Also, the character Poirot gets very angry whenever someone calls him French, and he snaps at them that he is not French, but Belgian. It is an Agatha Christie in-joke.
Alan's Xenophobia - a nice foresight, that brexit would win over, in 'little England'. He is after all, as Steve says, based on the average Daily Mail reader (or Viscount Rothermere puppet ...who likes a bit of EU tax avoidance

Yes these are the jokes; plus the fact that Sasha Distel is such a weird choice to represent Paris. He's not exactly a musical icon; not outside of France, anyway.
Knowing Me Knowing You With Alan Partridge Episode 4 On Friday 7th October 1994 On BBC2.
Superbly written....
It looks like Alan says 'Cheers' when the waiter brings him a coffee.
10 years and 3 thumbs up....lets change that and make it 4!
@@dnhrdI made it 16.....do you know the significance of that???
Absolutely nothing.
Excruciating.. so well done.
Knowing me Alan Partridge...
Sacking you Glen Ponda...A-Haaa,😆😆😆
RIP Glen Ponder
I think you'll find our cows went mad because they were bitten by your dogs
AH haaaaaa
😂😂😂
For some reason it makes me realise it’s even funnier than I thought when you write it down
That's an interesting view, if a little bit xenophobic!
- No French!
Xenophobia is an English word meaning small-minded fear of other nations
Classic comedy!
Paris NO longer the home of Quasimodo the Arsonist

@graemeoliver84

Two cow's in a field, one says what'd you make of this mad cow disease? The other replies doesn't affect me, I'm a duck.
Cow'ses
same thing
lol Poirot is Belgian
Jurassic Park!
She sounds very like that woman playing the French teacher to Lauren Cooper in Catherine Tate. Is she one and the same
No but seriously Glenn..haha
What are they laughing at exactly at 0:18? Something the waiter's doing? I don't really think it's the cappuccino line.
It is, cappuccino is an Italian beverage.

This and both series of I'm Alan Partridge is where the story of Partridge ends for me.
Couldn't disagree more! Mid Morning Matters is brilliant

AP has gone so wrong now - this reminds me of how great it once was!
I agree wholeheartedly. The current incarnation of AP is totally different from the original character.
I'm sure Mr Coogan will listen to your points and take corrective action immediately!

Garry Harriman he ought to if he wants people to watch
Alan needs Tony Le Mesmer!
Paris NO longer the home of Quasimodo the Arsonist; I mean Artisan
Wasn't Poirot from Belgium?
Yes: and fictional, to boot!
And cappuccinos are Italian....Alan has no idea though
thats the joke......
Yes these are the jokes; plus the fact that Sasha Distel is such a weird choice to represent Paris. He's not exactly a musical icon; not outside of France, anyway.
Yes. He should have said Asterix.
“No French!”
Xenophobic is a Greek word actually.
No it isn't, genius. It's an English word made from 2 Greek words.
Eat it!!!
You'll find it in the Oxford English dictionary / and an A-Z of why Britain left the EU
Vintage AP. The writing now is absolutely shite. Coogan lost it.
