MONKEY TENNIS - The Alan Partridge Fan Podcast

Combining the energy of a startup with a family atmosphere, we visit Alan in both office and garden this week, covering everything from celeb podcasts and concerning prostates to Spam and Stroders. Meanwhile, Tom Stabb attempts to get us from a Norwich breakfast to a Rome lunch and on to Dubai for cocktails. Plus: Nick's Tinned Meat and Fashion Corner.

We 'vehemently deny' that we find ourselves more aligned with Alan than ever, as we discuss our growing interest in WW2, being a podcast that may have reached its natural listener ceiling, and tapping the “Wallace Well.” PLUS: Speeding! Black Ops rambles! A humbag full of Mistrels! Yeah. Goooood podcast.

We're rerunning the fun and turning the clock back 10 years this week, as we revisit the first ever episode of Monkey Tennis, in which we tackle I'm Alan Partridge Series 1, Episode 1... Worth the entry fee alone for a new intro from 2026's very own Tom Stabb. Come for the disappointing audio quality, stay for the lack of in-depth research. Needless to say things did get better.

LIVE SHOW: We return to the Prince Charles Cinema on Thursday 19 November.

Alan's up a hill and we're down a rabbit hole this week as we play Top Tor or No Score and Batman: Returns. Infidelity, germaphobes and Peartree Cartography also come under the spotlight, and we ask: Is Jamie Demetriou wasted? How easy is shepherding? And how often have you just happened upon a choir in a cave?

We enter our mind palaces as we conclude our Big Beacon coverage, debating whether it's Alan's 'Parklife' or his 'Be Here Now'. Also covered: Bread's theme tune, Seldom's patriotism and Clarkson's farm. Plus, Lynn gets the full name treatment, we play 'Sequels in Sequence' and someone we won't name gets a Paddy Mc-kicking.

Listen, Love! We deep dive on Seldom and Jennie this week, while also giving Happy Ferguson a nibble. Plus: Oasthouse origins, Avatar unravelled, and we play a quiz you can't (every which way but) lose.

Jennie-bashing and speculation on Coogan's PR policy loom large this week. Speaking from personal experience, we also cover scuppered book deals, the faff involved in entering Broadcasting House, and our own 'faecal Dresden'. And that's before we lose it over A Turkey's Journey. And then Greg Dyke's texts. And then Alan's DIY skills. Could listening make this the Greatest Day of your life?

Sh*thousery meets lighthousery this week as we talk passive aggressive emails, Weinstein's eggs, and do deep dives on scampi fries. We ask 'How well has Partridge aged?' and 'Is Alan's "cancer' the worst thing he's ever done?'. We hope the episode makes you weak at the knees (and not leak at the wees).

ITV gets kicked, Chiles gets evaluated and 'chav' gets revisited this week. We also tread carefully through Alan's big sex scene and peek into Lynn's therapy sessions, before Keys and Gray enter the fray. Will it be chips?
