Yeah. I think the realisation by Alan that he is the 'sad and lonely ' one out of the two of them. I always thought he kind of hung out with Michael to make himself feel better.

I've only ever made that face once. In my teens, when my mate told me that a girl that I was in love with had started a relationship with another one of our friends. 🤣
A very useful tool! It's the face you pull when your girlfriend is banging on about liking America and how everyone there is soooo much better, more attractive and fun. Cue: shrug and "who gives a flying monkey's?" face
-You're a Bond guy, are ya? My man's gotta be Wayne. -What, Wayne Sleep? -No, you know, Wayne, err, "Get off your horse and drink yer milk". -Yeah yeah, Wayne Sleep.
This is where it I find myself relating to Alan.. and do not want to. Scene captures that feeling of insecurity when you sense that others might be moving beyond your own friendship, and feeling left out of others in-jokes. Really nailed it.

@@TonyEnglandUK he goes to get a ginsters, you hear a rustle like he is picking up/opening a packet and then he instantly appears at the counter in a relaxed pose with nothing in his hands on 'yeah I used to hang around the states'
Alan's face in the first 30 seconds when he's standing behind Tex is hilarious. It's subtle, but you can just see how Tex is starting to annoy him and he can't wait to catch him out on something.
Check him out in Black Books, has a reading voice that sends Fran mad, she gets orgasms just from hearing him talk. I still like him most as in the ITV sitcom "Hardware" as Martin Freeman's pal Kenny. If you haven't seen Hardware, it really is worth at least one spin
Root beer is like fizzy benylin... remember after me parents broke up for a while me dad lived in a bebsit and one of the others who lived there was called Tex and yes he had the tasseled coat and cowboy hat....

Classic Partridge!
Beats the hell out of The Office

Could watch partridge forever

Funny Every time you watch it.

Which line in Partridge is better than "I think there's been a rape up there"?
“Do you chat to any other men?”
“Michael what the hells going on?” 🤣
Absolutely one of the best comedy characters ever written, if not the best! Every episode is utter class.
