MMM 1&2 is incredibly good Partridge, probably the funniest and best written stuff of all Partridge (and that’s saying something as EVERYTHING else is great too). Oasthouse 1-3 is also brilliant - but another stint from Steve to do MMM3 really would be the worth of boast worlds.
25:48 that sound effect is in Day Of The Jackal, a film referenced in I’m Alan Partridge during the game of charades Alan interrupts in the Travel Tavern
Mid Morning Matters is absolute gold. I didn't enjoy This time so much (even though there was some amazing comedy in there) but Im Alan partridge & this was first class.
" Take the floor"... "so ........... ...ive stuck a protruding blade , on one side,...very sharp!.." its all in the brush strokes😂 " did that man hurt the Muppets?!"
30:30 I swear the awkward delivery of "mammary" is a tribute to radio presenter, James Naughtie. (Look up: "James Naughtie Jeremy Hunt Today Programme BBC Radio 4", enjoy)
How in the fundimental laws of the universe can Tim hold his composure when Steve is in full metal Alan? like a mg42 machine gun blasting innocent passers by, bullets of fried gold middle aged merth! ooooo hes a funny man.
Until one day I discovered Gareth's brother in a compromising position... with...a...box of Quality Street. He'd eaten three or four in quick succession and completely ruined his appetite for the chicken dinner I had so lovingly prepared...

14 years later and it's still one of the greatest comedies ever. MMM is Partridge down to the perfect essentials
MMM is pure perfect Partridge .. needs another series!
the best alan partidge. never liked him before this.
Mmmmmm, a nice thick slice of thin lizzy
"the world doesn't revolve around you... you're not the moon." Just brilliant, subtle British humor.
* humour
I wish Steve Coogan would do more of this, this is peak partridge to me, although l do love This Time
Have you tried ‘From the Oasthouse’?
This time was genius
@@michaeltilley8708 Yes, love it! Also been reading Big Beacon, that's pretty good, although I should've gone audiobook to be fair
@@IAmMike2K emphatically yes!
Nowhere near the travel tavern
MMM is possibly my favourite Partridge stuff - listen to / watch it more than anything else. Never gets old and always has me in tears of laughter!
"Jesus not now" 😂
Genius. Absolute Genius.
A concept this simple that deserves to be iconic. Can’t put a number on how many times I’ve listened to MMM clips on here.
Absolute quality!!👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
‘Sounds like she’s being touched on a bus’ 😂😂
A comedy masterpiece and outstanding acting from Coogan and Key.
The ten pence turkey 🦃 😂
I think the first clip in this has gone down as an all-time top Partridge scene. Fantastic.
As said before..peak partridge.
The limitations of this set up concentrate of the writing and acting.
Watched and listened to MMM countless times.
"We're riffing" utter classic.
"Surely only lifestock know what straw tastes like" Greatest saying in history lol.
Every time I see that section I’m convinced Steve was actually drinking wine, the acting is spot on.
Some of the most brilliant writing ever put to page

The Bernard Matthews bit is an all-timer
“I’ve got to send this to Jonathan Ross”
I will always love this show. Sidekick Simon is one of the great AP characters!
Calm down Lynn you’ve broken your neck
Realising this was 14 years ago gave me the same reaction as Alan imagining that Muppets mouth.
