I must've watched this 100 times but what gets me is not only how funny the whole thing is, but the little touches that make AP such a well rounded character. Like the joy in Alan's face as he projects his Alpen fantasy on Bono is priceless. Such great acting and writing!
Perhaps not! But they don't mind the free promotion they received and the fact that this episode must have drawn many more visitors to the location who had never heard of it before! You know how it goes, they all spend money - in that canteen if nothing more! :)
I love the details in this scene. I doubt Lynn would have heard of Adam Clayton so obviously did her research to impress Alan but all 3 of them didn't know Larry's name!
I love his little look when he says "The biggest bowl of Alpen you've ever seen Massive, it is." Like he's imagining a massive bowl of Alpen and thinking how happy he'd be with it.
Remember a while back when The Edge fell off the stage? The comments were all stuff like "The Edge if Foine" and "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA you gotta laugh when you fall off a stage"
Probably the funniest sketch ever along with the Dan, Dan sketch. One of our finest comedic talents. I remember seeing Coogan as a very young man on the Krypton Factor
Those two plus the ‘you can’t!’ South African scene! And the whole rest of the fireplace episode including the disastrous Dante fireplaces presentation
Partridge must surely have been on the shortlist as the new presenter of the factor! The Krypton factor remashed, think the Crystal Maze meets The Chase meets Charlie and The Chocolate factory, is chocolate a bit racist? Scrap that! Would have been OK for the younger Alan.Methinks older Alan needs something less energetic though, a series of one to one's at various venues, think partnerships and global imaging. Light yet heavy...
Can only imagine how funny it would have been to see the conversation between Lynn and Andrew at the Baptist Church as she asks him to be Bono. And as she suggests her mum's cataract glasses will be the clincher!
I bought a Zooropa shirt just like that in 1995 at a t-shirt stand in a shopping mall. The guy who sold it to me looked like Jean- Michel Basquiat wearing a rawhide necklace with a small leather bag connected to it. Ah, the good old days.
I wish you attached the clip at the bp station before where they wanted him to take them to bonos and he turns around and says well thanks you two for leaving me right in it!
Apparently (according to her boyfriend), Sinead O'Connor used to laugh her arse off at the Father Ted episode that was a thinly disguised piss take of her.
It's the delivery of "pap concert" that gets me 😆

Who were playing? We were 🤣

He lives the character.
The Sunday Express and the biggest bowl of Alpen you’ve ever seen.
Massive it is.
Alpen Fantasy. Good name for a band. You could get sponsorship and you'd never pay for breakfast again.
But Bono does in fact eat a lot of Alpen ... he ate a box of it before going on stage at Live Aid.
@@davidjames579 The cover band could be called _The 9 Muselis of Zeus_
"At a Paap cansort"
"He is not Bono. He is rubbish." Underrated line.
yeah! bono means good so its a great line
I wonder how many people visit that attraction and shout "Bono?!" while walking around inside? I suspect the National Trust staff aren't too amused.
Perhaps not! But they don't mind the free promotion they received and the fact that this episode must have drawn many more visitors to the location who had never heard of it before! You know how it goes, they all spend money - in that canteen if nothing more! :)
I so wanna do that. BONO!
I actually work there and it happens at least 3 or 4 times a day.
I know someone who works there, must remember to ask him 😂
@@yosieposiejones6590
Sometimes they'll also scream "THERES BEEN A RAPE UP THERE!"...get their attention. Always get their attention.
There's more to Bono... den dis.
I've been to Diss twice ( in Suffolk/Norfolk cant remember)and I have to take a picture of myself under the sign saying that.
Der's more to Bono...den dis.
You can put that on the Ireland tourism advert...
Der's more to dis den Bono.
@@simond7225 Lots of toothless simpletons in Diss
This episode put Blickling Hall on the map. People go there to this day just to see the hatchbacks.
That's Blinkington Hall (if Bono's to be believed...)
And shout Bono everywhere
He's got the biggest collection of "Hatchbacks" in the country....... :)
That completely got me. So much that I couldn’t breathe 😂
At least we know Adam Clayton, the Edge and the drummer are fine.
I love the details in this scene. I doubt Lynn would have heard of Adam Clayton so obviously did her research to impress Alan but all 3 of them didn't know Larry's name!
They are fine. I saw them last week at a pop concert

If U2 could muster up their humor and ask each other if they're fine on RUclips, I would be so happy.

I would be too, to be honest
"Are those your mothers cataract glasses" LMAO. One a many many genius one liners from this show.
The Edge is fine, the drummer is fine. Comedy gold 👊
You mean fain?
IN DE EIIGHTIES.
The drummer is feyne
Great banter.
How’s Adam Clayton?
“I took some pot, and I was briefly mindless” 😂
"How long you live in house?" Sonja maintaining a healthy dose of scepticism there.😂
Uh since theh ehtess
Stop getting Bono wrong!
God that's good. Can I shake your hand again?
Stop getting Partridge quotes wrong!
It was "Stop getting Bond wrong......"
I hate Sebastian Coe!
Remember a while back when The Edge fell off the stage? The comments were all stuff like "The Edge if Foine" and "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA you gotta laugh when you fall off a stage"
Sonja is so underrated in this series.
but I am not scared to dogs
I wonder how she's getting on in Ukraine.
@@happyclappyslappy was just thinking that. Hope she’s okay, slava!
Wonder if the actor is actually Ukrainian
Oh she isn't I googled I guess you guys weren't being serious though
Every now and then, and for no reason at all, I find myself saying “the Edge is fine!”
Me too. Weird
My sister and I randomly say "the drummer is fine" for no apparent reason.
' the drummer is fine'
@@AlisonBryen you must be sick of canteen food from being on tour… I forgot. You’re not Bono
Bucketlist: Visit a Period house, shout BONO! in a lofty hallway and munch through a bowl of Alpen. LOVELY STUFF!

So many to choose from - the funeral scene, 'foot on a spike', farmers, 'cone-tract', cow, "smell my cheese'...the list goes on.
That was Gordon Burns.
Dan!
One day I want to make a bowl of Alpen as big as Bono's
The greatest piece of television history
‘Since the ehtehs’
Your probably sick of Canteen food from being on tour, I forgot your not Bono.
Bono is actually very well known for his hatchback collection 😁
Wonder if he had a Buck Rogers toilet?
I lost it at the parts when she shouts "bonnoo??! " 😂
What did you lose?
@@R0I3I3IE He lost Bono!
Imagine taking a chick on a date somewhere and doing this 😆
Lynn's hair 😆😆 such a fantastic character
Her mum's money has come through.
@@Robin838 well remembered 😆👍
She looks like an explosion!
“Bono’s” accent jumping from Connaught to Ulster & back again :)
pap cansert
But wait... ‘ders more to Oiland dan dis’
and yet the main sod is wearing red white and black, just like his wench. must have paid tho
Reminds me at points of Daniel O'Donnell
Lynn loves Alan so much. If only he could see it
He loves her in a way...
'He has the biggest collection of.... hatchbacks in the country' 😂
Can only imagine how funny it would have been to see the conversation between Lynn and Andrew at the Baptist Church as she asks him to be Bono. And as she suggests her mum's cataract glasses will be the clincher!
At a pap concert lol
Was just chuckling my arse off at that and about to write the same thing😆
I didn't get that
Oh pop
Pahp
"Lynn, are those your mother's cataract glasses?" xD
“Do you fancy a curry”
"I saw them last Thursday at a pap concert" Genius!
Who was playing?
We were
Cashback. I love Alan and I constantly find myself saying (in a terrible Irish accent) “the drummer is fine”
"The biggest bowl of Alpen you've ever seen" 😬
Massive it is 😂
Biggest collection of hatchbacks in the country. 😂😂😂😂
The 'driving' gloves 😆
' the very fact that you're questioning my my my my my MY GOD'
Me and my wife say 'it's Adam Clayton' to each other when we mean it's fine
Whenever I have a big bowl of cereal, I look at it and say "massive, it is."
I love how Alan carries on the line all the way through the house to so easily give up at Sonja's first challenge.
2:07 The delivery of “the man is mentally ill” absolutely perfect. Could be talking about me
I don't think I would have clocked that isn't the real bono
The edge is fine
De Edge is feine.
@@brianm2881 De drummor is feyne.
Dare's more to oirland dan dis.
Pure genius - writing and timing 👌
The Henry VIII line gets me every time
Yes, never thought Partridge would be a Catlick.
I really like to think that was just an ad lib by steve coogan when he saw it hanging there 😂
The biggest bowl of Alpen you’ve ever seen 😂
1:13 Hahaha, the way he holds the stare
"I've been ambushed"
So funny. I really need to watch these all over again.
Everytime someone says "the 80's", I instantly think of fake Bono.
Medaayyyvel Prayyydeaccessor
I say telescopic dampeners...I mean rigid stays
It's the expression he does after saying that that makes it for me.
Ambushed! Good name for a follow up series to Skirmish.
If Coogan ever did a one off episode of Skirmish I would totally watch it 😂
"How long you live in house?"
"Since the '80s."
(reads from brochure)
Yes, we saw it too. Well done.
@@therealdrof 50 people didn't see that
So this is where the idiot lives...

Adam Clayton sold a Jean-Michel Basquiat painting in 2017 for $1.5 mil. Maybe that WAS Jean-Michel Basquiat, and he swapped it for the t-shirt?
I wish you attached the clip at the bp station before where they wanted him to take them to bonos and he turns around and says well thanks you two for leaving me right in it!
Love his delivery of that line 😄
As a U2 fan I find this hilarious
"Helo Alen."
Ok what would bono wear? Sunglasses, and a u2 T-shirt, right now let’s get into character.
Was at a wedding reception a few years ago in a big place like this and kept shouting BONO as we were moved from one room to the other...
Bet no one ever invited you to another wedding again!
Bernard Evans ha ha ha
That is epic!!!! It's just the sort of stupid thing me and my sister would do!!!!
Omg brilliant
@@dd.4910 needles to say…I took…drugs!…

"I forgot, you're not Bono"
The Drummer is fyne
😆😆😆
I remember going to National Trust home some years back and all I could think about is what it would look like if Bono lived there.
'Why the plastic froooot?'
the funniest show ever
helium 30 this American agrees. Love the British humor, hate Teresa May
Imagine watching bono watch this
I prefer to imagine watching him watch the SouthPark Bono episode.
Bet bono was creased up watching it 😂😂😂
Nah…the arse-hole doesn’t have a sense of humor, he had it removed to make more room for his ego.
Apparently (according to her boyfriend), Sinead O'Connor used to laugh her arse off at the Father Ted episode that was a thinly disguised piss take of her.
Bono has the biggest collection of hatchbacks in the country
my fave line in this lol
“ Help yourself to a scone…. you’re probably sick of canteen food from being on tour….. ….. I forgot, you’re not Bono…..….” 😎
How's Bullet Club, Bono?
Bullet Club is fine.
Alan should cross paths with Saxondale
2:28 it’s Daniel O’Donnel 🤣👍
"Is not Bono, is rubbish."
He signed up to the record company over there and to the wef OVER THERE!
World Hell Organisation too probably
....and the other half....over there.
Massive, massive it is
This video is a masterpiece 😂
Massive it is
Those driving gloves are for extra purchase!...just in case you were wondering.
The edge is feyn
The guy that plays Bono is Morrissey from an alternate universe where he changed his name and didn’t become a singer
I like this bono better than the real one.
Late medieeeval predecessor
*Alan you don't remember where is bonos house" she is gorgeous I want to marry her.
STOP GETTING BONO WRONG!
"biggest bowl of alpen you've ever seen" let's just take a minute to imagine, that must be quite something.
Massive it is.
Bono sounds more like Daniel O’Donnell!! 😂😂
If it was U2 on stage then it was definitely a pap concert!
If anyone asks me if I am ok, I always now respond with, ‘The Edge is fine.’
"I forgot; you're NOT Bono..."
Love his Lexus.
I reckon all rock stars have Alpen for breakfast
1:13 Henry VIII. He was a sh*t 😂😂
Beyond awesome.
