    Advantages Advantages Very, very fuuny. A must for all Alan fans

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not enough is made of the audiobook version

    Its hard to not start a review of an Alan Partridge product without heading it up with a quote. I resisted 'Ah ha!'. AHA! I Gave in. Something else I couldn't resist? Seeing Steve Coogan as Alan Partidge perform one of two rare live performances, one in London and the other - the one I wen't to in Norwich. I couldn't resist to the point I waited in the queue with the other few hundred people for a 4 hours. My ever caring girlfriend waited with me, and I would have been endlessly apologizing after convincing her, if I wasn't crazy excited. As soon as I heard this book was coming out I got ... more

    Advantages Advantages It's all Alan!!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None I can see

    As a BIG fan of Alan Partridge I was really looking forward to getting hold of this book and reading about the great man's life. I have many of his DVD's and think that series 1 of I'm Alan Partridge is absolute genius, this meant that the book had a great deal to live up to.....was I to be disappointed or not?As Alan's autobiography it starts with his birth, well where else would it start...It then traces Alan's early unhappy childhood, through Uni and girls onto his breakthough to Radio Norfolk, his brief (his own words) stint on the BBC and then his descent into Toblerone addiction and ... more

    Advantages Advantages One of the funniest things I have read for a long time

    Disadvantages Disadvantages I want more!

    As a big fan of Steve Coogan's work in general and Alan Partridge in particular, I had very high expectations for this book and I'm delighted to say it did not disappoint. I was intrigued as to how an autobiography by a fictional character would work. It could easily have been a hasty rehashing of old scripts but with Armando Iannucci and Steve Coogan at the helm, I knew to expect better than that. The book covers the life of Alan Partridge from birth - a delightfully cringe-worthy description that is more befitting the Second Coming than the entrance into the world of a mediocre talk show ... more
