Knowing Me Knowing You - The Complete Series - Plus Christmas Special (DVD, Boxed set)

Aha! Alan Partridge, 'King of Chat' (or alternatively the chat show host from hell), manages to rub all of his guests' backs up in all six episodes from the first series of 'Knowing Me, Knowing You'. Finest comedy moments include the 'head shlapping' bald Brummies, the famous ABBA medley, 'Cheeky Monkey' and the French clowns. Steve Coogan is Partridge, Patrick Marber, David Schneider, Rebecca Front and Doon MacKichan are the regular guest stars, while the writing staff includes Coogan, Marber and Armando Iannucci. Whilst 'Knowing Me, Knowing Yule...' sees Alan Partridge return in this one-off Christmas special, in the comfort of an exact replica of his Norwich home. The self-styled king of chat uses his incisive questioning skills on a whole host of minor celebrities (portrayed by the regular cast), whilst trying to secure a second season of his regular chat show.
