just stumbled across this on BBC2, i think it started tonight. I only joined half way through, but it was brilliant, it even had that woman from would like to meet on it. :love:
 




It's a blatant rip-off of Alan Partridge (and by Coogan's production company too) but, what the hell, Rob Brydon is excellent and it's well funny.

Will rely a lot though on the main guests being good sports, and they don't come better than the bonkers Richard Madeley, so it will be interesting to see if Brydon can keep this standard up in the next few weeks.

I thought it was very funny. Rob Brydon is class. Sure it uses a similar basis to Partridge but what the hell, if it ain't broke...
 




Hilarious. It isn't a 'blatant rip-off' of Alan Partridge, it is a comedy from the same stable and thus with the same humour behind it.

I must say I was impressed with Richard & Judy - they came across as very professional and game for a laugh.

I thought it was excellent.

He has a very subtle way of making people feel embarrassed about themselves. Completely different to Partridge.

Good old BBC.

really enjoyed it

Keith is such a likeable character. He has a vulnerability that will make his guests open up to him. He is very different from Alan Partridge, who though funny, you would have wanted to smack in the face if you met him.
