Anyone who doesn't find Coogan funny lives in a different universe to me. Perhaps they are the sort of people who get excited about that cliched tedium that was Only Fools and Horses or maybe they like the sublime sophistication of Mrs Brown's Boys. The first episode of the new Partridge was funny in places and I think Coogan is brave to keep the character alive given how brilliant Knowing Me Knowing You and I'm Alan Partridge was. It's hard to keep the material up to such a high standard. Never mind naysayers. There are always re runs of Harry Enfield and Chums or some Roy Chubby Brown videos around.

Originally posted by Rudi Hedman I was looking forward to this on iplayer as well. Not now, but will see how bad it is. Previously he was excellent as Alan Partridge. It’s not the first time I’ve heard he’s a cvnt. He was good in Philomena with Judi Dench. He was surprisingly good in Philomena, I thought. I watched This Time last night and thought it was very funny in places, certainly better than the Martin Clunes comedy Warren which I also recorded and watched. Warren did have a few funny bits but not enough to make me watch it again. It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.

Last nights was cringingly accurate. Watch morning TV and it isn't that different from the satire.

don't like Coogan himself (although it seems that plenty of women do) but I am enjoying the new series. I think the girl that plays the co presenter is very good which also helps. I didn't think much of his Comic Relief sketch last night though and I'm not sure Richer Sounds would've appreciated being name checked. But I may be wrong.

I caught the third episode of the new show last night and enjoyed it more than the first so maybe it just takes some getting into. It's still no 'I'm Alan Patridge' though.

Last night's Partridge was funny. The 100 year old woman and the Irish lookalike were very good.
