Knowing Me, Knowing You with Alan Partridge

Two Episodes from the Hit BBC TV Series

By: Steve Coogan, Armando Iannucci, Patrick Marber

Narrated by: Steve Coogan, Rebecca Front, Patrick Marber, David Schneider, Doon Mackichan, Full Cast

'Knowing me Alan Partridge, knowing you... a-ha!' A lot of people say that, when it comes to drama and comedy, the pictures are so much better on the radio. As Alan Partridge says, 'all those people are wrong'. There's a new chat in town as the hit programme comes live from BBC Television Centre, and Alan ushers on a variety of guests including horsewoman of few words Sue Lewis, powerful hypnotist Tony le Mesmer, fashion designer Yvonne Boyd, and husband and wife thespians Tania Baker and Gary Baker. There's also a whole edition of the programme broadcast from sexy Paris, city of French people. Joining Steve Coogan as he squirms his way across the easy chairs are Steve Brown, Minnie Driver, Rebecca Front, Melanie Hudson, Doon MacKichan, Patrick Marber and David Schneider.© and (P)1996, 2003 BBC Worldwide Ltd

Not Episodes, Just Clips

Although a lot of this content can be found on YouTube, I decided to drop a few bucks to be able to listen to some episodes from the TV series on Audible. Of course Alan Partridge and Steve Coogan are amazing as usual, but my complaint is that there are no episodes, just clips. It's annoying because you know what should come next, but it jumps to something else instead. Listen to the first part, and you'll hear that Roger Moore will be on later in the episode, but you don't get to hear his appearance (wink wink). But seriously, you don't get to hear the end of the episode and Alan's failure. It's disorienting. I recommend against buying this, especially if you have watched the tv series and no matter how much you love Alan.
