Alan & The Sex People - I'm Alan Partridge - BBC

[@SaltimusMaximus]

that smile Dan gives Alan is brilliant

[@wirebrushofenlightenment1545]

Steve Mangan is a comedy gem.He's just pure perfection as Dan. I know it's SC's writing, but SM plays the slow reveal of character over several episodes just beautifully.

[@GeoffreyPeas]

@@wirebrushofenlightenment1545 he's only in one episode... which is mad

[@krashd]

@@wirebrushofenlightenment1545 I thought Armando Iannuci wrote this?

[@wirebrushofenlightenment1545]

@@krashd Yes, I blieve you're correct.

[@adamgrocco]

He looks like a Wallace and Gromit character with that toothy grin.

[@nickshale6926]

This scene is soo good that nobody questions the fact that Lynn just walks into their home through an apparently wide open front door.

[@ianinkster2261]

Almost certainly AP arranged to leave it open, having called her minutes earlier.

[@euan7166]

Or that the film ended so abruptly.

[@alexevansuk]

She left her keys on the table too!

[@jpaulc441]

Doors are always left open at sex festivals!

[@sentimentalbloke185]

it stands to reason that sex people would leave their front door open

[@stanky61179]

"Your hand is about 30 mil from my gland" 😂😂 Got to be one of the funniest Alan Partridge lines.

[@daweilee1986]

Ya little finger just touched iiiiiiit

[@somedipshtinthecomments2507]

I'd like to thank this scene for forcing the words "don't rub your fanny on meeeeeee" into my head every time I get a hug from now on.

[@clinteldorado]

“MDF’s illegal in America.” “So’s that.” The focused look on her face when she says that is a picture.

[@geek9642]

Is it banned?

[@gordonferrar7782]

Exactly and it's very very sexy.

[@Robert.Deeeee]

Funny enough it's not banned in the US completely. You can buy it but you can't make it in the us. And I think they allow less formaldehyde then the uk version but there's not much in it. I used to work in a furniture factory and the mdf board supplier gave out leaflets about "Myths About MDF"

[@playlist9980]

Great acting. Who is she?

[@pickledegg1989]

​@@playlist9980 Jane Trainer (née Robbins).

[@99Boiko]

Lyn was (and is) just brilliant. Totally underrated yet she never set a foot wrong.

[@joebragg3114]

one should not underestimate these scenes without Lyn. Everyone knows a "Lyn"

[@brucekilby9957]

Lyn is a gem,but her retired police officer boyfriend,is not a great fan of Alan. And yes everyone knows a "Lyn". She's a perfect Foil for Alan's Naivety and Stupidity,such as when he gets his foot impaled and Meeting the Dumbest Bono. Classic Partridge. 😊👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Nine? Nine and a half? Te.. telllll you what, tell you what it's nine and a half thousand pounds. Let's all sing it

[@nigel2093]

I agree. I made a similar comment on another AP video and got slated for it. Felicity Montagu just make the scenes even funnier.

[@mikecreed22]

Ahem, what about imitating Alan at the card game with the staff of the Travel Tavern?! "SACK Lynn, for being...disloyal and having fun without her employer!"

The hair touch at 2.16 and Alans horrified flinch just clinched what Dans smile started.

[@kapturelab]

I'm Alan Partidge is just up there some some of the best comedy in the world. This and The Office are some of my favourite awkward moment cringe comedy.

[@RealmsOfThePossible]

Steve Coogan is one of the greatest british comedians ever, his body of work is incredible yet he really does not get the attention other's do. I think because he has been making quality content for so many years it is just expected to be great.

[@AJNaffiliate]

Absolutely exactly 😂

[@kapturelab]

@@AJNaffiliate :)

[@abrahamdraper1911]

I'm with you all the way on Partridge, but the Office left me completely cold. Not so much as a single flicker of a smile...🤷‍♂️ Strange how comedy works isn't it?

[@kapturelab]

@@abrahamdraper1911 I get you. It's mildly sad for me to hear when someone else doesn't appreciate The Office or they love one thing I really love but not the other. But you're right, that's the nature of it. Strange! :)

[@scorcherish]

''Don't rub you fanny on meee'' haha!

[@RIMJANESSOHMALOOG]

that actually happened to me once

[@TonyEnglandUK]

@Rory O'Donnell I'd love to say _"Don't rub your fanny on me"_ to my gran next time she hugs me at a funeral.

You can rub it on me but don't complain if my finger accidentally slips In .lol

[@steveblease]

@@TonyEnglandUK lol.......🤯

[@thedukeofbork3147]

For some reason it just popped into my head that "Don't rub your fanny on me" scans nicely into Simple Minds "Don't you forget about me". I now can't unhear it and thought it would be better shared.

[@AtheistOrphan]

Now I’ll hear that whenever that song is on the radio you swine!😂
