In a wonderful incidence of historical synchronicity, Steve Coogan (the British comedian best known for his character Alan Partridge, a pathetic, ultra-middle-class TV personality) and Roger Moore (Partridge’s stylistic idol, and his favourite Bond by far) were born on the same day – Coogan in 1965, Moore in 1927.
There’s a lot that could be said about both Coogan and Moore, but how could anyone do it better than this clip, viewable after the jump.
(Be warned, there is a naughty word or two in the clip):
Naughty? The Geordie words?
I didn’t realize the word c*ck was only used in the vicinity of Newcastle.
Regardless, I (your ‘umble web content editor) inserted the warning in case people were turn up the volume at work.
Also, I know some people are offended by the mere mention of the surname of the 43rd US president.
was a reference to the character, Michael (heard in the clip from Alan Partridge) as he is referred to on the show…
