Its become a tradition amongst my friends that you have to down a Ladyboy on your birthday... Pint of Lager, Gin & Tonic, then a Baileys.

If we're in a pub you have to ask for it by name too!

I saw them recording this on the balcony of City hall in Norwich a few months back. So if you see some buffoon staring at the camera whlie Partridge talks about Norwich, then thats me. Next to the market, eating chips

I thought it was disappointing to be honest.

Not quite sure what it's doing on Sky anyway after all the carry on with Coogan and Murdoch, seems a bit of a sell out.

It was like a weird Partridge/Coogan hybrid character. Not pure Partridge at all.

The last episode on Sky was magnificent. I totally loved the fawning over his "banter jockey".

Did anyone ever watch the Mid Morning Matters on YouTube that came out a couple of years ago? There was about 16, 10 min episodes. It was brilliant, one of my highlights was when he ate a whole orange in one bite

Does anyone know if they are the same series that are being discussed above? or are there other ones too?

There was the guide to Norwich episode and the Open Books one (good and average resp), then they did a series of 6 half hour Mid Morning Matters, which were fantastic!

Speaking of the great Coogan did anyone see The Trip? with Rob Brydon, i haven't got round to watching it yet (even though it old now, but i am sure i will because they are both great).

"The new television series of Norfolk’s most famous fictional radio DJ Alan Partridge has proved successful enough for a second series to be confirmed.

Steve Coogan’s comical creation returned to television screens in June with a special first episode, Welcome to the Places of my Life.

The hour-long episode saw Partridge visit Norwich to explore City Hall, Norwich Market and Riverside Leisure Centre, as part of his fictional Norfolk existence. The episode has emerged as Sky Atlantic’s highest-rating original commission to date.

Sky Atlantic has now confirmed that Coogan is already filming for a second series of Mid Morning Matters, which chronicles Partridge’s life as presenter for fictional radio station North Norfolk Digital.

Naomi Gibney, the acting director of Sky Atlantic, said: “Alan Partridge has been a huge hit for Sky Atlantic, opening our Monday night comedy strand, and I’m delighted we can bring his talents exclusively to Sky customers.”
