New seven part series on the BBC, from Baby Cow Productions
Meet Tommy Saxondale, an ex-roadie with anger management issues and a pest control business...

Survivor of a hostile divorce, Tommy now lives with his girlfriend Magz, proprietress of the anarchic T-shirt shop Smash the System. Tommy regards himself as a maverick and a free-thinker and takes every opportunity to impart his wisdom to his young assistant Raymond. And as well as Pharaoh ants, mice and occasionally moths, Tommy has to battle with snowboarders, pigeon-loving activists... and people who talk about property prices.

First three episodes are on YouTube
this will be great.. love Steve Coogan
It is good
Different style of character for Coogan - works well for the most part, and has some cracking one-liners too.
Episode 4 of 7 tonight...
Looks like it {and The Mighty Boosh} may soon be remade for a US audience too!
Mighty Boosh remade?!?!
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH AMERICA? Fuck, can't they enjoy something that isn't created within their country?

torrents for the first 3. All really fast too! I've got from 250 to 600kbps on em.
I watched part of it and I thought it sucked.. vaguely amusing lines but nothing that cracked a real laugh out of me..
I love I'm Alan Partridge though..
fuckpants! I just downloaded all 3 episodes in about 7 minutes. Powerspeed!
oh man, more coogan is what i need right now.
how does one use you tube or download things of the internet ?
ooo, might have to get this.
anon, how do i do this ? what is you tube ?
youtubes a site where you can watch videos, just click on the link he provided, and click on the episode, let it load and watch.
theres spose to be ways to save youtube streams, but i havn't played with it.
*sigh*
i love stevie...
gonna watch these 2nite
James The Book Group / I'm Alan Partridge! Lance is the guest star of Episode 4....
THIS IS EXCELLENT! I don't know what people expected when they don't get out loud laughs! Genius awkwardness from the master himself! And a gifted touch for using the most horrible, everyday non jokes. This show could end up excellent!
Thanks for the heads up m&n!
still downloading.
watches torrent
run torrent run!
The first episode was a bit weak, the second was good and the third was even better. It's not up to Alan Partridge levels of excellence, but it's definitely worth watching.
This was the fastest torrent i've ever downloaded I think. 7 minutes for all 3 eps, 700meg. Ahh the memories...
But yeah, I think for music fans and people who have been in contact with people like that, his accuracy rings true.
It 'could' reach Partridge power, but either way, it's really good!

He could actually kinda sing.
HE'S PERFECT.
how cute is this exchange above from 2 years ago:
didn't enjoy seeing him at all, it was like watching something from a bad theatre restaurant. hopefully it won't spoil the experience of watching his movies.
he used *a lot * of his old material... a mortgage tour
good but not great last night in sydney
i think tony ferrino got the biggest laugh from me - about he and his first wife wanting different things from life - he wanted to travel the world & experience different cultures first-hand - while she wanted to be a fat pig
enjoyed the encore song an awful lot, and the little bit of old-school luvvie acting beforehand was perfect and maybe my favourite bit of the night
HAPPY STEVE COOGAN DAY! (we're seeing him tonight!)
Yay!
Us too! Running times for tonight are later than last night.
27th

Cant believe that Alan Partridge hangs out at Coffs Harbour Cricket Club with Don Burke...
yeah i thought that was one of the highlights of the show.
DAN! DAN! DAN!..... DAN! DAN!
Went again last night (Melbs). Damn it's a good show.
Oh, and for Melbourne folk: 2 for 1 tickets to the final Forum show tonight. $50 for two tix.
this looks utterly horrible...
sorry, meant to add the film description:
i'd rather lick piss off nettles.
Have been watching Saxondale on ABC iView and thoroughly enjoying the show. They have all of season 1 available to watch online.
Have been watching Marion & Jeff. It's killing me... so good.
I like this show.
His new film 'The Trip' is good too.
two good Coogan Vs Brydon style movies are
Cruise of the Gods
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0346806/
and
Tristram Shandy, a cock & bull story
