Knowing Me, Knowing You
Classic squirm-inducing chat show with Norwich's finest son and former On the Hour sports reporter, Alan Partridge. Steve Coogan plays the incompetent but self-satisfied Norwich-based host.
Knowing Me, Knowing You... with Alan Partridge is a British comedy show first broadcast on BBC Radio 4 as a six-episode series, which subsequently transferred to Television. It is named after the song Knowing Me, Knowing You by ABBA (Alan Partridge's favourite band), which was used as the show's title music. The show was a parody of a chat show, and were so embarrassingly accurate that listeners and viewers often thought they were the real thing. Many wrote in to complain, for example, at Partridge slapping a child prodigy in an episode of the radio series. The series did feature an audience who clearly knew the show was a parody, but apparently this wasn't enough to persuade some listeners that it wasn't real.
01. Alan Partridge welcomes a sex therapist and Mr Boutique of 1969 onto his couch.
02. Host Alan Partridge faces up to a nine-year-old prodigy, a hypnotist and a bad boy lawyer.
03. On the couch today are the second best racing driver in France, a loveable East End actress, and a two long term hostages, one with a disappointingly small number of funny anecdotes.
04. Chat show host Alan Partridge is joined on today's programme by a Duchess, a young impressionist and rent boys.
05. Alan Partridge comes 'live from Las Vegas' with a glamorous co-host, a song, a smile and several plugs for socks.
06. Exposed today - naked ambition and a naked 'woman's area'. Add one dead Lord and this is Alan Partridge. A-ha!
