"Devoted himself quietly - and without fuss or fanfare - to his charitable foundation: The John Baskell Foundation."
Absolutely brilliant.
Such humble work.
Very much Jeremy Vine/Nicky Campbell stylee.
The "humble" trick is the Ted "Anonymous" Danson way. #Curb
That little glance after he puts out the candle, it’s a fraction of a second but it tells you so much about Alan
Yes. Please check out 2:09 though, look at Baskell's face. Total Anti-Alanism there.
I also love that he takes the candle from the memorial and then throws it away.
One of the understated funny bits is how at first it looks as though there's loads of memorial cards, but it only takes up a tiny portion of wall.
The subtle jabs at John being a man of the large variety 😂😂
Fat. Say it
'cooked breakfasts in blazing sunshine'
The way his voice breaks when he has to twist his neck to follow the camera. Hahahahahahahaha
This show is peak Partridge. It's perfect.
Nice tribute to John. His family will take great comfort from this. Lovely stuff.
It’s the part in this actual episode when Alan goes over to Sidekick Simon to read the messages and tweets of sympathy. One of the messages made me laugh, it read’ John Baskell will be mist’ . The spelling mistake was genius.
“Fortune favours the bold” 🤣love Lynn
The part with Lynn makes me really want another modern series of I'm Alan Partridge.
The passion with which he says “TERRIBLE REVIEWS!!”
John Baskell was, a controversial figure at the beeb, at times: but Partridge and Edmonds etc, owed the Baskells off this world alot.
Gibraltar CID, was the original blueprint for 24 hours in police custody.
Like him or loath him, Baskells work at times was seminal...RIP Jamie Baskell; your name will never be forgotten.
Now do it again in English.
Indeed, Jeremy Baskell's name will always live in our hearts.
Yeah this aged well, when you see what John was really up to. Thank god for honest men like Alan who was willing to call it all out.
I met the actress who plays Lynn in a coffee shop in the Cotswolds a few years ago. Her hair was majestic and she was lovely. Glad I didn’t get on her bad side, seeing this now.
Was she a Cotswolds Commuter?
@@GregOrCreg Tinder?

Makes me wonder if the real Alan Partridges of the world have such faithful self-loathing personal assistants putting up with their $h1t for years on end.
Like a cross between Margaret Thatcher’s and a brown cloud?
"Seems to me, he lived his life like an oilrig flarestack in a North Sea gail"
- Alan Partridge
Physically quite squat...
Even today, I have to stop myself tearing up over a cracked custard cream at the passing of the unforgettable John Driscoll.
This is the best version of candle in the wind, hands down.
I mean, from the way he mentions John's diet which lead to his heart attack, the name of his first show being 'Get away!', it is genius.
I for one will never forget. Big John Part of the soundtrack of my life who can forget the Classic Children’s tv series. Ask Baskell . And Baskell you Rascall. Great series RIP John
I preferred the investigative show he did in the style of Roger Cook, 'Baskell Case'.
I remember him hosting the long running show Monkey Tennis on BBC2. Great idea for a show. Bet the fella who came up with it was seething at how he missed the presenting gig
One of his last projects was a planned revamp of Screen Test, with Josie D'Arby presenting. Could have been marvelous.
"Your candle burned out long before your legend ever did," continued Elton.
😂
There is broad agreement that John was good.
I love how Alan uses so many fat, greed and food puns when describing John and his career. Lmao.
Tony Hayers must have been in a good mood when John pitched all that lot.
Don't slag him off
Either that or Baskell had friends in high places.
Met Baskell once in the BBC bar in Belfast: he was over there/here, as part off his mini series this island and a bit off the other one ( northern Ireland) the episode he finished with in Belfast, began in Wakefield...
It was about bowler hats,,, they finished off in Belfast, the Orangemen who march (month off July) are the only people in the UK who still wear bowlers.
He was with Eamon Holmes, I bought both off them a drink, Baskell had a single malt, and Eamon had a gin and bitter lemon, and a pkt off dry roasted peanuts: the night ended well,with Baskell who not many knew, had a great baritone voice, sang Danny boy, the jumbawhumba version...man off the people was John,,,(RIP)
P.S I was in the BBC bar because my brother, had been in the studio on the news, trying to have a miscarriage off justice overturned, having done 17 years in H.M.P./s for singing come out ye black and tans, outside a mosque....
_Reports this comment to DCI Lambert cause he's up to speed_
@@iorekby he isn't west Midlands is he? Part off the team that's sent the G4 (Guildford four) team down?
If he is: he can eff off!
Of
@@beniteztheconman of: Thank you.
Candle in the wind singing is perfect.
RIP John Baskell. He will be remembered...
1:15 Alan attempting to break own neck .
And Lynne going dark at the end.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Have no fear little one...I'm here to protect you!" Love Lynns understated ruthless streak. :)
It's not the original Lynn
@@artomarto679 Wtf are you on about?
What the nanny says to Damien.
@@artomarto679 It’s Felicity Montagu.
protect thee
The singing though. Wonderful
Probably the best episode in series one of This Time. I feel as though I may have watched some of Baskell's output back in the late 1980's.
2:02 that singing is brilliant
My favourite Baskell moment was when he presented Record Breakers when Roy Castle was off having a hernia op . . . you could tell he had no time for the kids or the Irish and that made it so much funnier.
Lol
Yes, we're talking 1975. Like Castle, Baskell played a mean trumpet solo at the end of the episode, only to be disclosed years later that he was miming to a Humphrey Lyttleton record. Still, you've got to admire the man's gumption.
@@goodlife6145 there is actually, a great upload off Baskells father, who was one qtr off the Dave Brubeck jazz quartet....playing golden brown (you tube) John's father playing double base (sorry bass)
A must see for any Jazz or Baskell fan....
@@goalltheway-pm8xs The Baskell clan was very much the pioneer of cool jazz-punk. For a bit.
@@goodlife6145 Johnny Rotten/Miles Davis....type vibe..?
I'm still laughing at Clunt from episode 1.
A repurposed true story involving Diana Dors and Stewart Grainger.
It's Fuck. I mean, Fluck.
Clunt.
Fluck.
Fuck!
FLUCK!
I love how Lynn is sttill with him after all the years of abuse 😂
Anne?
Lynn
@@TokyoJoe703 I meant Lynn sorry dudes
But this Lynn bites back. Arousing stuff
She will never leave him now, at her age great difficulties getting a job...don't even think she was furloughed...throughout the whole covid debacle...
Steve Coogan is a genius
0:06 No gap between him saying "...in the wind" and "so said Elton John".....I've heard presenters, sports commentators (particularly ITV football commentators) ACTUALLY talk like that over the decades. So in other words, by doing that, they're more interested in their OWN delivery than the lyric they've supposedly chosen for its resonance. Partridge goes on to take it where those presenters would love to take it but only in their dreams!! Well parodied, Steve Coogan.
1:54 - 2:04 Very clear foreshadowing but damn he kept that hand there for an uncomfortable amount of time.
"Great show terrible reviews" I think we can all relate to that at times.
"Its always good to hedge your bets especially at a time of grief...I was going to do a touching eulogy, no time for that now, in short John Baskell was on telly, did charity work, good to friends, three marriages, now question marks over conduct”
- Alan
I've just fouled my unders watching Lynne. Then gave her some sweets.
The Late John Baskell. 1953-2019
" She was like a candle in the wind........unreliable ."
I wish I was more attractive, like Dagless.
I like the harshness of him pronouncing John's name as "BASS-kol" almost to show that he's not worthy of a good pronunciation, but his wife gets the eloquent pronunciation "bass-KELL"
EXCELLENT insight, terrible ratings
The devil's in the detail. And takes many forms.
@@goodlife6145 only god can smite him
"what WAS he like?" 😂😂
I wonder how many media "personalities" eye Coogan suspiciously when their paths cross, wondering if they are the butt of the joke. He is horrific but entirely plausible.
John was the porridge in the bbc breakfast menu
Richard Madeley is the embodiment of Alan.
Thank you for this insight.
Saw Madeley on GMB this week. He's getting (even) worse...
@@christophersmith6510 Never heard anyone make that comparison before. You're right, it's verrrrry insightful. And original. So ruddy ruddy original.
By the way did you hear that bears like to poop in the woods! I know, I was shocked too.
@@christophersmith6510 Commenter John is right with his analysis. You are just being salty and nit picky with your retort!!!
The life of John Baskell...by Alan Partridge.
(0:14) Those sound effects! 😆
Hi Alan, I saw you at a petrol station once. You had jeans on.
Addled with Catherine Cookson 😂😂🤣🤣
Fouled my unders… made me laugh too much than it should have 😂
Whenever I see the news and the newsreader say good evening I always add AHAAAAAAAAAA
Rip John Baskell, This Time will never be as good (or never be the same , as AP would say)😆
'fouled my unders' has to be added to thee list of Alan phrases to be used when possible.
Britain's Holiest Hymn
Your mind is addled with Catherine Cookson 😂
Sampling cooked breakfasts in blazing sunshine
We should be friends
Lynn is formidable
It needn't cost you a King's Ransom.
John Baskell was always underrated, in my opinion. He was one of the old school: solid, dependable, rarely as bigoted as many people liked to make out. R.I.P, big J.B. we will all miss you!!!
Love this-full of back handed insults and cynicism best summed up by 1:26! 1:43-1:50 is such a great 'golden period'!
“I would have fouled my unders”
I actually used to watch John Baskell in the 70s. Or was it Baskill?
Anyway, one of them. Or something similar.
Unforgettable.
A giant of family TV.
This little piece of video is cheap and grubby and unspeakably cruel.
Baskell was a great man.
“Fly Tip Squad” - oh please will somebody commission that…
Lynn as Lady Macbeth is pretty, pretty, pretty scary!! 😂
Apparently, he lived in dread off a knock on the door; during the operation yew tree debacle...a helicopter passed over his bungalow on the way to cliff Richards spread and reportedly this laid to John's first bout off angina..and subsequent heavy (heavier) drinking.
I would watch Flytip Squad.
And Gibralter CID now exists.
He hates anyone who attempts to be in the limelight so he has to stoop to insult and getting annoyed Great character 😤
Cheap and cheerful's a good epitaph. Bravo, Alan.
I love Lynn!
Is John Baskell played by Peter Wight?
Lynn is becoming a little bit lady Macbeth, who'd have known?
Lady McBenfield
fouled my unders
#johngone
Rasmus Hardiker at the end ?
"...by Alan Partridge"
The show was like the man himself... cheap and cheerful 😂
Something I've learned from This Time: Alan Partridge should never, under any circumstances, be given a second series.
Series one was first class, though.
Marilyn Monroe, Princess Diana, the list goes on...
Shark well and truly jumped.
As an American i don’t have a clue who John Baskell is, but he’s obviously not a favorite of Alan’s. Still funny.
@1:13 = “Chester”
The old BBC centre is starting to look a bit like Grey Gardens. Don't they get anyone in to give it a trim?
"...but there is BROAD agreement that ʲᵒʰⁿ ʷᵃˢ ᵍᵒᵒᵈ"
#JohnGone
He's lost weight but hasn't aged a bit
What was he doing on the bloody roof?
Yes because your mind is addled with Catherine Cookson
It needn’t cost you a kings ransom

Bbbbbbbbbbbbrave widow
'continued Elton'...
Her brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrave widow
The late Michael Barrett should sue .
It's no exaggeration to say Scotland's vast reserves of oil and gas will burn our long before Johns memory ever will...exaggeration? Possibly haha
😂👌
😂😂😂😂
yes this is satire. that hand on the knee for just too long.
I like how Scotland's Strongest Man is rolled out as a punchilne; meanwhile, it's become a genuine draw, what with the Stoltmans and all!
