why to a lesser extent Ken do you think? Is it because he's Asian?
@@BarterTom No, just because Alan thought he looked a bit less tough than the other two and Alan can't help but insult people whenever he opens his mouth.
KKEEENNNN
@@thesprawl2361 True but isn't Alan a little bit of a racist? I might have just made that up.
@@BarterTom Yes, that's probably a bit of it.
Although Alan would never admit it.
Lifelong Partridge fan here. And this is one of the best sketches he’s done. Absolute goldust
Back of the net!
Cash back!
Stangeways..but you be the judge
Fellow Partridgeologist here; been a fan since his The Day Today TV debut. (Circa 1994) And I can indeed confirm; with a certificate I've written myself if need be, that this is indeed, classic Partridge!
This is perfect for daft lads
It was the ITV history lesson that catapulted Alan to the top of the prison pecking order, by convincing the rest of the inmates that he was completely insane.
lol
"My only friend a ping pong ball I'd named Ball Pong Ping"
“All wrapped up with a pretty little bow... ha ha ha, you couldn’t make it up.”
It's actually genius
“After spending what seemed like an hour with the governor”
Full of little missable lines like this!
3:57 10 King Road is the fake address Alan gives the police way back in "I'm Alan Partridge".
genius observation
You mean Bill Carr
Ha well spotted
Was that when Alan and Michael stole the traffic cone?
Yeah that’s the one. Bill Carr from Ipswich.
Okay but that utensils idea could have legs
Totally! Exploring the merits of utensil promotion and relegation is a splendid idea!
It's how computer data caches work.
It is bubble sort
I'm using that
I 100% do this anyway and was so pleased to see my ideas validated.
That utensils segment was genius!
I have just served a 2 years 2 month sentence in an adult prison and after watching this episode I went around saying “I’ll leave that in your capable hands” to the screws. Only I got it but it was a way of staying sane. 😂
What crimes did you commit?
@@MsBettyboo01 buggered a heron.
Got you on the old jeans rule?
Are you not ashamed to be such a burden on the average taxpayer?
@@MsBettyboo01 Traffic cone theft.
I think his summing up of the ITV merger to the group of young inmates is sublime!🤣
Alan Partridge never fails to amuse me when I'm feeling down. Brilliant.
"Leroy, Smithy and to a lesser extent Ken". 😂 Such a fantastic line.
The kitchen drawer system is brilliant! I'm actually going to use it.
The ITV analogy to get closer to these delinquents is pure genius
Genius what?? WAKE UP NO ONE THINKS THIS IS FUNNY AND NEVER HAVE DONE!
@@bennym5244 Bash your arse!
"Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to go meet the lads for a morning nosh!" 😂
The second I saw the Governer I started chanting "Tell you what, tell you what...It's 9 and a half thousand pounds"
The ITV regions reference 😂👏🏻
That drawer thing is actually a good idea to be fair!
“There’s a boys eye” 😂
holy crap I only just noticed that! kinda creepy but also hilarious detail
“He says the boys nicknamed him Strangeways because he used to work there. But I’ll let you be the judge” 😂
Reading out archive TV listings for the sheer heck of it, really is the worth of boast worlds. Armchair Thriller is actually brilliant. I was pleased to see Alan mention it.
I love it when partridge tries to talk 'street ' .
“You blew it kid” 😆
"Nosh is cockney for meal" 😆
How he described organising the drawer actually made a lot of sense. At the end of say a month you could discard the least used item and replace it with another item that you may potential use in the future , Spice World.
1:00 "There's a boy's eye."
I remember all those regional tv channel variations. Well explained Alan
Me too.... unfortunately 😂
And they were all crap! I remember discussing the series Tintin with a colleague who came from Coventry. I watched it on Rediffusion he on ATV. I said we only ever seemed to get one episode - The Crab with the Golden Claw. He said the same but his was Red Rackhams Treasure! Variety of the most pathetic kind !!!
You couldn’t make it up
there's a boys eye
Imagine ITV is a housing estate...
Brand new sentence
All wrapped up with a pretty little bow ha ha ha you couldn’t make it up
@@BradleyBDN Ahaaaa that killed me.
"It slowly dawned on me that Morris was asking questions he knew he and I both knew the answers too, which felt like cheating, then again altough a bit simplistic for the likes of me, it was perfect for daft lads"
“If you’ll Excuse Me, I have to join a group of young men for a morning nosh.”🤣
That kitchen idea is actually pretty good
It appears to be happy hour at Pete and Bernie’s philosophical steakhouse.
That eye looking through the door is terrifying
It’s like the huge plasma screen tele on the lounge wall of a five bedroom executive house newly built on the outskirts of Norwich! Aha
The governor speech is brilliant writing and delivery.
I lost it at the detailed animation. It's like a look into Alan's head.
Holy spleen
10 King Road? Genius callback
Cashback!
A Partridge amongst the prisoners.
New Alan Partridge:
Fair, tamper-proof and great for your mental health.
And Roger Moore gets another mention! 👏👏👏 I'm watching Crossplot this evening. Great fun!
And to a lesser extent, KEN.
"We could sort these tarts right out"
Carlton and Granada sound like proper names for the fiction of their characters in this story.
Ahhh how I miss the old TV networks.....Central,Tyne Tees,Thames Television, Granada etc
I honestly think the new show is just as funny if not funnier than the classic AP. The difference? No laugh track to tell people without much of a sense of humour when to laugh. There are a ton of clever lines in this but they pass by without fanfare. YOU have to see the humour in them. Of course someone might be reading this who thinks they do in fact have a good sense of humour and that they still don't find the new stuff very funny and that's okay, maybe it's missing something that made the old stuff work for you besides the canned laughter BUT I still maintain that This Time series 2 is up there with I'm Alan Partridge and Knowing Me Knowing You and I hope I'm not alone in thinking that.
I agree, the first 2 episodes have made me laugh just as much as classic AP!
@@lukew7343 Really glad it's not just me then :)
Coogan has changed the voice, look and mannerisms of Partridge. To longstanding Partridge fans from On The Hour, The day today, KMKY and IAP this character is now unrecognisable. The character has had its personality ripped out and replaced.
Partridge smothered chocolate mousse over Jill and found it hilarious taunting Bridie McMann about Lesbian slang names.
In this series of This Time Alan is pleading not to be reported because a makeup artist played a joke on him. I get the satire on today's society but its not actually that funny. Partridge is supposed to be a spoof of egotistical z list TV personalities , not a satire on the state of social change.
Both Coogan and the new writers are completely over thinking everything.
@@nudisco300 Some interesting points there. In an online interview with BFI Steve addressed the fact that Alan's character has changed a lot by saying that Alan has developed as a person and that one would be quite different 20 years later, I know I am. You have to remember that in I'm Alan Partridge he is having a breakdown. Everything in his life has gone to shit, his marriage, his career, his housing situation and in that situation you would go a bit mad but he's had a lot of time to move past that. The breakdown in I'm Alan Partridge is itself a new development not present in the original chat show. However, Alan's most defining personality traits remain today: his pedantry, his social awkwardness and his tendency to get bogged down with insignificant details. As for his new voice, one can easily pick up a different accent in a new town. It does happen.
As for the emergence of overt political commentary, I can see how that would be jarring for some. After all, Alan always used to be pretty right wing. Reading as he did the Daily Mail and making homophobic comments. Nowadays Alan is aware of how going to a public school helps you get a job at the BBC. It is, one can imagine, just Coogan's way of expressing his own left wing values, which one could say means breaking character. I enjoy it and find it funny, but it's a fair criticism of the writing. Again, one could imagine a person flipping from one wing of politics to the other over a twenty year period, but it isn't the norm.
I don’t find it funny because the writing is very poor. The classic AP shows stand up to rewatches, these new shows don’t. As for the laughter track missing that has no relevance, it’s usage isn’t a cue for those that don’t know when to laugh, to suggest that is nonsense, The successful Carry On films never had a laughter track, audiences react because the writing is good. The other element which you’ve overlooked that is missing is Armando Iannucci. He’s the driving force that would’ve made this show distinctive quality entertainment that’s leagues ahead of the rest. Armando Iannucci follows on from a long line of talent that knows comedy inside out, Geoffrey Perkins was another master of producing great shows.
A boys eyes comment😂... his breakdown of the TV companies😂
The best part is that he thinks the prison guards that are in the hotel I like the main staff in a hotel Allen you make me laugh so much
And to a lesser extent, *KEN*
This video and comments are the most British things ever
PRISONER: What channel's this?
ALAN: This is Central I haven't got to the regional variations yet!😁😁
Ah yes, slight error there then, he should have said ATV not Central!😁😁
Ha, I like it! Although 'productions' is actually what the 'P' stands for!😁😁😁
Why did I notice he used nearly all the toilet roll in one night...😆
hence the tissue issue
"perfect for daft lads"
“Holy spleen“ 😂
Comedy genius! Say no more!
“There’s a boys eye” 👁
I actually got really interested in his read out of the TV schedule.
Alan explaining the history of ITV franchising to a group of disinterested youth offenders is maybe quintessential Partridge. Distilled.
0:55 the eye in the door lol
Nosh is cockney for meal
"There's a boys eye"
the eye gets me everytine
You blew it kid
He gained their respect I think
ITV and a broken WC!
Lovely stuff 🙂
Alan Partridge series are a good laugh..
"thats Carlton and Granada..."
HMP Ravenhill will never be the same again
I like the utensil idea.
I like the utensil idea too. Not sure how it would work if you've got the utensils and cutlery in the same drawer though
@@Bromley68True it would not work together, would need separate draws.
I have to admit that would be me in prison, talking about stuff from the 80's to the youth.
Great to see Partridge back on TV such a funny Charictor.
School ??
And the girl is great too. A typical simpering BBC female announcer acting so caring but a hard faced cow underneath! Simon doesn't ring true, but is quite amusing. Partridge is still vile, but more self aware than he was, which diminishes the comedy a bit ! As for the bit part players. Lynn is totally underused. The black girl reporter is a bit contrived, but the oily presenter now engaged to Sally is superb! The BBC is full of his type !!
@@johnsaunders2109 I think part of the problem is that this is a completely different type of show then the comedy sitcom and those jokes would not work. I think Lyne is in the show because they don't know how to make a story make sence with him having a new personal assistant when she stays with him despite his horrible behaviour. This Alan seems to be more based off of the origanal one.
Andrew Neil looks different
Same depressing Tory as ever !!!
There's a Boy's eye.........
LOL
Astonishing
Exposing the true criminal... Regional TV
At least they get comfortable beds..
Needless to say…
Needles to say
My man
I had the last laugh.
@@19dazhogan82 ...i take drugs!
Incredible
“What seems like an hour”
Seemed.
My latrine has a tissue issue lol.
That’s a MBA level summary of the ITV franchise model , and subsequent merger and floatation :)
watched this loads - only just seen the eye hahahaha
never interfere with anyones freedom. That was the mantra a prison governer imparted to me, makes sense.
America here....I miss living in the UK and the humor.
Oh GODDDDDDD.
I was so confused if this is serious or comedy first. But I knew I know the guy's face. lol
That animation!
....behind you!
Aha!
Boys eye 👁
🤣🤣
I wish I watched this stoned. The explainer graphics for kitchen utensil utilisation was a surreal segue, totally irrelevant yet perfectly integrated.
I put my essential kitchen utensils on hooks, like scissors and can openers, they all have holes in them for this purpose. The knives and forks have their own trays and the rest is chucked in the draw all easy enough to find. Alan had obviously gone demented overnight naming his ping pong ball and thinking of unnecessary utensil ordering, thankfully not some kind of dirty protest.
