I'm Alan Partridge
I'm Alan Partridge is a BBC situation comedy starring Steve Coogan that aired in two seasons of six episodes each, the first in 1997 and the second in 2002. The sitcom followed the titular Alan Partridge, a failed television presenter whose former adventures were portrayed in the chat-show parody Knowing Me, Knowing You with Alan Partridge, and who is now hosting a local radio show in Norwich. Both series were written by Peter Baynham, Coogan, and Armando Iannucci; Coogan was supported by Felicity Montagu as his faithful, mouse-like personal assistant, Lynn Benfield; Simon Greenall as Geordie Travel Tavern handyman/BP garage attendant Michael; and Phil Cornwell as disc jockey Dave Clifton. Both critics and fans praised it, and it was nominated for three BAFTAs, two British Comedy Awards, and a Royal Television Society award.
