Well read

Can you believe this is fifteen years old already? Still sounding as etherially beautiful as ever and all. Ahh Trish, we miss you.

It took my dad a long time to realise that Alan Partridge was a fictional character. He kept saying he'd found somebody on TV who he had to keep watching even though he really didn't like the man because he seemed to be a parody of himself.

That's what makes Alan such a great character I think. The fact that he's utterly preposterous yet still somehow believable.

Just driven past a PC Consumables shop in Yeadon ...
It's name - Alan Cartridge.



Word Veri - hague. Now there's another 'parody of himself'.

Father Christmas awaits and all that. So, pretty please, I'd 'love it' if you'd tell us about the 'I, Partridge' Kip, Kips, Kippers. As Carly Simon once said about book reviews, 'Nobody does it better .. than Mr Kipster. No sir'.

Kippers said...

I, Partridge is a triumph, dah-link! Apparently the audio book version (which Alan himself reads out) is even funnier. That's definitely going on my Christmas present list anyway.

Heh, Alan Cartridge. BTW PC Consumables sounds like a fat copper in a Harry Enfield sketch or sommat.
