  • Mark Goodier interviews Richard Madeley on Radio 2 who sounds remarkably like Alan Partridge
    I was driving one afternoon in 2016 and, scanning through the radio, came across this interview and was astounded at the Partridgeness of Madeley. Not just the subject matter, but the tone of voice. It's so ruddy Partridge

      It's painfully Partridge isn't it, circa Scissored Isle, the period when it had dawned on Alan that he had sometimes been undiplomatic in the past.

    If Steve Coogan's Alan partridge interviews this man in real life I truly believe the world as we know it will implode

    Madeley`s preamble is profoundly positively peppered with Partridgeisms

    Richard Madeley was an anchor on Granada Reports when Coogan was in his late teens. It's likely that he and the late Tony Wilson were big influences when Coogan created Partridge.

    I saw a clip of Richard Madeley as Alan Partridge last week & it was funny, but forgetable. Tonight I've stumbled across him interviewing some squatters and now this. I won't be able to see, hear or think about Richard Madeley, without thinking of him as Alan Partridge. Great stuff.

    Coogan says in interviews that Madeley was a key influence on the shaping of the Alan Partridge character. It's obvious when you listen to this... Fantastic.
