Partridge

On the contrary I thought last night’s was dreadful.
Partridge was clearly doing a Tony Hancock and reading everything off idiot boards but he was doing it when he was supposed to be off script too.

There's a savage review in the Spectator (and I kind of agree with most of it) but then again they might be just having a go at Labour supporting Coogan. Dunno.

This is a parody of Partidge and I miss 'I'm Alan Partridge'. Even the film version (which is yet another incarnation of the character) was enjoyable.

I actually find the Tim Key elements the best bits...he's a geuninyl funny guy.

When I first read the title I thought it was about this, LOL:

I have to say, I think he`s the worse "comedian" there has ever been imo.

I have never laughed or even though he was even mildly amusing.

All my mates are into Partridge and often quote him. I get on with them all with most others things we share, but I just don’t get it with them all liking Partridge. I find the character, his shows/stand ups utterly unfunny. Don’t even find it ironically funny.

The English, especially BBC radio, have long specialised in unfunny comedy.
Professor Jimmy Edwards, Harry Worth, Terry and June, Sid James, Lenny Henry, Jimmy Clitheroe, and the greatest of them all Peter Brough, a ventrilloquism act on radio ffs.
Feel free to add your own comedy bete noire.

I forget who made this remark, but when asked about Britain's worst winter, he replied "Bernie".

“The worst two Winters of the 20th century . . . Mike and Bernie.”

Eric Morecambe was once asked what he and Ernie Wise would have been if they hadn’t been comedians.
He replied, “Mike and Bernie Winters,”

You might just have a really poor sense of humour
