      Perhaps not! But they don't mind the free promotion they received and the fact that this episode must have drawn many more visitors to the location who had never heard of it before! You know how it goes, they all spend money - in that canteen if nothing more! :)

    I must've watched this 100 times but what gets me is not only how funny the whole thing is, but the little touches that make AP such a well rounded character. Like the joy in Alan's face as he projects his Alpen fantasy on Bono is priceless. Such great acting and writing!

      Partridge must surely have been on the shortlist as the new presenter of the factor! The Krypton factor remashed, think the Crystal Maze meets The Chase meets Charlie and The Chocolate factory, is chocolate a bit racist? Scrap that! Would have been OK for the younger Alan.Methinks older Alan needs something less energetic though, a series of one to one's at various venues, think partnerships and global imaging.

    I visited blickling hall many years ago - before I was introduced to partridge. Missed opportunity to shout Bono as walking around. I bet the staff there are sick of it as I’m sure it happens a lot lol
