Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 гру 2016
- Peripheral guest Mary quickly becomes Alan's nemesis when she confronts him about taste and decency on television.
Taken From the Christmas Special of classic comedy Knowing Me Knowing You (1994) which saw Steve Coogan’s bumbling sports anchor character from The Day Today (1994) get a shot at his own “chat show.” This is Knowing Me Knowing Yule from 1995.

Rebecca front is stunning 😍
Even as a peripheral guest
This whole episode was brilliant.
It’s funny actually. I missed this for years and years and only got to see it when it was the 2-disc DVD. It’s superb. I wasn’t bothered originally because there are so many bland, phoned-in Christmas specials that I was worried this would follow suit. It’s genuinely one of the best though. Ooo pardon!
She is a brilliant actor and comedian.
Rebecca Front in The Thick Of It was amazing
have you seen 'Nighty Night' on BBC.
she stars on it. classic british comedy.
and sexy as hell
Coogan is the genius, the rest are good actors.
Steve Coogan has created the greatest comic character ever. He is a national treasure.
Smell my cheese!!!!
Agree 🙂❤️
See this is what I don't understand
The character that said 'Smell my Cheese' 'Eat my Goal' and 'On that Bombshell' bears absolutely no resemblance whatsoever to the character being played in 'This Time'
This time is not funny and is probably the worst I've seen. Nobody is going to be quoting phrases in 20 years time from this series.
@@nudisco300 I mean this time alan partridge is just an evolved and aged alan and i still found it really funny
Armando Ianucci was a big reason for this character being so good
@@kneeenaw4 And Patrick Marber The old writing team really understood the nuances of Partridges character.
Rebecca Front, David Schneider & Patrick Marber were the perfect supporting cast for Steve. All brilliant at the many characters they played in the original series and this, wish they could have done a hell of a lot more together.
Not so much the Cornish curmudgeon marber who was more into looking out for his own interests and cutting talented writer performers out of the clique.
- _I don't like it._
- _Well don't do it!_
Ahh Rebecca Front, always fancied her
I kove to watch this Christmas special every year.
Can we get a drink for the Christian?
'Mary - like the Virgin Mary. Are you a . . . Oh sorry, none of my business.' 'Yes, I am actually.' 'Oh! Well done.'
Lol, classic Alan. If only their was a real show like this
There is, it is called The Late Late Show in Ireland and is hosted by Ireland's Alan Partridge, Ryan Tubridy who has been host since 2009. He before Ryan, Ireland had another Alan Partridge called Pat Kenny.
it was good when gay byrne was hosting it, a joke since.
this is your life was great though.
It would be horrific rather than funny.
Wish they'd repeat this at Christmas this year.
Or every year.
on point with the shirt tie and cardigan combination
The only way you can get access to Hardcore pornography is if you mail off for a satellite smart card decoder. Then you’re in business.😂
strangewayshere Oh the innocent pre-internet days
Let's talk about Christmas!
@@Pining_for_the_fjords Well....not very much pre. This was 1994....people were already starting to have internet by then. I had it by 1996.
@@simonmoore2380 True, but I don't think there was much porn on the internet back then.
There was porn on the internet, it just took forever to download.
I wish we had more documentaries like this.
I've watched all the Alan partridge shows and this particular sketch is one of the very best. Great job!
nailed and on point
Peripheral guest😂😂
"How did this happen?"
Genius!!!
Coogan superb.
We had great times in the vauxhall Labrador!
Richard Madeley could sue for defamation of character.
classic partridge!!
0:49 That laugh! Was that Ricky Gervais?
Well done..
"I don't like it"
"Well don't do it"
.... dead XD
Corr..Rebecca Front
Kanjo Racer Rebecca Front Bottom
Kanjo Racer Yep....dayumn fine 😜😜😜
Kanjo Racer Yep. Synth Vera from Humans. Chief Super Innocent from Lewis to name a few roles...
And Big Train.
When she played Barbara Wintergreen on The Day Today - well, I was happy . . .
@@tonybates7870 Currently on Avenue 5.
Moral standards at the BBC .. there's an oxymoron . Gotta love Alan.
I want Alan's life! Anyone else?
henry black why?
You're a fan of Toberlarone I take it?
Rebecca was gorgeous.
She was, especially with a sexy Aussie accent when she plays a guest on the unaired pilot show, that you can see on dvd collection.She was also stunning as another guest, the Las Vegas singer, and she had a great voice.
Is
Why are you talking about her in a past tense? She's not dead.
Still is
@@johnbeagley8162 still is what? Not Dead?
This is classic comedy!
"Can we get a drink for the Christian?"
"Are you a v... well, it's none of my business."
David Whitfield
yes i am actually.....
an unconstructed incel. Inside and out for all intents and purposes
@@rainblaze. Well done
Nicola Murray was a bit of a sort!
_"Are you a- are you a- ...well it's none of my business"_ 😂😂😂😂
Followed by a "well done" whenever she said she was and the "how did this happen?"
Oh the days before the internet....
Needless to say I had the last laugh
Needles to say I took drugs
Let's talk about Christmas!
Alan loves his D2Mac converter!
The thumbnail looks like one of the guys off Kids in the Hall
Classic 😂
Is this the same Mary who's always ringing in to his radio show?
Good question!
Are you hairy Mary?
Nah that's "Jills" voice, red haired woman at Pear Tree productions thst calls in.
@@gillymac9363 It's Amelia Bullmore who plays Sonia. Check out "Anglian Lives" on IMDb :)
This was before she met malcom tucker
That was bugging me thanks👍
_Listen love_
then your in business lol
Mince Pie!
its the neil jones show.
lol!
This was him at his peak; the recent stuff just doesn't have the same edge.
I think the lack of writing input from Patrick Marber (who also appeared as a regular guest of his shows) is part of the reason why the new stuff is so poor in comparison to the older material.
@@nytrex2001 You could be right. That and the lack of risk in comedy these days. It all seems so safe and sanitized.
I agree… This episode was gold, with stuffing, ooh pardon 🤭 “porn it ain’t”
Think Coogan is a comic genius but he'd never touch any gender fluid stuff.....(- make up yer own jokes there btw).
Disagree. For me, Mid Morning Matters was the best Partridge work.
Alan sporting his 'wrath of khan' cardie
Nice.
How did this happen 😂
IN 1995 she had a point - but like Orwell, 20-30 years out.
Do the BBC broadcast porn now, then? I know they've had problems with animals like Jimmy Savile but the programmes are not pornographic.
Sometimes awful but never pornographic.
Watching this reminds me of the time I went to Silverstone and shook Jackie Stewart's hand.... my marriage fell apart soon after that!
Your significant other disliked him so much, they saw it as betrayal for you to touch him?
@@GreenMetalicDevil Very funny... you know I was referencing a line from the series right?
But, the reason the joke works in the series does also answer your question were you being serious. Because the collapse of Alan's marriage cannot have ANYTHING to do with shaking Jackie Stewart hand, no more than my fiancee breaking off our engagement had anything to do with me suggesting we went for a coffee at World of Leather one hour before!
(In all fairness... that probably was the reason) 🤔🇬🇧
@@nigelcarren Nah, I didn't know. Haven't watched it all. Just trying to make a joke.
I otherwise agree, blaming things that has nothing to do with it is not a mature response. Like saying that because I heard the song "American Idiot", I failed a test
@@GreenMetalicDevil Thats ok, nice to to be cool about it... we made internet history today!! 👍🏻😂
Call me Sherlock... but something tells me... you are a Green Day fan?
@@nigelcarrenTreat others kindly, before they give you a reason not to. Besides, no big problem here, just me making a half joke question to your comment😁
Nah, Sherlock (as per your request). I have no particularly strong feelings about them. Although they do have some nice songs!😎
She is one of the quiet bat-people I keep hearing about.
Where can I get the full episode?
Well don't do it!
Are you hairy.....Mary
When the BBC was funny ..
Someone in the audience has a very annoying laugh.
Hiya cath ！
😂
a word on onanism...
Was there a clever sexist joke at the end of the clip about calling the virgin girl hysterical?
Mail off for a smart card satellite decoder, then you're in buisness
I dont recall this one....it's from Knowing Me Knowing You???
Knowing me knowing yule. It's the christmas special. If your in the uk its being shown on UK Gold over next few days
*Jes*
"Listen love... "
That canned laughter's terrible tho, why do it?
KOLLUSION Transistor Funk cause it was 1995
It's actually a live audience.
Think it was actually filmed in front of a live audience.
Yeah it's a live audience
She is like Lily Allen before she started singing about the wet patch in her bed.
Jimmy Saville??????
like the virgin mary....are you...are you...uhh its none of my buisness HAHAHA
This was when Alan was written properly and the writing was more important than the character. Now Partridge is written weakly but overacted with over affected mannerisms and voices. It's sad but if you watch this and you watch This Time it's like a totally different character.
I completely agree.
I just hope that Armando Ianucci & Peter Baynham come back and restore some of the old magic instead of the Gibbons brothers ruining the great Partridge legacy.
This Time is painfully unfunny and doesn't work.
Hm, modern day Partridge has evolved (not revolved). The original writers were so good and set the bar so high, it can't be matched. This Time is still good, but in comparison, it is sub standard.
@@hufclufc That's a very fair point
Yup. They obviously leave too much of it up to Coogan, and seem like they're encouraging him to overact and over emphasize the same few aspects of the character for easier and lazier laughs.
wow..... moral standards at the BBC.......
pure dirt
"what I object to is the very annoying woman laughing in the audience"
Partso be but a boifrends pooofta.
Onan was the first jew to use coitus interuptus and was cursed by god for not allowing nature to take its course. The catholic church conflated it with masturbation so as to make both a sin
The BBC resting on its laurels. Too woke for a show like that now.
Stuck record.
@Natty Bumppo More likely you saw it through newly ideological eyes.
The BBC is too Conservative
I used to love Steve Coogan's character, thought it was hilarious. Then Steve told me and most of the nation who voted (democratically) to come out of the European Union that we were all wrong and that we should have stayed in the EU...or words to that effect. So, now I realise that Mr Coogan is really just a champagne socialist who doesn't care for democracy at all. The knock on effect of this is that Alan Partridge is now slightly more sour IMHO
Kind of cringe
"How did this happen?"
