Mike from re gen tv, likes throwing he's dummy out of he's pram, if you don't agree with him. Translated that means throwing he's pacifier out of he's stroller😂then he blocks you, so immature I know you are friends and you will probably block me aswell now but i hope not i just voice an opinion, nothing malicious or offensive.

Great reaction but why is it that floridian women get British humour more than their counterparts. Queen Taylor and Jess (re gen tv) would be an awesome patreon, just so much more clued up than Steve and Mike!!! Just more intelligent i suppose 😂

It baffles me how they allow on the radio! Lol!
Tayanna Studios
Agreed.

True, but to be fair, when I first watched this when it aired I actually thought she was that bored that she just wanted a "quickie". Obviously not! Lol

Americans never get that Susan is just trying to freak Alan out. She literally hates him
Andy Gore
Yeah for sure I agree, this is the weakest episode of both series..but still funny in parts. Really glad to see you both enjoying it.. Alan Partridge character is genius and hope you continue to watch his newer stuff also after both seasons.

Oh I actually found it quite funny, lol. But it’s good to know if this is the worst, the rest are going to be amazing

😂😂 thank gos he knew it or this story might’ve ended differently 🤣
Killermcknight
It really was!
Killermcknight
Yes we do. We should’ve had the next episode up yesterday but didn’t get a chance to even record it until yesterday late afternoon, it’s going to be up today.

Worst episode of the series, my a stretch... who'd have thought making an episode about boredom would end up boring?!

Never actually done it myself, but had a mate at uni who had about 5/6 of them in his communal lounge at hall's in his first year.

Don't know if it's the same in the US but it's very common in 🇬🇧 for people to drunkenly steal traffic cones. Don't ask me why, it just is 😂
Adam G
Personally love this ep. His face when talking to the police officer 🤣👌

I actually have a bit of a story relating to this episode. So about 12 years ago or so, I had been on a night out and was running home (running because it was cold and just wanted to get home) and a police car screeched and pulled up next to me. Coincidentally by some road works where there were traffic cone's. To question me about where I had been and where I was going ect. And in my response played out the lines from this ep. 'I wasn't trying to steal a traffic cone' 'I just got it to be sick into, I didn't want to be sick on the road, car's might skid on it' 'to an innocent bystander it could may look like traffic cone theft' Turned out he was a fan of Partridge and got what I was doing, so we had a laugh about it. I ended the questioning by saying 'I'm going to go home, and probably just go straight to bed and just keep out of trouble' I was still a bit drunk at the time but had sobered up a little. Anyway turned out it was mistaken identity and that I just matched the description of someone they were looking for and because it was early hours of the morning and running they stopped me 😂

He even sellotapped custard cream biscuits to his face and had the screws as claws 😂

Was waiting for this ep to tell you that my mate dressed up for Halloween as 'Zombie Alan' He went all out with the details for the costume. 😂

“Idea for a programme called ‘Free Spirits’. ……no, change that to ‘Bad Attitude’.” Oh, Alan! You *nearly* let go! 😂 Great intro from Stephen, again 👍
Jamie Chadaj
"Read the smallprint on ya conetract" absolutely brilliant bit of banter there.
Kieran B
He didn’t buy the house because he didn’t get the new series, hence living in the hotel (or rather his sordid little grief hole) for 4 episodes so far
Kieran B
Susan is just messing with Alan
Ryan Lynch
That intro is the best Stephen has ever sounded.

Do you still do inbetweeners?
