I'm Alan Partridge - YOUR A MENTALIST!

[zionravescene]

Censored on Dave, the home of [BLEEP]y banter.

[Graggus]

funniest scene this from all 3 series... is there just 3 series???? 

[MrsGreenDay123]

hahahahahahaha :') This never fails to make me laugh

[sharpz4]

@DLPBurke hahahaha are u fuckin dumb this is obviously completely out of ur league, red dwarf fucks me off its basically for children

[meldme]

The guy who played Jed in this episode was hilarious.

[peterpeterxxo]

way back when iwas little everytime i went to the newsagents... ud go past a 3ft high panda bear charity statue and the other charity box on the counter for years and years was for the spastics society..didnt know it was bleeped out now..hope panda bears dont get pixilated out on wildlife progs.

[Astroman9991]

It's "you're", not "your" you big spastic, you're a mentalist!!! (Drives off)

Heh heh, not really. But it's "you're".

[Videomakerpro]

Full camera crew visible at 0:10!

[AshLuvsJonnyStew]

....oh there's a dead enddd

[DLPBurke]

Over rated comedy with some good parts.

[HumanMonolith]

@DLPBurke

You're a mentalist

[1878EFC2008]

@DLPBurke

It's popular among intelligent people. Less intelligent people struggle to understand it and are better off watching Two Pints of LAger etc

[DLPBurke]

@1878EFC2008 Not really, I am into a lot of good comedies like Red Dwarf, but this is basic. You seen 1 episode you seen em all.

[1878EFC2008]

@DLPBurke

Red Dwarf is for the comically illiterate.

[DLPBurke]

@1878EFC2008 That shows right there just how braindead you are. Goodbye :P

[1878EFC2008]

@DLPBurke

Ok SMEGHEAD lolololollmafao

:|

[martinmerrywinkle]

@1878EFC2008 lol harsh but true

[orobinsono]

10 people are pedos

[FullMetalEffect]

10 people are big spastics

[martinmerrywinkle]

this was done in the 90's when political correctness hadn't quite become so widespread. These days when you watch this episode on TV, they edit out the 'Spastic' bit. Which sucks.

[H4rryF]

YOU'RE

[123backinyerface]

If you watch all two seasons of Alan Partridge "Up with the Partridge", I guarantee you will be speaking "Alanisms" all goddamn week, most people will just think you are weird, but occasionally someone gets it and they laugh their ass off.

"Durassic Park!"

[muthalovah]

*you're

[schitzophrenicJesus]

10 people are big spastics

[Indiegirl007]

Wait. It's an insult to say spastic across the pond?

But....that's like, a REAL word, and it doesn't mean having an illness. Funny Europeans, you.

LOL. I can't help but crack up when he shouts, 'you're a mentalist!' and speeds off. LMAO.

[Indiegirl007]

@Schpudd Which I guess holds the same amount of insult as calling someone an idiot.

[Indiegirl007]

@Schpudd I briefly dated a guy who had cerebral palsy. Had THE best attitude towards life, I have never met a person who was so....alive. This 'word' just all comes down to personal beliefs, and how thick your skin is.

Like the N word. All have to do with your personal connotations with the word. Personally, I don't see what the big deal is about, because to me it's just another word for Erratic Excitement. I think I understand why you dislike us, but don't group us all in to this big box.

[graemeoliver84]

@Indiegirl007 It used to be OK once (there was a charity called The Spastics Society) but now it's considered politcally incorrect, like calling a disabled person a cripple. I don't hear people using it so much now but I remember it being a common playground insult (like the way "retard" is used in America but a bit crueller). You have to admit it has an unpleasant ring to it. And British people are not Europeans.

[SimonB198207]

@graemeoliver84 Alan would definetley disapprove at being refered to as a Europen (me to).

: )

No way, jose! no way!

[graemeoliver84]

@SimonB198207 Politically, he'd definitely be a Eurosceptic.

[dweb223]

@kgr00 I'm pretty sure that word had been cut, certainly was the last time I saw this on Dave

[kgr00]

Knowing someone with Cerebal Palsy I take huge offense to Alan saying the word spastic. I will forward my views to the BBC and hopefully any future viewing of this show will have that word cut from this scene. It is deeply distressing to viewers with this condition and hopefully this cut will help equality for disabled viewers in the future.

[webed6]

@kgr00 I'm not being funny, but is there really any need? If everybody took offence at the slightest thing and followed suit, we'd be reduced to the most simplistic comedy, comedy which has certainly been covered before... It really is such a shame that people are beginning to complain and ruin British comedy. Fair enough with Frankie Boyle, he's definitely out of order and his jokes are totally crude. But Steve Coogan? There's definitely a difference between the two...

[chaosproduction]

@kgr00 People like you need to stop taking life so seriously and enjoy it for once in your life. If you are not happy with one little word then don't watch the show.

[Riffleruk]

@kgr00 You're fundamentally misunderstanding the conventions of comedy, fiction and pretty much everything. Partridge is not meant to be a sympathetic character. People are not meant to like him, they're not meant to copy him. His use of language is certainly not to be emulated. Presumably you also object to the portrayal of Adolf Hitler in the film Downfall, and would prefer TV to show 24/7 shots of nice flowers and happy bunny rabbits. Unpleasant people use bad language. Get over it.

[LazyScott99]

@Riffleruk that was uncanny.... when I was reading what you put I got to where you said "they're not meant to copy him..." I actually thought of Adolf Hitler and how he could be used as an example of that. 2 seconds later he was lol great minds.....not fools lol

[graemeoliver84]

@kgr00 It was already bleeped out years ago on UKGold (now called Dave).

[ec123456789able]

i spotted that too, the film crew in the reflection

[nickking360]

Just happened on Dave!

[MrBoBoTom]

Murmers in feild *he's a mentalist*

[12345l6789]

*YOU'RE

[BarryDong]

@12345l6789 10 months and it's still not been corrected.

[MrEeqqee]

lol havent seen this in years

[ajball2000]

This is probably why we never see Young Ones repeats. If the powers at be throw their dummies out of their pram at the word 'spastic', they'll go into meltdown over Vyv + (P)Rick

[graemeoliver84]

I know they bleep "spatistic" out when they repeat this on Dave now but what about the bit in another episode where Alan goes "Now they call it Consignia and Scope. Its the Post Office and the Spastics Society!"?

[RonSkem]

Classic clip! Thanks for posting.

I've converted some Alan Partridge clips into a cartoon for a laugh., see what you think. (Click my name to view the video)

I'm happy to convert other 'Partridge' clips into 'cartoons' on request.

[studas2011]

We'll ave that pint

[leevclarke]

They always edit this scene when this episode is shown on TV, to remove the word "spastic". I guess political-correctness-gone-mad is alive and well. :(

[elnegro88]

what... the US have their own Alan Partridge, like they copied of us with their shocking version of The Office..... jesus wept!!

[sdeschanel1]

@elnegro88 don't tell me that. What they have an American version of Alan Partridge? No way, it cannot be done, The Office proved that, what a tragedy.

[harrychown1989]

@elnegro88 I like the American version of the office just as much as the British one. No need to be so anti-American just because they are actually American.

[elnegro88]

@harrychown1989

I'm not anti american, I watch a lot of american shows but when they make their own version of something british, it'll never compare to the original. And yes, I do admit that steve carell was very good in their version of the office

[ec123456789able]

9 people have been to jed's house.

[JisbonRock]

make it eight people are mentalist. i wanna be a mentalist! Look at Patrick Jane and you'll see why!

[sammitchelll]

7 people are mentalists

[squidwood10]

Go Jackie Merrick !! x

[bishopberkley]

I saw this repeated on TV recently and they had edited so that Alan just said 'No way - you're a mentalist!'

what a bunch of big spastics.

[sec0ndevolution]

@bishopberkley Yeah, doesn't surprise. PC-obsessed world that we live in.

[eBritishIdentity]

@sec0ndevolution PC Obsessed Britain :)

[RichyJ91]

@bishopberkley Ha, yeah I noticed that when it was on Dave the other week.

[AthenasAngel]

@bishopberkley lol what does spastic even mean? lol

[chubbylilloser85]

@bishopberkley -_- Hate when they do that. Was it dave?? They used to cut/edit SO much out of shows. I remember it was 2am once and they cut out the word "twat" in red dwarf. Outragious..

[DANNYM35]

@bishopberkley Those zombie shits!

[andyhowpog]

Best scene from the first series. And stumbling across that ploughed field, hilarious!

[Oblivionator]

Possibly the best line in comedy history.

[cthulhu11111111]

i prefer the US version of alan partridge

[krisseeboy08]

@cthulhu11111111 please be joking

[caturn88]

@cthulhu11111111 what are you talking about?

[djparnate]

@cthulhu11111111 ???! HUH

[Rachiejane1]

@cthulhu11111111 Oh for fuck sake. Can't they think of ANY of their own shows...???

[cthulhu11111111]

@Rachiejane1

I thought the US alan partridge was the first one

[Janus108]

@cthulhu11111111 NO IT WASN'T! Steve Coogan's Alan Partridge in Britain was the original.

[boulehead]

@cthulhu11111111 what is the US Alan Partridge?

[simoneblackstock]

I love how he goes from quiet to shouting

"no way YOU BIG SPASTIC YOU'RE A MENTALIST"

[WKaliberr]

best part of any show in history of the world

[notlobian4ever]

Oh no it's a dead end! Where's the road?

[gazmetal]

I always have to rewind this bit and watch it about 100 times

[centralscrutinizer9]

[centralscrutinizer9]

[shams0001]

[YooBurp]

Ders more to ireland dan dis!

[UnscrupulousSquirrel]

I would quite gladly buy Alan a pint of bitter and share a packet of pork scratchings.

[GoldSeeker1012]

This is without doubt the moment i became a Alan Partridge fan i remember watching it for the 1st time and pissing myself with laughter loved it ever since!

[lukebright8]

yeah thats a good spot, at around 0:10 if you look you can see the camera team in the reflection of the car window :D

what a fantastic show it is!

[MCshlthead]

i love the fact that the first real fan alan comes across turns out to be clinically insane XD

[icedbannanas]

you're...not your........

[MCshlthead]

who cares??

[edaines]

'S A DEDENND!

[YooBurp]

lol

[digitalshark]

This was such a great episode. The whole sequence where he has to pretend the increasingly bizarre obsessed fan's house is his own is just hilarious.

[Josh360]

i'll rip ya blood head off!

[Artemis458]

classic partridge

[karlmarx71]

Quality Partridge.....its a long shot but I hope Steve brings him back at some time.

"Back of the net!"

[AllRiseForDrEvil]

Cashback!

[damseyb]

@karlmarx71 Its going to be decided next month whether a movie is made :)

[AllRiseForDrEvil]

Camera team at 0:10!

Alan Partridge kicks ass.

[Artemis458]

lol good spot

[blahdiblah2010]

@AllRiseForDrEvil LOL good one! didn't even see it til you said it and even then i had to play it twice lol that's some eyes you've got lol

[cunney08]

lmfao one of the funniest vids ive seen in ages XD

[graemeoliver84]

Whenever this episode is shown on Dave or G.O.L.D. (formerly UK Gold), "spastic" is always bleeped out! Is it really such an offensive word? I don't think they bleep out the bit where he tells Dave Clifton to eff off.

[FeedsNoSliesMusic]

Well I wouldn't call my nan a spastic. :o

[xPlantpoTx]

the bit i find funniest is steves facial expressions when his inviting him for the drink, definatley in my top 5 funniest comedy moments ever...

[iames85]

Alan's like a little kid he is really scared to start off with and when he is safe in his car and there is nothing the other guy can do he calls him a big spastic and drives off fast! Comedy at its best

[addernoir01]

It's ok Lynne it now says Cook Pass Babtridge.

[JiMxtreme]

No way you big spastic, you're a mentalist!

[webly17]

I bought the dvd just for this scene.

[jcjp86]

its a dead end lol! classic

[TruthAvenger100]

ROFLMAO!! He drove so fast then shit his pants when he found it was a dead end hahahahaha!

[Mohabias]

what's the context of this?

[yilesse]

Alan thinks he has made a new friend, he askes him to lend him his house as he is living in the travel lodge and wants to impress some tv people so they will give him a new show. This is as Alan is leaving/trying to escape.

You really need to watch the episode to find out why trusting this guy was a huge mistake and in what way he's a mentalist.

[0penuriis]

Yeah, the guys he's meeting in this episode are the writers of Father Ted, Black Books n IT Crowd

[tormentedteapot]

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahaha

[robbieroffe]

Lovely stuff!

[oldskoolheretic]

Not my words, Shakin' Stevens'.

[Clembo]

"No way you big spastic YOU'RE A MENTALIST!"

[hmzombie]

WOW I just noticed you can see the boom mic in the car window, but i dont care still a funny as fuck clip

[stephofdoom]

hahaha "oh no its a dead end" ! !

[edaines]

to be fair, it's actually funnier with "your" in the title

[spartanses]

"YOU'RE" for fucks sake

[unrealeck]

You saved me having to say that

[Letspreach]

@spartanses For "fuck's" sake...not "fucks". If you're going to give grief over punctuation, try to abide by the laws yourself. For the sake of fuck.

[spartanses]

@Letspreach No one gives a fuck if its "fucks" or "fuck's". You're and Your are most commonly mistaken, like "they're" "there" and "their" too. If thats your only weapon against me, Mr Perfect, then you can fuck right off.

[graemebdj]

@Letspreach What is the need for an apostrophe? It's not 2 words put together!

[Letspreach]

@graemebdj The apostrophe - in this case - is possessive, not a contraction, and thus used accordingly.

[graemebdj]

@Letspreach I stand corrected, said the man in the orthopaedic shoes.

[Murrangurk2]

@Letspreach Oh for all things of and/or pertaining to fuck, it goes both ways.

[guyfromnewcastle]

@spartanses hahahaha

[yehhhboyyy]

will nicholas moody please make his way upstairs. and go to sleep now please, thatis correct 3 minus 2, do 1 nick do 1

[thetodge]

I love how he changes it from his borther in law to his borther, classic, he was clearly gonna plough alan.

NO WAY YA BIG SPASTIC.

Love this show.

[redplague]

There is a lot of things like that in this series. On quite a few occasions you can see extras standing at the side of the camera waiting to walk on to their part.

[stevenc123]

Pause it around 0:10 and you can see the camera and boom mike in the reflection.

[Spooks99]

Hmmhh a dddd dead end!! Lmao, quality.

[petrucci15]

HAHAHAHA my god this is a great show

[Jordy123abc]

no way you big spastic....

lmao classic

[dangerness44]

Mentalist....I love that word.

[gaskulDJ]

love it!!

[regalgrubgrub]

at the 10 second mark, you can see the cameraman and the boom operater in the car window's reflection.

[Fleetunit3]

go see my brother

[combcard]

i laughed like a sonuvabitch here

[AnimalCrossing334]

Its a dead end!

[Winklez0rz]

HELP ME SOMEONE!

[charliediprose]

Camera crew at 11 seconds in the window - But aside from me being a spoil sport; Love this part.

[NewWaveManimal]

isnt it filmed in documentary style anyway

[AzizV]

Hmm it's actually spelt 'you're'.

[05027802]

What are you an English teacher? This is YouTube not a GCSE grammar class

[ukulazy]

you only learned the difference between 'you're' and 'your' in Year 10?

: /

[05027802]

No I left school at the age of twelve because I hated it. I am self educated and cannot tolerate arrogant people who correct other peoples spelling and grammar. It is nothing more than elitist bullshit.

What you think and the way you think it is the test of intelligence not how you spell it.
