The second series of I'm Alan Partridge is an excellent series of comedy. In general, I've found that the second series of comedies generally dissapoint but this one is an exception. A whole new list of Partridge-isms such as "back of the net" and "cashback" were born in this series. In his own words, Partridge has "bounced back" and now has a better timeslot on Radio Norwich and is building his new house, whilst living in a caravan outside. His Geordie friend Michael now has a job at the local BP Garage and Lynn, his PA, continues with her suffering at Partridge's hands. One particular episode has Partridge ...  Read the complete review

It must have been quite hard for Peter Baynham, Armadno Iannucci and Steve Coogan to sit down to write the brilliant second series of I'm Alan Partridge after they had so successfully lampooned the idea of a fame hungry minor celebrity clinging onto the vague hope that they may receive a renewal of their TV show in the first series. Whilst the second series never tops the dizzying heights that were set by its predecessor, it comes incredibly close and is still one of the greatest comedy shows ever produced by the BBC. There is no point in spoiling what Alan gets up to in these 6 episodes, suffice to say that he is still the vile monster that he has always been ...  Read the complete review

Series 2 of I'm Alan Partridge charts the ongoing life and times of one time chat show host Alan Partridge (Steve Coogan). After accidentally shooting someone on the set of his chat show in the original 'knowing me, knowing you' series, Alan has embarked on a career in radio and series 2 sees him hosting the late night slot on his local station. The comedy comes thick and fast in each and every episode of this comedy classic, and I'd go as far as to say that this is the best of the 3. They really don't make comedies like this any more, and I doubt even Steve Coogan and Co. could get back to the form that they demonstrated with this series. No ...  Read the complete review

Alan Partridge Series 2 is one of the funniest comedies I've seen. Even though it was made in 2003 it still has the ability to really make me laugh. Highly quotable and cleverly written, this is a comedy that I never tire of. Alan Partridge is a failed chat show host that gets to host a late night radio show and supplements his income narrating on direct to DVD programs like 'The Boob Olympics', 'The Eurovision Thong Contest' and 'Wet Christmas' for a shady production company. His best friend Michael works in a petrol station and his PA, Lynn "That's a snazzy haircut. Is that your mother's money coming through?", is constantly by his side and both ...  Read the complete review

Alan Partridge (played by Steve Coogan) makes his return to our screens having now left the Travel Tavern and residing in a static home whilst his house is build right next door. Thankfully he has not left behind all things from the Travel Tavern as Michael (the Geordie who worked in the hotel) has followed him into series 2 and can be found at the BP garage where Alan loves to go in for chats and to have a Ginsters. The series sees Lynn (Alan's faithful PA) return to our screens too and following on from the death of her mother we begin to see a different side to Lynn as a little bit more of her character comes out with her getting with a former fuzz during the ...  Read the complete review
