"Bravealan Armando Iannucci, Steve Coogan, Peter Baynham November 25, 2002
With the sad passing of Sir Terrence Wogan recently,and all the publicity that had attracted in the newspapers,I was struck by how much he resembled a certain Mr Partridge,maybe its the hair (rumor has it Terry wore a wig) ,the difference being was that Wogan was totally self aware of his persona and played on it very successfully, where as Alan Partridge totally believes in himself and his views and its everyone else who is wrong and can't understand why people do not see things the way he does.Bravealan is a classic example of Alan trying desperately to improve his social standing and friends,at the moment his only real companions is Simon Greenall as Michael,the Geordie petrol pump attendant, Amelia Bullmore as Sonja his Ukrainian girlfriend and of course the ever reliable Felicity Montagu as Lynn Benfield. So when he meets Stephen Mangan as Dan Moody the owner of "Kitchen Planet" on the A416 (road) and a fellow Lexus driver, 'Lexii' ("the plural of Lexus") and not only that they both use the same deodorant.Alan can't believe his luck when Dan invites him to attend Norfolk Bravery Awards? You know who's going to be at the Norfolk Bravery Awards? Alan can not believe his luck the chance to meet Phoebe Nicholls as Karen Colman the Grace Kelly of Norfolk, Her house is massive.They use it in Hammer Horror films. Unfortunately Karen does seem impressed with Alan and his mustard snorting and by the end of the evening Alan is left to his own devices,reduced to eating a cup of beans with a sausage on Michael's doorstep, You haven't got a spoon? Desperate to talk about granite work surface with Dan,Alan wangles his way into Dan's house only to be shown a homemade porno of Dan and his wife Jane Robbins as Ceri Moody ,Your hand is about 3O mil from my gland.Luckily Lynn comes to Alans rescue ,What do you mean? They're sex swappers! This is Defcon One. Alans attempts to better himself are very similar to Harold Steptoes attempts to improve his standing,only instead of Albert interfering,Alan usually only has himself to blame,or Micheal or Sonia or probably Lynn. Alan back firmly where he belongs in his radio studio settles back and enjoys the whimsical song by Brian and Michael. # To paint his matchstalk men and matchstick cats and dogs # Happy in the knowledge that no one is having sex while there listening to his radio show.King of Anglia!
