    The clip omits the part about U2 and Bloody Sunday..."Sunday Bloody Sunday really encapsulates the frustration of a Sunday - you wake up in the morning, you’ve got to read all the Sunday papers, the kids are running around, you’ve got to mow the lawn, wash the car, and you think “Sunday, bloody Sunday!”

It'll cost ya! Print your boarding card? That'll be another £50! I'm talking about Ryanair, of course, the company that delights in upsetting people.

      100% As a kid I was VERY fussy. Hated tomatoes, beans etc. One year we drove (yes drove) to the French Alps for a skiing holiday (18 hours). When we got to the resort all the restaurants were closed except for a Pizza parlour. Everyone except me ate a Pizza, as I wouldn't touch it as it had tomato on it. We went tobogganing and then got into the self catering chalet and mum cooked us dinner (without tomato!) and just as she was about to dish it up, I fainted through hunger. Fell right off the back of the wooden dining bench 🤣 Irony is that now as an adult, Pizza is one of my favourite foods...though I still hate raw tomatoes and baked beans

If I were to go to pieces like they do every time someone put their foot in it I'd have been on a mental ward after a month.

      If you watch the full series, Alan is infatuated with her (the restaurant is part of the hotel he's living in, and she's a senior staff member). iirc, one of the Irish blokes makes a comment about her which Alan interprets as them not liking her. He's so desperate to impress them, and so pathetic in reading people, he carries on disparaging her in the Alanesque idea this will make them like him.

    Since then, I've tried to see everything I can of A.P. - my favorite character since Rik Mayall's magnificent portrayal of Alan B'Stard in 'The New Statesman'.
    Hard to believe it was made so long ago - '87 - and that he left us so soon. (Wonder if using the name 'Alan' is paying homage to Rik.)
