    o Arm wrestling with Chas n' Dave

    o Youth hostelling with Chris Eubank

    Ten years ago, I spent months staying at the Watford Hilton for work. No joke.

    Effectively I lived in the Linton Travel Tavern.

    It was grand. Not like a troll living in a lay-by.

    One night, I had to call reception to make porn come on my telly

    Alan: It's nearly 7 o'clock, this is Dave Clifton.

    Dave: Yes, indeed! Good morning, it's Dave Clifton! And there goes Alan Partridge..."Cone" but not forgotten!

    Alan: *a bit annoyed but laughing*

    Dave: You must've seen a film like, "Cone"an The Barbarian.

    Alan: Yeah, good one.

    Dave: Then watch a bit of TV like, "Cone" dancing.

    Alan: Yeah, not so good but... fine.

    Dave: Come on Alan, whats the matter with you? "Cone" you take a joke?

    Alan: Oh, F**K OFF!

    Dave: I am speechless! Dave Clifton is actually speechless! I don't believe you just said...

    Alan: You don't sound it! I wish you were!

    Dave: I mean, I really don't know what to say! I find it really difficult to find the words...

    Alan: Try saying nothing!

    Dave: You and I both know that dead air is a crime, and I think it's terrible that you have to fill it with swearing on your show!

    Alan: Fortunately Dave, you are bang wrong! It's 1 minute past 7, it's your show, you're responsible for the output. I am technically a guest and you failed to control me...READ THE SMALL PRINT ON YOUR CONETRACT.

    Enough to make you hit the boddle.

    When he is asking that red head woman on a date and says "I know a cracking owl sanctuary?"

    There's a scene, i cant find it but Alan is staying at the hotel and he looks out the window and sees michael. He "shoots" Michael with an imaginary gun sort of like a nod of appreciation :)

    Alan: Well done, Lynn. Now, before we get up, I’m just going to warn you...I have popped out again. It’s in no way connected with our proximity, so just don’t turn round.

    [Alan untangles himself from the phone and adjusts his crotch.]

    Alan: Right, the boys are back in the barracks! [Singing] Take a pinch of white man…

    Alan: I'm not driving a Mini-Metro.
    Lynn: No, no, no, it's different. It's called a Rover Metro now.
    Alan: They've rebadged it, you fool!


    My first car was an Austin Metro

    Michael: I did hear about this corporal, right?

    [Alan lies down on the bed, listening to Michael’s story, fascinated.]

    Michael: And he’s in the third battalion this lad, but he’s right mean, OK? And he goes out in Bangkok, right? And all the prostitutes is comin’ up and saying “How much?” and he’s going “Oh I’m not paying that”, right? And then this beautiful lassie comes up –

    [While Michael tells his story, Lynn knocks on the door.]

    Michael: – she’s gorgeous, man. And she’s half the price of the others. And they’re getting down to it –

    [Lynn enters the room]

    Michael: – he puts his hand up her skirt, gets a hold of the old meat and two veg, right? Thinks, hang on, I’ve paid my money, I’m going to have something, so he flips him over, and he fu-

    [Michael has just noticed Lynn, standing in the corner of the room.]

    Michael: And funnily enough, it lands on its wheels, and it starts first time and they just drive away.

    Alan: Strangest story I’ve ever heard. [Gets up] Oh, hello. Lynn. Oh! I see what you were… ah, right, yes. Hello, Michael was just telling me an army story about a friend of his who slept with… a landrover. Lonely nights in the desert.
