@@UA-camKnight Just put Stoke On Trent into Google images...you'll get the joke then...! EDIT: Also known as the Potteries it was the centre of the UKs ceramic industry, but has since suffered post industrial decline. It's about 35 miles from where I live so I've had to visit Stoke on school trips -Gladstone pottery and Waterworld (both of which were really enjoyable actually)
I never really liked the idea of Alan Partridge. So glad I decided to watch him. A genius character and this scene had me in tears. Rewound it about 10 times. Never gets old.
Pure genius Steve Coogan and Armando Iannucci. I laugh until I cry every time I see this as if it’s the first time. Brilliant comedy acting and writing.
I've just noticed that this must be the original broadcast version. On the DVD, Alan's walk-on music "The Heat Is On" is replaced with a soundalike of "Firestarter" presumably due to rights clearance restrictions.
@@DrGeta666 It's not canned laughter. The interior shots are filmed in front of a live studio audience. The outdoor shots are shown to the audience on a screen. It always amazes me how people can't tell the difference between canned laughter and live audience laughter.
Thanks for posting. This might be one of the greatest and funniest comedy scenes ever written. Coogan is a genius. It's strange how I find the character/concept of Alan Partridge no longer translates, despite more than 2 not unsuccessful comebacks. Comedy has changed, and the original series were a time and place in history, so maybe that's it. It now feels like a parody of itself.
Bearing in mind the title of this video... The advert at the start was for a game called “Spikeball.” 🤷🏻♂️ Love it when the cookie based advertising choices make a hash of predicting your buying habits!
@@georgec2894that's odd, as I would have that one down as the relatively weakest episode, even though it has a lot of brilliant moments like the Bono scene
@@ZuluRomeo Oh butter my arse! I meant ‘Never say Alan again’ - That’s the episode with the highest IMDB rating. As for me: I technically need a hat hard on… I’ve done it again 😂
The brief glimpse of the foot on the spike is superb.. so many laugh out loud moments 🤣

Lynn while Alan's still impaled: "lets put you in the recovery position"
"Then all the blood will run out the hole in my foot, you old mess!"
@@krashd always wondered what he said here - thought it was just ‘you mess’ 😆
@@krashd "You old mess" is so funny, it really shows how he feels about her!
This whole tread has made me die from laughter 😂😂😂
You're just quoting bits from Casualty now
Alan's reversion to his native accent on SPAAAYYYYYYKKKE makes him sound momentarily like Frank Spencer
I've always thought it sounded like James Mason
Not really.
@@DDandrumsYes it definitely changes.
Comes from Middleton...(North Manchester) didn't sound very Mancunian to me..... I'm from East Manchester.....So, what do I know?
sppppiiiiiyyyykkkeeee
Love how he just says it in a pure Mancunian accent just because it's funnier
Pull it all off once you old mess
I was showing it a Geordie, and I left it in his hands.
"Don't shine that torch in my face mate, I've just lost a pint of blood..." kills me everytime
The “ah ha” is brilliant 😂 so much pain in the voice.
I love how Coogan goes northern as soon as he injured himself
Reverts back to a manc.. lol
I still remember the first time I ever saw this episode. From the moment I saw Alan's bandaged bloody foot to the end of his presentation I thought I was going to die laughing.
Can you hear it squelching 😂😂
“You couldn’t present a…. Cat!”
I love the way he pauses for laughter after his jokes and is met with stony silence.
Lol 😅😂
Still one of the funniest moments on TV
I think this is the funniest scene from the 2nd series.
The way he says "fun" gets me every time, pure comedy gold the way he's sounding like he's in so much pain 🤣🤣
oooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...your gonna have a good time
Just being a bit camp.
OOOOOH It's a good paper!

“Pull YOUR foot off the spike”

Why has the Daily Express never had "ooooooooooh it's a good paper" as a tagline under the masthead?
They don't want to be associated with that Pinko Liberal Alan Partridge
Because it's not a good paper
What a year it's been for Dante. Fires.
Don't shine that torch in my face mate. I've just lost a pint of blood!
Brilliant line. (Not present on this video though.)
@@drayduke Do you slow down for car crashes?
Pure genius Steve Coogan and Armando Iannucci. I laugh until I cry every time I see this as if it’s the first time. Brilliant comedy acting and writing.
Don’t forget Peter Baynham
Every line is quotable - classic!
True professional.
Gaping foot wound, but the show must go on.
Some of those people had come from Stoke.
I’ve seen this clip a million times, and my face hurts everytime from laughing so hard, good lord he’s a legend
“HAVE YOU ALL GOT YOUR FUN PACKS?”
This is what I imagine Richard Hammond to present an evening like.
Richard Madeley surely??
Only he’s drunk
Have you all got your FUN PACKS!!!!
One of my favourite Alan Partridge moments. The way he says “Spiiiiiiiike” is just legendary 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
My absolute favourite Partridge moment, hands down.
Lynn! You couldn't present a... cat...
“OooOOOOooooooooo you’re gonna have a good time”
I was 13 when this came out and i dont think ive ever laughed so hard in my life
I’ll replicate the cover stance 😂 ah Partridge just never gets old 👍🏼
"Oooooh it's a good paper!"
"Then the blood will all run out of the hole in my foot, you old mess!" 🤣
I actually booked this room under the name "the real IRA".
They didn't bat an eyelid!
I’ll just go and tell them it’s me

Amazingly funny - this and black adder - my favs...

OMG ILOVE ALAN PARTRIDGE! Funniest show of all time. Never tire of him
You couldn't present a cat. Steve Coogan is a comedy genius.
All three writers: Coogan, Peter Baynham and Armando Inucci., Amazing writing, every single sentence is magic.
...all kidding aside, possibly the funniest four minutes and twenty seconds on youtube. "A glittering year ahead..."
Ehhh.... I would go too fair... It wasn't that funny.
@@sillygoose635 you want to try that again?
O.D. Jones total comedy gold, and I brought my extra large plate.
Easily the peak of Series 2. Perfect Partridge 😁
The best of this is still the audience reaction. "I1ve pierced my foot on a spyyyyyyykeeeeee" (and the audience: hahahhaha, ooooooooooooh).
Its canned laughter. It isn't real

This has to be one of the funniest moments in any of the series. I can't stop laughing.
Quality never repeated to this day !!
"Go and eat some coffee... drink it. It's soup you can eat... but that's a liquid."
So well done, more stomach churning than casualty!
The way he says "spike" is almost like he's from Newcastle.
Sounds more like Yorkshire
Alan suddenly sounds Northern lol
I always say that when someone switches on a torch. Or oooh its a good paper, every time I’m in the newsagents.
Thats cos the actor that plays him is Mancunian
@The Head Reacher no?
Its a comedy show
Always thought Partridge was a better character than David Brent. This is why :)
is that when he was David cassidy ?
Who would think David Brent was better?
who is David Brent? :)
Brent is nothing compared to this guy
jim jimjim love Alan - he’s far more complex and real
Ppl sleep on everything that comes before the spike because everything after is so perfect, but the intercom bit is brilliant too 😂
Funniest Alan partridge scene. Kills me everytime.

The first award tonight is for best Christ.
Remember watching this with my brother when it first aired, don’t think we’ve ever laughed so hard at anything before or since
It’s a great series, one of the best.
The fact he jumps after pressing the button is hilarious for some reason
People in the audience jumping out their skin when the 'pyrotechnics' go off.
One of the great comic sequences.
"Y'all got y'er FUN PACKS!!"

Made me want to go rewatch this ep just for the other stuff Alan says into the intercom at the gate.

My favorite episode
Andy Duffield mine too tho it’s all pure class 👏🏼
Same! 😂
This is arguably his best episode 🤣🤣🤣
This is a good one, but my favourite is the one where he is bored out of his brain in the Travel Tavern.
This episode was Coogan's finest hour
Oh, absolutely! Michael's helicopter fantasy was another brilliant scene.
It is criminally underrated. Many seem to put ‘I know what Alan did last summer’ at the top… but those people obviously like American things now …
@@georgec2894that's odd, as I would have that one down as the relatively weakest episode, even though it has a lot of brilliant moments like the Bono scene

Missed my favourite part with the bloke shining his torch in Alan's eyes
I almost forgot to breathe. This is comedy genius with an extra large plate. You can’t beat alpha papa! 😅😂😃etc
Moved from UK to France a couple of years ago. French husband WILL get this in good time. I insist.

My money's on Jesus.
Jim Caviezel perhaps..?
