A bit like the Cook report but with a more slapstick approach (Im Alan Partridge !)

Advantages: will have you in stitches

Disadvantages: When's the new series coming?

I'm Alan Partridge is without doubt the funniest and best comedy series ever. It tells the story of a man who has just lost his TV chat show and is now forced to do a graveyard shift on Norwich local radio.

He is divorced from his wife and lives in a Travel Tavern (equidistant between Norwich and London). The series contains 6 episodes and with all of them being comic genius. The funniest episode is when Alan gets so bored in the Travel Tavern he walks up a dual carriage way to a service station just to buy windscreen washer fluid.

Partridge seems to have created so many memorable catchphrases like "Jurassic Park!" and "Smell my cheese" to name just a few. If any of you reading this haven't seen Alan Partridge you must do. It will make you look differently at the world of minor celebities.

Partridge always reminds me of Richard Bacon, and I'm sure he is his secret lovechild.

Another highlight of the series is when the head of BBC dies and Alan then believes he has another chance to resurrect his chat show when an old friend of his becomes the new head of the BBC. Unfortunately Alan turns up to the funeral wearing a Castrol black bomber jacket.

Sorry for the rather short opinion but after my long rant on the Game Boy Advance I just wasn't in the mood.

You can catch Alan Partridge on UKPlay where there are regular repeats of his chat show Knowing Me Knowing You.
