If anyone is wondering, the warning sound is indication that Alan needs to press the unlock button on the key fob to disable the vehicles immobiliser-A common feature of the Rover 200, 400, 800, and 100, mini metro during the 90s

Felicity Montague who plays Lynn is every bit the comic genius of Steve Coogan. Brilliantly funny, how she doesn't laugh I'll never know.

partridge without laughter track is so much better

Watching this clip is rather bittersweet. This conversation captures every conversation my parents would have back in the 80s when we'd go for a family day out.

They could make a whole series of just Alan and Lynn talking in the car and I would watch it and love it.

Lynn is literally petrified to answer any question as she knows every time he'll ridicule her.

This is me after 5 months of being furloughed.

He dragged Lynn from home in a taxi to ask her what the noise was. 😆

In essence, this is every marriage.

Alan Partridge is BREXIT man isn't he?

The funniest Partridge clip, not seen this for years...

The car horn at

This makes me appreciate what great actors they both are. How they keep it together for 12 minutes staight I will never know! :-D

The "Inticators"...."Inticators????" INDICATORS. You can tell that was ad-libbed and it played perfectly to Alan's car obsession, he was never going to let that go.

I love how they actually sat there and played out the whole thing on camera, for 12 minutes, even knowing that %90 of it would never be used, seeing as these episodes were only like 28 minutes long 🤣🤣 Fucking genius

These two were so well matched lol.

After 20 years I now understand why Partridge buys those 12 bottles of windscreen washer fluid from the mini-mart.

the split second where the camera switches to show alan's awful parking after his handbrake rant is subtley hilarious

I'm a huge Alan Partridge fan and this is the first time I've seen these Unused Alans. This improvisation has me in stitches. Alan talking about keeping the glove box open drains the battery then Lynn goes on about sweeties, I had no idea what she was talking about then Alan says he is lost haha that could easily have been left in the show.

I'll be honest Lynn....I'm at a bit of a loose end. That's why I'm talking. Talllllkiiiing. Talllllking....
