Episode 1:
First Guest: Show-jumper Sue Lewis
Ms. Lewis displays a complete lack of star quality as Alan Struggles to employ
his professional skill to force a single interesting sentence from her-
anecdotes simply aren't here forte. Her failure to entertain is capped when she
refuses to perform a showjumping exercise in the studio, despite Alan offering
to have sponges fitted to the horse's hooves to help prevent serious injury.
Second Guest: TV Presenter Keith Hunt
Charismatic entertainer Keith Hunt has recently been drafted-in to present
the new slapstick 'This Is Your Life' and his star quality is confirmed when he
has Alan's audience answering his catchphrase 'Am I right?' with 'You're not
wrong' the moment he enters the studio. However, his private life isn't so
successful, when he forgets the birthday of his son from a failed marriage, and
Alan is forced to present the youngster with an Alan Partridge tie and
blazer-badge combination pack, and a holiday to America for the lad and his
mother.
Third Guest: Shona Mc Gough and her band
At first glance it seemed that Ms. Mc Gough's song was perfect for the
conservative views of Alan and his show, but when the song descended into a
rampaging dirge about murder, Alan was appalled. The band then hijacked the show
with unruly behaviour, but Aln, ever the consumate professional, managed to hold
the show together. Guide Copyright Gary Mc Keown
Fourth Guest: Roger Moore, Hollywood Actor
Unfortunately Roger couldn't make it to the studio, but Alan managed to make
brief contact with him via mobile telephone, the content of which was basically
'Roger? Roger? ROGER?!?!?!?!?!?!' The BBC laid-on a full James Bond themed
section of the studio, but the previous guests acted in an unbecoming fashion
for people in the presence of the great Alan Partridge, and had to be pulled
back into line.
House Band: Glenn Ponder and Chalet
