I was hoping someone would end my quote but you're ahead of me!
The Bureau was brilliant! The one where they toured it on the back of a lorry

Definitely Partridge, though Gareth Cheeseman (?) was also pretty special. The cock with the Ford Probe. -

When I saw Coogan live TF was by far the best character - and I'd hated him till then. -

Registered 18 years agoCan't believe this is even being considered. Nothing comes close to Partridge.
As for the whole quoteiness thing, I wonder if it's because so many of us grew up with him? Not sure someone coming to it cold would have the same appeal -

On the live video I have, he sings a song called Ordinary Girl to a girl from the audience. It is funny I must say. -

I've got the video! He takes her off stage and engages in 'sex' before throwing a false leg on stage. Class stuff. -

Registered 15 years agoSaxondale is rather nice. It's not so bluntly embarassing as Partridge. He's got a set of morals but clearly clumsly in his execution of them. There's more detail to Tommy too. I hope he does a third series. -
Partridge/Saxondale -
Partridge is my favourite but Gareth Cheesman was great. My favourite bit was where he closed a sale, rubbed his hands and said "A wank, I think"
uLOL (unfortunate laugh out loud) in front of parents
He should resurrect Cheesman, he only did one episode with him (I think?). -
