This chapter in the book is one of the finest things ever written. Particularly stating that his one big regret of this episode was giving Joe Beesley and cheeky monkey a break in showbiz.
The gun wasn't pointing at Forbes when it went off. There must have been a second shooter. Justice for Alan. Justice for Forbes also, as Alan points out he could be considered a victim too.
Stuart Kenny 😂 So good! And do I believe the BBC would try to rehabilitate someone who shot man on live telly? Yup. I do easily. (Christ, they tried to rebrand Ann Widdecombe on Strictly.)
The Christmas special didn't air for another year though. This aired in late 1994, and he got his Christmas special in the post Christmas slot in December 1995.
@Nigel Buckham Ah, a nice fake culture war. It's been repeated multiple times since it was made, has been available on DVD for years, and can also be streamed. There's also been loads of new Alan Partridge shows and a film. But hey, keep kidding yourself the evil wokies want to spoil your fun.
@@BenDover-ln6ns Again that's absolute nonsense because Alan Partridge shows regularly get shown on various channels, but sure, make up some stuff in your head about a culture war if you like.
I'm not a complete fan of the show - but there are some great moments and writing, and this is certainly one of them. Love his comment "It's a live show..." after having inadvertently killed someone. Kudos to Steve Coogan et al.
Agreed, this series marks a difficult transition into the superior I'm Alan Partridge. Although I love Coogan and think he's a genius, he peaked during I'm Alan Partridge.
@@adammclaughlin845 A "difficult transition"? Seriously? I'm a huge fan of I'm Alan Partridge, especially the first series which is absolutely brilliant, but Knowing Me Knowing You is pure genius - every episode - and for me remains the jewel in the Alan Partridge crown.
I feel very sorry for Alan Partridge to be honest. He clearly didn’t know the pistol was loaded and it was reckless of Forbes MacAllistar (and probably illegal) to bring it on the show with a bullet in the chamber. Given AP didn’t work for the BBC for 23yrs after MacAllistar’s death, I don’t think we should shed many tears for the death of a man so contemptuous of firearms legislation and long-standing, health and safety policy. Whilst Alan was rightly cleared at the subsequent enquiry, i also think his later conviction and £150 fine for “unlicensed use of a firearm” was ridiculous and a clear sign of a failing judiciary and a police force more desperate to get a celebrity scalp, than serving the best interests of justice.
Actually Alan did work for the BBC after this shooting. He was given one final chance, by being allowed to host a 1995 Christmas special. Called "Knowing Me, Knowing Yule with Alan Partridge". However Alan of course made a disaster of that special, by punching the face of the commissioner of BBC Television who vowed never to allow Alan on television ever again.
This Time would be really funny if it was a modern version of KMKYWAP and Alan was still cocky and arrogant but they've changed the character to be a lot more meek and it doesn't work. If you look at all the canon, This Time should be Alan properly bouncing back and he should be full of himself.
@nbcmatt15 Ha! Of course! Well done! :-) I wondered what would be the WORST thing to have happened, after so much shit has happened to him in the past but I never considered this incident but now you say it, it's obvious. Nice one mate, cheers!
did you see the comic relieve thing when you sneezed blood on a nun, he said oh my god this is the second worst thing that has happened to me, this was obviously the first :).
Приколы
'Like so many gun shot wounds to the heart, this proved fatal"
I, Partridge
The police interrogation chapter after this bit is first class
Haha man I’ve been listening to the audiobook it’s hilarious I can see him in my head
Sweaty palms did it.
This chapter in the book is one of the finest things ever written. Particularly stating that his one big regret of this episode was giving Joe Beesley and cheeky monkey a break in showbiz.
‘In many ways, Forbes too was a victim that night’
- I, Partridge
“What happened to muggings here”
_"You just killed a man, and I'm fired? I'm fired? Wanker!"_
Love that bit.
And his reply kills me😂 "yes, right."
the fact people in the comment section think this is real cements the character of Alan Patridge as a legend in comedy. this show was brilliant.
I think you'll find they are 🎣🎣🎣
There is a laughing track
Americans I’d bet
"he went out like a light, he won't have suffered I shot him straight through the heart"...🤣😂🤣
Famous last words.
"Be Careful With That"
knowing me alan partridge, knowing you: manslaughter
aha
“allow me to reinsert the “laughter” into manslaughter…”
Shoot a quest accidently. Asks "What happens now!" Always cracks me up!
The gun wasn't pointing at Forbes when it went off. There must have been a second shooter. Justice for Alan. Justice for Forbes also, as Alan points out he could be considered a victim too.
The second shooter was on the grassy knoll
It’s the flash of the production card, and the face he’s pulling in it, that I love the most.
"knowing me alan partridge, knowing you the police, ahaa" hahaha amazing!
Within 2 minutes of killing someone, Alan’s telling the viewers that he’s opening a new DIY store😂
This scared the crap out of me when I was 6, genuinely thought it was real!
Billy Hicks So how old are you now?
I still do
Watched it for the first time at 40 and I was horrified, heck looks real
@@PhuSuHuynh It aired 1994 and if he was 6 when it aired. He would be 32 years old now or there abouts.
Having watched the original broadcast as a kid, that production card will haunt me in nightmares.
That just added to the authenticity, as if it was sheer panic up in the VT gallery.
Stuart Kenny
😂 So good! And do I believe the BBC would try to rehabilitate someone who shot man on live telly? Yup. I do easily. (Christ, they tried to rebrand Ann Widdecombe on Strictly.)
@@PurushaDesa Noel Edmonds was off air for two full years after his production team killed a man in a stunt rehearsal. Harsh.
And Partridge still got a Christmas special and expected a second series.
The Christmas special didn't air for another year though. This aired in late 1994, and he got his Christmas special in the post Christmas slot in December 1995.
BBC for you init, you can kill a man live on air and they'll welcome you back with open arms smh
‘Cover him up, cover him up’😂😂
...he wouldn't have suffered, I... shot him straight through the heart!
The joker ripped this scene off change my mind
You’re laughing? Tony Hayers won’t commission a second series and you’re laughing?
We're all here for the same reason.
Who’s here because of Alec Baldwin?
Hope the Texas Homecare opening went well.
May I be the first to offer my condolences to Forbes.....Glenn...
I love how Alan forgot the surname of the man he shot so quick, that he had to ask Glen for it at 1:27 - brilliant moment, showed the real Alan a bit.
Whos here after Alec Baldwin
Nobody
Joe, Aha!!
didn't know he was a fan of Coogan
You can have him
Just you, it seems. Loser
Knowing me, Alec Baldwin...
'You've just killed a man, and I'm fired?'
i honestly think with my full heart coogan is the best actor ever
The guy running on and removing the weapon 😂😂
Read or listen to Alan's autobiography to find out how it really went down.
The Last Episode Of Knowing Kme Knowing You With Alan Partridge Episode 6 On Friday 21st October 1994 On BBC2.
Alec Baldwin been watching?
'"And then, live on air in the sixth and final episode of my chat show, i shot a man through the heart with a gun"
- I, Partridge
Anyone here after Alec Baldwin?
“It made the show as unmissable as Forbes Mcallaster’s aorta.”
Forbes, who may or may not have had a violent temper.
The cut away picture is legendary.
The term “Genius” is overused, but Coogan should be in this category.
This came in my head after what happened with Alec Baldwin
Same here…..
Not the only thing thats came in your head im sure
Join the club
This seems relevant today
So *this* is where Jeremy got "...and on that bombshell" from!
Yep.
TV gold, Alan’s finest hour
Just before this the dead man had gone on a long rant about how much he hated the pipers. :D
A consummate showman...showbiz personified. 😊
this is how alan lost his tv series!!! after this his career spiralled and he became a dj on radio norwich but this was the end of his carreeer
Actually it was after he punched his boss Tony Hayers with a Christmas turkey
What are you talking about he bounced back have you not read his book?
Be careful with that 😅🤣
That man could use a hastily improvised pringle shroud...
Knowing me Alan Partridge knowing you the Police. Ahaa
This is the moment that made Alan. His "bon d'être" if you will.
He died doing what he loved, hating things
I wish someone would post the full Forbes McAllister interview. “I hate you, not as much as I hate you.” 😂
I came here after Alec Baldwin shot his camerawoman. Does that make me a bad person?!
We all came for the same reason
If you are then you're in good company 😉
@@Bradonomous Speak for yourself!
I am crying with laughter here in the office - why on earth don't they repeat this on TV again?
@Nigel Buckham Ah, a nice fake culture war. It's been repeated multiple times since it was made, has been available on DVD for years, and can also be streamed. There's also been loads of new Alan Partridge shows and a film. But hey, keep kidding yourself the evil wokies want to spoil your fun.
They should definitely show knowing Yule at Christmas time, it’s bloody brilliant. Again the leftists would throw their toys out the pram.

The Balmoral Highland Pipers - Scotland’s number 1 bagpiping combo!
Knowing Me Alan Partridge
Knowing You The Police, Aha
To be fair to Alan, Forbes McAllister genuinely deserved to die.
this is why people love him he is a nutter!!
Alan never did get to go to do that store opening at world of leather.
Alan Baldwin
"Needless to say, I had the last laugh."
Lovely Stuff!
Texas homecare, bloody hell I remember those.

RIP Forbes McAllister
Hall of Fame stuff, really is.
Lovely stuff
But it's a good thing, because otherwise we wouldn't have gotten I'm Alan Partridge!
He went out like a light 😅
Well i'm Scottish, and APPLAUD anyone who shoots anyone slagging off the bagpipes
Steve Coogan is a genius, although I didn't that much of 'This Time.' Some of the early Partridge never fails to make me laugh.
This Time would be really funny if it was a modern version of KMKYWAP and Alan was still cocky and arrogant but they've changed the character to be a lot more meek and it doesn't work. If you look at all the canon, This Time should be Alan properly bouncing back and he should be full of himself.
@@nudisco300 I think he's started to become more confident this season
He wanted a 2nd series after this
"Smell my cheese you mother."
"knowing me Alan Partridge, knowing you the Police Aha"
@Professor6871 There are DVDs of I'm Alan Partridge so I'd expect that there is a DVD of this.
He went out like a light...
can't blame Alan how was he to know the musket was loaded
The final straw for Partridge was not shooting the guest dead but having the producer stamp on his mask afterwards.
And on that bombshell...
"chatting" with the police lmao
Have I got a second series?
Top Draw.
@nbcmatt15 Ha! Of course! Well done! :-)
I wondered what would be the WORST thing to have happened, after so much shit has happened to him in the past but I never considered this incident but now you say it, it's obvious.

He should have worn his stay pressed action slacks.
@Professor6871 Get the pipers back on' Just after you've shot somebody dead on your chat show. Wonderful black comedy.
Alec Baldwins favourite comedy show.
'It's a live show . . .'
"I shot him straight through the heart".
Did Alan make the Texas home care opening a week after Gunning down one of his guests in cold blood 😅😊
This clip is what gave Alec Baldwin the idea for his defence.
This is brilliant stuff. Steve Cooken was amazing in this in the 90s. I wonder if there is any DVDs out there you can buy of this.
Yep, it's available on DVD.
No shit, aceridgey.
How about another chat, Mcallister?
I shot him straight through the heart 😂
This is how it happened folks, scary stuff…. 😬

did you see the comic relieve thing when you sneezed blood on a nun, he said oh my god this is the second worst thing that has happened to me, this was obviously the first :).
Nah. Forbes was a cunt but he had no quarrel with the nun. The worst thing was Steven McCombe stealing his shorts in P.E
