Alan Partridge

Partridge is one of my favourite comedy characters of all time, so here's a load of stuff to give you an example of what he's about...

To start here are his sports reports from the early 90s satirical radio comedy "On The Hour"

Listen to the stream

Here's a clip from The Day Today, the tv version of On The Hour, from 1994. In it, Alan presents his "World Cup Report"

This is a clip from Red Nose Day 2005 when Partridge meets "The Milky Bar Kid" (Simon Pegg).

This clip is from series 1 of "I'm Alan Partridge" and features the classic line "I'm trapped under a cow!"

ok, here's a good one - while it's not Alan Partridge, it is one of Coogan's other great characters, Paul Calf, in his "Video Diary". This is the full programme.
