Alan Partridge - Knowing me, Knowing You (Full BBC Radio 4 Series) [Ep 1 - 7]

ALAN PARTRIDGE:
Alan Partridge & the Alan Partridge Wizard are an Australian rock band formed in 2010 in Melbourne, Victoria. The band consists of Alan Partridge (vocals, guitar, bass, keyboards, flute, sitar), DAN! DAN! DAN! DAN! DAN! DAN! DAN! DAN! DAN!.......... DAN! (vocals, harmonica, keyboards, saxophone), Tony Hayers (guitar, bass, keyboards, vocals), Michael (guitar, bass, keyboards, vocals), Lynn (bass, keyboards), and Sonja (drums, percussion). They are known for exploring multiple genres, staging energetic live shows, and building a prolific discography.
The band members all grew up and went to an inner city comprehensive in the Norfolk, and Geelong areas of Norwich City Centre. Mackenzie, Moore, and Walker met studying music industry at RMIT, with the other members being mutual friends. The band started off as an informal jam band, with the eventual line-up becoming Partridge, Dan, Hayers, Michael, Sonja, Lynn, and Lucas Harwood. The band's name was created "last minute." Mackenzie wanted to name the band "Alan Alan" while another band member wanted Jim Morrison's nickname "Alan King." They eventually compromised with Alan Partridge and the Alan Partridge Wizard. Norwich artist Glenn Ponder
has created all of the band's album art, and a majority of their music videos.

The snippets of news reports between episodes give this a rather haunting quality

[@Doomanoid1979]

Very dark days indeed.

Stood the test of time, I’ve got them all leather bound!!!

[@Doomanoid1979]

Keep it at room temperature or it'll crack.

[@gavinblack450]

Listened to these religiously when they first came out 30 odd years ago, weird how I remembered almost every word, so funny.😂

Still got my blazer-badge and tie set...keep it with all my gold and silver Britannia's in the safe. It's beyond priceless to me.

[@NeverEndingNonsense2024]

The box does have superficial damage....but it's probably the only one in the world that's signed by Roger Moore, David Copperfield, Bill Oddie (not authenticated) and Jet from Gladiators. I tried to get Abba to sign the back of the box, but they refused. Sub-human scum.

Love love love this has been shared!!! BACK OF THE NET!! kinda sad hearing the news reports from the bbc havent changed in all this time

[@redfernpixelgnomepitcher1377]

It's a recording, the news won't change even if you wait 100 years...

[@themickcooper]

This is fascinating to listening to as Steve Coogan hasn’t *quite* worked out the iconic Partridge voice yet

[@samuelgarrod8327]

There are many Partridges, about 7 so far.

[@HOTD108_]

That's quite odd when you realise that Coogan had been playing Alan Partridge for about 15 years already when he did this radio show.

[@samuelgarrod8327]

@@HOTD108_ A couple of years perhaps but not 15.

[@kinggizzard-livebary4153]

@@samuelgarrod8327 yeah Coogan would have started playing him during the school flashbacks if that were the case.

Heartfelt thanks. Timeless comedy genius.

[@A-small-amount-of-peas]

There was a version of this series uploaded on here before but this version seems like the uncut version. The Shirley Dee and Michelle Lombair interviews are a lot longer so kudos for uploading as I thought I knew these word for word

[@wayneliebl1098]

Alan Partridge. What else is there to say? He took being an a******* to a whole new level. I doubt if it will ever be matched or surpassed Maybe Mr. Bean or the Upper class twit of the year can give him a run for his money, but few others.

[@tomraine2945]

So pretty ❤❤❤

Hasn't quite got the AP voice down just yet. Still classic however.

[@user-oj6ev8yi4z]

Was there anymore episodes?

[@JavertRA]

He sounded so much more high pitched back then

[@keith5573]

This is a bit weird, hearing Alan Partridge as John Motson.

[@wiseguy100]

It was more based on David Coleman to be fair.

[@ethzero]

Great payoff in that last segment. Lovely stuff.

[@exceleratefitnesscic6677]

Whys partridge gone towards a aussie accent?

[@glenndouglas8822]

This is his original voice for Alan. He had not quite got it but you can see him evolving into him.

[@PetroicaRodinogaster264]

He doesn’t have an Aussie accent. twit

[@thisisit3333]

In his AP books he (Coogan) discusses ‘losing’ his Norfolk accent. In fact, in the audiobook, he slips into original Alan for a moment, before explaining that he ‘had’ to refine the Norwich, Norfolk Co, East Anglia accent.

[@tz6414]

Marber is actually the funnier, he is a wasted talent, should have been much more successful

[@lesleylow7899]

Hes brilliant, does excellent deadpan
