@@FiveSigma72 not quite, although that is a ruddy good reference you've made. The joke I was making (if you can call it a joke) is referencing his book I, Partridge, in which he celebrates a potential new TV project by driving to Delia Smith's house, shouting "oh Delia, guess who's back in the big time" and driving off. By the time he gets to Richard Bacon's house, he accidentally gets his words mixed up and shouts "guess who's big in the back time." It's essentially a less funny version of when he says "surely that's the worth of boast worlds".
Very funny indeed, especially when Alan starts to kiss the BAFTA award. Perhaps in a mythic TV programme, Tommy Shelby will turn up at Downton Abbey. Now, that's one programme I would watch!
@@ruthmilligan3437 For them to be funny, it's important that comedy characters are consistent and convincing. That's hardly a controversial opinion! Comedy characters can evolve over time (Partridge being a perfect example of that) but this little skit wasn't entirely accurate to Alan's character; he's not that self-aware (e.g. the bit about Downton and Daily Mail readers). I'm not too arsed about this as it's only an acceptance speech (and it is still funny) but it'd be a shame if Coogan's views (which I have no issue with) seeped into future Partridge series too much.
I love it when entitled celebrities make fun of themselves to convince people their privilege is justified, and no one can convince the little man of the need for a rigid class structure like Alan Partridge. He really demonstrated his knack for the common tongue at the end.
@@emuman09 yeah I know - I think I'm just too used to the later stuff like Scissored Isle, From the Oasthouse, Mid Morning Matters, Nomad, Alpha Papa etc
Who told this guy he's funny, how as he had a career with this stupid character. The laughing seems very canned, probably the only way he gets a laugh.
Everyone's entitled to their opinions but Alan Partridge is one of the most successful comedy characters of all time, so Coogan is clearly doing something right
Not everyone understands satire. You have to have a certain level of understanding of pop culture, politics, and general world affairs to be able to comprehend the references, and a sense of irony to understand the humor. It's not for everyone as you so boisterously demonstrate. But that's ok. You're providing, no doubt, mildly relevant perspective to someone who cares, and endless volumes of material for smart satirists like Steve Coogan. Carry on!
That was the best speech since Gary Wilmot's wedding
minus the full English

@@blairosh_ You're nitpicking
Use the sausage as a breakwater.
God that’s good. Can I shake your hand?
Good to see that Alan is big in the back time
Just don't tell Gary Rhodes
Lol is that a fat back joke? Bravo sir.

I'd have to say, the best of the baftas.
Ahhh classic from his Cook Pass Babtridge days! 😂
good to see satire is still alive and well.
Summarised Downton Abbey in one sentence.
Splendid and tremendous!
In a word.... bloody brilliant!!!
Loved the dig at Piers Morgan.
I don't understand the reference. Who is that?

first class satire! ruddy bloody brilliant!
Good to see Alan at the BAFTAs ….. people bounce back!
Lovely stuff, not my words but the words of Shakin Stevens
Ruddy bloody genius!! I cant get enough of Alan!!
Abso-bloody-exactly!
Back of the net !
Let's pop the extractor fan on, get a through draught going!
That's first class
GENIUS!
That was the best thing all show
Steve got in some great digs in less than two and a half minutes 😁🙌
0:20 I love this side swipe comment of the Eton jobs for the boys lot, brilliant.
I reckon some of this is aimed at Steve's co-performers from his Spitting Image days (even though that was ITV).
It's set in a mythical world where posh people are kind to poor people.... 👍
Mythical indeed
Brilliant
Lovely stuff
Lovely stuff. Not my words. Not Piers Morgan's words either.
Lovely stuff.
Should have worn his string-back gloves for better purchase on the BAFTA
Satire how I missed you
In off the red..
You wouldn't be able to get away with that kiss nowadays.
Ruddy brilliant
Funny man

too too funny
Who do you think you are?
you bad boy 😆
Needless to say, I had the last laugh
Although you'd probably say, needles.
🤣
That wasn't Alan Partridge speaking. It was Steve Coogan.
It was both.
I do agree. It was very funny but it did veer slightly too far into Coogan territory at points.
@@SongBillong Agreed. Using Partridge as a bit of a vehicle for Coogan's politics which kind of goes against everything partridge is.
bro who cares

Been a fan of Steve Coogan his whole career, he is brilliant. Unfortunately some people don’t get satire ! 😂
This isn't satire.
@tynebar it is.
Hilarious.

its too weird watching AP with audience laughter
Despite the fact that's been present in many of his shows.

“Monkey Tennis”
Wish his live show was the same quality! Fobbed his fans off on the rubbish and pulls a speech like that out for his showbiz pals!
Is that you, High Noon?
Yeah the live show was really disappointing. It had a few great moments but that's it.
@@paulrouhan7288 I think you're my best friend.
@@paulrouhan7288 I always assumed that High Noon was B.Odie
Much prefer it if the speech was done by Steve Coogan. He's a non political, humble, working class hero.
Alan hasn't aged well. Better than Coogan though.
Don't know what it is but Steve coogan can't do a classic partridge anymore 🤔
Ah haaaa
SMELL MY CHEESE YOU MOTHER!!!!
That's bollocks but go on
Remember when partridge was funny 🤡
Who told this guy he's funny, how as he had a career with this stupid character. The laughing seems very canned, probably the only way he gets a laugh.
High Noon, you're trying too hard.
The only way he gets laughs? He's on tour with this character and selling out venues ffs
