Steve Coogan | The Tommy Tiernan Show

[@ClusterBombed01]

I played football with Steve’s brother Joe, every Tuesday for years. Joe said “Steve’s not even the funniest one in our house!” Brilliant interview and such a talented and very funny man

[@stevehunt914]

I think i remember Steve himself saying that in his book.

[@iMANC1966]

I went to the same school as Steve, albeit he was a year ahead of me. The whole of the Coogan brothers are talented.

[@manxman18]

I have a friend who is a stand up comic and his brother is funnier in real Life. I’m sure it’s not rare

[@regdwight235]

Probably the comedian who’s given me the most laughs ever

[@justthetruth1]

Tommy is good too

[@claymor8241]

A very underrated piece of his oeuvre was Tommy Saxondale. Saxondale the character was my generation, a bit older than SC, from the classic rock era. Steve Coogan’s generation normally dont usually understand that world but he and the writer totally nailed it.

[@brocksamson4245]

Saxondale was awesome, would be great to see a reprieve..but at least there's 2 seasons of gold

[@rhysperegrine5100]

I think Coogan's brother was a roadie

[@brocksamson4245]

@rhysperegrine5100 That explains it then 😄

[@peterscourfield9533]

This all day long. Saxondale was a wonderful character

[@simon1868]

Agree on Saxondale. Amazing underrated show.

[@rosemarysilverman1855]

Tommy is a great interviewer, I can't imagine it's easy to get Steve to relax and talk. Fantastic!

[@BigKav79]

I think it's also the lack of a live audience, they can have a quiet conversation

[@t.least.he.was.honest]

he looked pretty shite to me each kissing others arse

[@funkychickenthesecond2102]

He’s ok, but very hit and miss as an actual communicator. A perfect example of this is the one minute segment starting at 01:35. He’s unable to actually formulate a coherent question despite having a few goes at it and I’m not sure that Coogan actually knew what it was that he wanted to say either!

[@KLR-l9l]

The audience are dead

[@soeffingwhat]

@@funkychickenthesecond2102 The whole idea is that he has no idea what guests he's going to get. Other Hosts do and their questions are prepared in advance, which is why on many different talk shows the guests are being asked the same questions over and over again. This is refreshing in comparison.

[@graphicbars6553]

Wish this was three times longer. Loved it. Met Steve tons of times in Brighton, he’s always interesting, always accommodating, and never big-time.

[@Donalob]

You can tell. It's rare when you genuinely spot a celeb who is genuine.

[@MrDanybe]

Brilliant isnt it, quality comedy

[@antonynicholson9997]

I love how TT just allows his guests to flow. So many interviewers want equal air time.

[@MR-mc6rj]

Alan Partridge talking about U2 and how they encapsulated the boredom of a Sunday. It's the weekend you have to walk the dog, cut the grass, wash the motor and you think to yourself Sunday Bloody Sunday !!! Genius gets bandied about but it applies to Coogan.

[@darkdaughter5472]

The paradoxical moment where Steve Coogan sounds like Billy Connolly and Tommy looks like him...

[@DidYaServe]

I always rated Coogan. He's the best English comedian in terms of understanding Ireland.

Who would've thought that the incredible Tommy Tiernan would be such a great interviewer. Will be following from now on.

Fantastic interview

[@tjchill8634]

County Mayo/Manchester background, I wonder if Steve is related to the Gallagher brothers?!

[@FiveSigma72]

At the top of his game for 30+ years. Tiernan is right, a full on comedy genius....there's no other word for it. My favourite stuff is his Partridge audiobooks, all done in character....it's the motherlode of Partridge greatness. On a side note what a great concept for a chat show...no prepared questions. Really seems to create a more natural conversation.

[@Freehardy]

the audio books are hilarious. if you know his whole career from On the hour onwards. It's absolute genius. I listened all the way from Waverley to King's Cross and LOL for pretty much the whole journey. that day was a rapid transit.

[@gilbertkelly-sx8gh]

A genius and a nice bloke to boot

[@rael1999]

It was nice listening to Steve just chat casually about his life and later in the interview looking more relaxed about it. His comment regarding the intellectual side of things was interesting because it all felt a bit superior when I've heard him talking about the deeper side of things. So it's great so see this side to Steve, as I'm a big admirer of many of the things he's done. The happiness side of things and when he talked about his school mate was also interesting. Matthew Perry said 'When I had everything materially I could ever want, I thought it would change everything and the way I felt, but it didn't'...Happiness is certainly a state of mind and not so much wealth that makes you feel contented. My Grandad had very little but his daughter (My Dad's sister) said he was such a contented man with his lot.

[@PatMo1888]

Steve's Stan Laurel was transcendental.

[@missomurphy]

When I saw the ads for the first season of Partridge, I didn’t recognize Steve and I thought it was a real show so I didn’t watch it. Fortunately I realized eventually and I caught up
