I remember watching when he did the Sophie Ellis Bextor one, her expression when he said it was hilarious.

Some of these are too Partridge to be true surely!?
Love the Birmingham Six one. Textbook.

These seriously can't be real. Either way I have laughed out loud all the way through that list. Brilliant.

I have always loved watching him interview people. Terrible but brilliant to watch him blag his way through interviews.

Number 38 should be in the top 5. It's stunning. COMPLETE Partridge as well.

This is amazing! I love it when he interviewed John Lydon and asked something like 'if you could throws fishing rod through the corridors of time and reel yourself in, you'd throttle you, wouldn't you?'. It's such an obvious question but asked in the most bizarre way possible, and 'you'd throttle you wouldn't you' is a truly genius sentence!

I like the John Fashanu one, it's an almost-perfect follow-up.

To be fair and slightly OT, there was a time when you would have, but amazing what a few years with Dick Madeley can do to your looks
