Thank you Dave Clifton you inspired me to put down the premium lager and to start drinking cider instead I reach for those apples every day thank you again for your uplifting story
This is my favorite Alan Partridge clip because for all his many faults, it shows that Alan has his good qualities - such as showing compassion for even his bitterest of rivals in Dave Clifton. And yet during the tender moment of his hug with Dave, Alan still maintains his radio professionalism by announcing the time to his audience.
@@davidb6681 I remember enjoying Phil Cornwell when he did impressions of Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Jack Nicholson on Radio 1's Steve Wright in the Afternoon, then the likes of Stella Street and the Glam Metal Detectives. When you get someone of his calibre alongside Coogan it can only mean lovely stuff is on the way.
@@mikewilson714 Stella Street was awesome and the first time I’d seen Phil Cornwall. Star Stories was along the same lines and more recent,starred Kevin Bishop who I thought deserved more recognition for his talent. A bit like Phil Cornwall👍
I love when you see a slight smile. I think you’re right. I’ve also noticed he almost lost it when he did the airbag scene in series two of I’m Alan Partridge 😂
It's a shame they can never go back to their old dynamic now, since their rivalry was so funny, but this scene is so good, it's almost worth it. The moment near the end of Dave's monologue when he finally drops his awful 'radio voice' is so touching, and adds an extra bit of tragedy. He really never switched off his on-air persona around anyone until now.
The warmth and nuance in the writing here is impeccable, this is the sort of closure we needed for the more 'throwaway' characters of the earlier series and it's awesome to see this kind of dedication to the maturity of Alan and everyone in his universe.
This is actually incredible writing. It takes some level of genius to think of something as tragic as the 'invisible dad' story. I love that they explored the Dave Clifton character more also.
When he's talking about lifting his son up to pick the apple and asked "and do you what I was thinking?", I was sure he was gonna say "I could make them into cider". Maybe I'm more of a recovering alcoholic than Dave is 🤔
I was expecting more of the Clifton Suspension Quiz... But this quite literally made me saaaaaaaad! Boo hoo etc... anyway enough of all this, let's Go West!
I'm a lame American and while I have heard of Alan Partridge I had never actually seen it before and holy shit for whatever reason his incredulity about the guy changing his name from Tom Barrington to Dave Clifton and the accompanying facial expressions has me laughing my ass off as I watch that bit over and over again.
"Ha ha, no Tony Hadley actually from Spandau Ballet. Yeah we both do Archery, I'm a level 2. hoping to get my level 3 this weekend. "How do you..... can I....?"
David Dickinson‘s got a lot to answer for I too was addicted to David Dickinson but with help from my family and therapy I managed to kick the habit of bargain Hunt
Dave may have been a better DJ ..... better voice ... more friendly .... more upbeat ..... better knowledge of music ..... BUT HE STOLE THE BREAKFAST SHOW OF ALAN !!!!! ... ha ha
Forget all the pretenders,this is a comedy masterclass and it will literally (in it's literal sense,for once) make you laugh and cry at the same time: "I turned up the volume,to drown him out with David Dickinson-oh my god"
"Dave, I used to think you were a right berk....but now I realise that's only half the story" LOL
Berk is short for Berkshire Hunt
Good for Dave. I mean Tom.
So funny 😆👏👏👏👏
"Cuddles not Ruddles"
This is sublime. One of the best Partridge moments ever.
So ruddy bloody brave
I love brave people
God that's good
"Ruddy hell..."
I love the incredulity in Alan's voice as he says 'You changed your name to Dave Clifton?'
In a former life Dave 'Premium Lager' Clifton resided on Stella Street.
Dave Clifton sounds like every local DJ!! QUALITY!! 🤣🤣
You mean "Qualidy".
@@markyishere1 Interesting how you substitute T's for D's. You danlendless shid!
@@stephenhall2980 And if rumours are to be believed, you're back on the boddle
“Hugs not drugs”
“Cuddles not Ruddles”
🤣🤣🤣🤣
We can't always understand what others are going through, but we can at least bring the custard.
Top Internet post of the day!
Spat my tea out. Very good
😂😂😋
CUSTARD IS OK
I used to think you were a right berk, but I realise now that's only half the story...
Such a great line!
"Dave...what was the worst thing you did? God help us."
Proceeds to declining to hear about the worst thing Dave did. 🤣
Thank you Dave Clifton you inspired me to put down the premium lager and to start drinking cider instead I reach for those apples every day thank you again for your uplifting story
😅🤣😂
Alan Partridge has NEVER missed a time check. Beautiful.
That's professialism for you 🙂

Yeah, he's a bit eccentric, and more than a little bitter. But Alan's not altogether a bad guy.
You know he isn’t real right?
@@lewidharvey8430 how dare you, take that back!
@@lewidharvey8430 what?
I disagree - this is total schadenfreude
"My glass is always half-full."
"Wasn't that the problem?"
Writing like this makes British humour on a different level to anything else.
So much in so little!

Good to see they've moved on from the worth of boast worlds.
3:35 Could be wrong but i'm sure Alan broke Dave then- just for a split second, when Alan said the word apples. That must have been hard lol
I love when you see a slight smile. I think you’re right. I’ve also noticed he almost lost it when he did the airbag scene in series two of I’m Alan Partridge 😂
Cuddles not Ruddles….
what are ruddles?
@@FoodforThought12345678dsds it’s a beer. Brewery name.
Wow, never knew Dave Clifton's real name was Tom Barrington. Brilliant sketch, and the comedy timing between Alan and Dave was first class.
it is actually his real name. I think they just never mentioned it. Glad they said.
@@lukef3559 Yeah. Yeah.
@@JonSmith-cx7gr they're so good together
Premier Class.
I really hope Dave's not back on the boddle.
It's a shame they can never go back to their old dynamic now, since their rivalry was so funny, but this scene is so good, it's almost worth it.

He totally pulls off being Dave Clifton after all this time, very cool
Hats off to Phil Cornwall,never misses a beat.
Superb.
Nor Tom Barrington.
Dave Clifton is a true hero, he inspired me to put down the premium larger and start reaching for the apples. what a legend
Cider ?
You mean Tom Barrington
Tim Keys confused face towards the end is incredible 🤣
'Together we'll bake an apple pie and feed it to his son' 😂
🤣🤣🤣
You can feed apple pies to swans.
How on earth can he go from this, to doing his new crap stuff baffles me.
Do you know what I did? I turned up the volume to drown him out with David Dickinson.
Love how Alan gets what he wants, Clifton being tearful and remorseful..
God I actually had tears welling up in my eyes when Partridge got emotional... That was unexpectedly sweet and moving... and wonderfully daft.
The chapter of "I, Partridge" where Dave Clifton sabotages Alans "Mid Morning Matters Mid-Air" bouncy castle stunt is brilliant.
The warmth and nuance in the writing here is impeccable, this is the sort of closure we needed for the more 'throwaway' characters of the earlier series and it's awesome to see this kind of dedication to the maturity of Alan and everyone in his universe.
The Partriverse.
I'd like to see

Steve could continue doing Partridge spin offs for years. Theirs so much he could do with him. Tim Key is also fantastic
The audio book 'From the Oasthouse' is some of the very best Partridge there is.
As is Phil Cornwall. An underrated comedy legend.
@@adamcharlesdavies Even the intro music makes me laugh…the bloody intro!
I wish there was more of Dave vs Alan. It was gold.
"And you know what else Dave".. "What?".. "I'm bringing the custard!" 😄😄🤦♂️🤦♂️
how close to Michael Caine did that come?
A man they can both imitate well
When he's talking about lifting his son up to pick the apple and asked "and do you what I was thinking?", I was sure he was gonna say "I could make them into cider". Maybe I'm more of a recovering alcoholic than Dave is 🤔
Same, hah!
2:55 It looks like Simon is thinking about making some cheap joke about picking apples for cider but decides to bite his tongue.
MMM is pure partridge, I could watch/listen to him DJ'ing for years
I was expecting more of the Clifton Suspension Quiz... But this quite literally made me saaaaaaaad!
Boo hoo etc... anyway enough of all this, let's Go West!
That was quite possibly the greatest Alan Partridge clip I’ve ever seen. Ruddy bloody marvellous!
It's not Bravo Two Zero. Which gets better with every read.
I'm a lame American and while I have heard of Alan Partridge I had never actually seen it before and holy shit for whatever reason his incredulity about the guy changing his name from Tom Barrington to Dave Clifton and the accompanying facial expressions has me laughing my ass off as I watch that bit over and over again.
"You've changed your name to Dave Clifton" Holds a lot of weight if you're from York!!
I think you'll find that "picking apples" is a euphemism for necking scrumpy. Knowing you
I'm spending the Bank Holiday with a good friend of mine...
Uh oh!! Johnny walker or Jack daniels... Glen morangie!! 😕😕😂
"Ha ha, no Tony Hadley actually from Spandau Ballet. Yeah we both do Archery, I'm a level 2. hoping to get my level 3 this weekend.
"How do you..... can I....?"
Arise Sir Dave Clifton of Radioshire
"ooohh you mean the tramps "...
😂😂😂
Two comedy pro's. A masterclass.
One can only imagine what Dave Clifton did with 'the tramps'.... Brilliant clip, absolutely genius!!!
Bringing them off in the street, dreadful business
Cone you take it a rung lower.
Haven’t seen this before. I was crying in my custard
David Dickinson‘s got a lot to answer for I too was addicted to David Dickinson but with help from my family and therapy I managed to kick the habit of bargain Hunt
Hahaha! I'll bring the custard
Can you please post FULL Episodes of this ❤ I can't find any other than the same few repeats over and over again
He's obviously still on the boddle
Dave may have been a better DJ ..... better voice ... more friendly .... more upbeat ..... better knowledge of music ..... BUT HE STOLE THE BREAKFAST SHOW OF ALAN !!!!! ... ha ha
“ you changed your name to dave Clifton “ 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂brilliant
was anticipating a miss timed inappropriate cider gag by side kick simon all the way through....
Finally this has been uploaded 🙏
Lovely stuff.
How do you get through a bit like this ?! 😂😂Those are hard core comedy chops right there.
Forget all the pretenders,this is a comedy masterclass and it will literally (in it's literal sense,for once) make you laugh and cry at the same time: "I turned up the volume,to drown him out with David Dickinson-oh my god"
"I can hear them but I can't see them!"
Not my words, but the words of Shakin’ Stephens. Lovely stuff.
I was really expecting Simon to chime in and say “you weren’t making cider with those apples” or something.
The friction between Alan and Dave Clifton is always magic ...Alans face 😂
Hugs not drugs - life's motto
Cuddles not Ruddles
@@simonfoster4350
Yep one of key milestones of life
"Hugs not drugs." - "Cuddles not Ruddles."
What's wrong Alan? 'Cone' you take a joke?!😃😃😃
Partridge hits new heights. Higher even than an apple tree. On a man's shoulders. Brilliant.
Classic Partridge, lovely stuff.
Sometimes these out of context without the episodes are just what the funny bone needs
The time is coming up to 12.49 😂😂😂
"you don't sound sad... BE SAD" hahaha
How did they not burst out laughing I don't know..
Dave looks like he's trying not to laugh at the end
My glass is always half full.
Wasn't that the problem
Outstanding.
Beautiful.
"Wasn't that the problem" hahaha
Come on Alan, cone you take a joke?!
What did Dave do to the tramps?
Cuddles not Ruddles 😂😂
Cuddles not Ruddles! 😆
Tom Barrington!
Nuance, pathos, Depth, complexity and textbook comedy timing, the accordionist ladies and gents.
"hugs not drugs!"
No more premium lager from Dec 15th WHO and SAGE advice to UK. Boris looks good by ignoring for 2 weeks, then crumbles. I’m bringing the custard
That's genius
Peak Partridge.
Lovely stuff
..i'm bringing the Custard- please spare us!😆So funny
Foster's took down this ACE series ages ago. Could you give us all a big xmas treat and upload them all to youtube pretty please?
Phil Cornwell is awesome, who remembers Gilbert? Best game show on telly. Giz The Dosh.
Be sad!
When it got onto apples I was really expecting sidekick Simon to make a comment about cider
I didn't think Steve could get better, but he does all the time. Incredible stuff!
