Alan Partridge was superb.
I think The Office was better, but Brent definitely evolved from AP.
I haven't see the movie yet. Any good?

For some strange reason I have never seen a single episode of Alan Partridge, so I can only imagine that it was originally aired in the years when I had a drink problem.

I thought The Trip - to Italy was excellent...... Coogan and Rob Brydon were very good on so many levels, funny, thought provoking, sad... just bloody good, one of the best things on tv this year.
Don't really like him that much in anything else.

He is superb as Alan Partridge but he doesn't write it unlike Gervais and the office.

Sky Atlantic have a 2 part documentary about a recent tour he did in Australia. Really, really good show, if you can find it.
Alan Partridge might be the finest comedy character ever created.

Hairy- It was called 'Stand Up Down Under'.
Don't know if you'll be able to find a free download, but I think you can get it on the iTunes store...
Enjoy!

How did he bizarrely shag her?
Some sort of unconventional positioning?

Alan Partridge yes defo and I like his show with Rob Brydon too. Apparently he can write very well too did a film with Judi Dench that he wrote i am not a big fan of most of his Hollywood films though Genius may be over the top but a brilliant comedy actor i would say yes.

from another interview
Of her brief fling with the 47-year-old actor and comedian, she adds: “All it was, was a couple of shags at the Sunset Marquis [hotel in Los Angeles,] and I did not know he was Alan Partridge. I thought he was Tony Wilson in 24 Hour Party People – somebody I’d always had a daddy thing for. I had never seen Alan Partridge. But I was in a band with people who did know about Alan Partridge, so I had to make a record with them constantly saying to me: 'Back of the net!’”
