I'm Alan Partridge (1997)
1 plot hole in The Talented Mr. Alan
Starring: Steve Coogan, Felicity Montagu, Phil Cornwell, Simon Greenall
Genres: Comedy
Visible crew/equipment: When the house salesman say he loves Alan's show, a camera can be seen on the right side of the screen. (00:16:00)
Alan Partridge: You work in a petrol station Michael. It's not the Gulf War. Which ironically is like a large petrol station.
Trivia: Given that the BBC are very much against product placement in their shows, its shocking the amount of placement that goes on in Alan Partridge. Its really in your face stuff. Ginsters pasties, BP petrol, Lexus cars, Flavia coffee machines, Directors bitter, Twix and Yorkie bars. In every episode the above are mentioned on numerous occastions. Not that I give a hoot about product placement myself, but am so surprised at how blatently obvious it is and yet the BBC have always been so against it.
Question: Who played the man who drew the penis on Alan's back when he was younger?
Chosen answer: He was played by Ian Puleston-Davies. He is best known for his role as Owen Armstrong in the ITV soap opera Coronation Street.
