I know there are thousands to choose from, but I think the whole 'the Queen is not dead' gag might be my favourite ever from an episode of I'm Alan Partridge. It just sums up the series and the character so perfectly; his ridiculous on-air persona and his stubbornly pedantic literalism. Pure genius.
Steve coogan is an amazing character actor :( Yet i feel hes let down by the writing in most other shows apart from the alan partridge character/shows. :(
@WENGERGOONER why do people write their personal opinions on here? just let them make their own minds up rather than telling them, when rarely they care....."You cheeky git".
I remember reading or hearing an interview with the woman that plays Sophie and she was asked if the corpsing was forced - she said there was no acting needed! Coogan is an absolute legend - this could hardly have been a better day at work, working on IAP XOD
Can someone explain the Michael Character to me? In episode 1 he was working at B.P. but at every episode after that he works at the hotel. What happened?
You've mixed up series 1 & series 2. In series 1, he works at the hotel. In series 2, he works at the gas station. You must have watched series 2 Ep1, then switched to the series 1 episodes.
He works at the hotel in series 1. In series 2 when Alan doesn't stay in the Hotel anymore, it is explained that Michael loses his job and joins the petrol station. :D
