Lovely recommendation, thanks. I’ve always been a big admirer of his work, and share quite a few things with him — I mean his background and sensibilities. Not, alas, his talent.

Would that advice include not standing up in the middle of a Hove restaurant and throwing a tantrum for someone taking a photo of their 70 year old mum on her birthday?Young Again - 5. Steve Coogan - BBC Sounds

Actually, yes. He talks about his younger days, and what he’d do differently.
And he had such a terrible time from phone hacking, the paparazzi, and the tabloids, I suspect he developed quite a paranoia about people taking pictures around him.

Love his work, The Trip(s) especially but a few moments I've spent in his company off camera certainly opened my eyes.
A great listen. I empathize with his pomposity (wanting to do work that's important), the class chip on shoulder (although I lost mine by living overseas when quite young) and share a lot of his background. The loathing of bullies.... yes I am enjoying this.
Kirsty, however, is pure filth. That vocal tone. That laugh. OMG.

On the other hand, he does do a good Michael Caine impression.
No. But I saw kids being bullied and it sickened me.
It would appear, Not everyone knows that.

Saw this a couple of weeks ago. I'm a Coogan fan but I thought that it was clever, but a bit pleased with itself.
People around me wetting themselves, so clearly some folks liked it.

He’s a rare talent to be sure - takes the piss out of himself very well too

Too many accounts of him being an unsavoury arrogant prick in 'real life' unfortunately. That said, Cooghan's Run was worth a butcher's, Partridge less so imho

Hands off the great man Partridge. For me at least, one of the greatest comic characters ever invented.
