You ae an extraordinary man, Mr Partridge! - By: , 20 Jan 2004 
So speaks one of his guests on this 3 hour compilation of shows from his radion series. This is arguably better than the subsequent TV series, & great value for money - buy it! Stand outs have to be the ex member of the House of Lords (a drunken offensive fool, who dies live on air), the child genius WHOM Alan assaults, & the loss of his & his wife's car due to ill-educated attempts at betting. Ah Ha!
BUY THIS IMMEDIATELY - By: D. J. Higgins, 05 Sep 2002 
I first heard this series on a Saturday morning in 1993 when I switched on the radio (Radio 4). At first I thought it was a real chat show until after a short while my sides were splitting. I got my girlfriend to listen to the next episode as it was so unmissable. She agreed it was fantastic.
This is 'THE' definitive Alan Partridge show.
Quotes from the show just stick in your brain & then wander back from time to time to bring a smile to your face or a surpressed chuckle. I bought the cassette tapes a while ago & now I'm buying this box set because this is just such good quality comedy. I've listened to the tapes over & over & over & now they're warn out. They just get funnier after each listening because of alll the little bits you missed.
If you thought the KMKYWAP chat show series wasn't quite firing on alll cylinders, listen to this to understand how perfect the format is on radio.
Listen out for the interviews that are totallly unforgettable Partridge: The Duchess of Stranraer, Simon Fisher, Janey Katz, Shirley Dee, Steve Thomson, Conrad Knight, Bernie Rosen & of course Alan's (now ex) nemesis the evil Tony Hayers.
I swear you will NOT believe how hilarious this is.
If you haven't got this you're missing out big time......and to be honest in my book that makes you a "blond bastard.......from the future" & on that bombshell A-Haaaaaaa
Funny words don`t describe how funny this is! - By: , 02 Jan 2001 
These six shows from Knowing Me Knowing You the radio series, are hillarious. This is pre-Alan. If you follow Alan Partridge`s way through life, you are missing some of the first broadcastings he ever did & these are possibly funnier than any other stuff he has done. Pop in the CD`s, sit back & listen to the antics of a child hitter, a book critic, a cocaine taker, a gambler....the things Alan gets up to!
Knowing Me Buying You - By: john@joyce.net, 23 Jul 2000 
Classic. Steve Coogan rocked the radio world with Alan Partridge only to do it again on TV. This is Alan in his infancy & well worth paying out for... AHA!
If you like Alan and Chris... - By: edward_whittle@hotmail.com, 13 Mar 2000 
Then you will be amazed at how much better this is than any of the TV stuff. I used to listen to this on Radio 4 & Radio 1, when Morris had his classic 'on the hour' show, which aired at 8-9 PM every wednesday night. Unfortunately, other than a few recordings a friend made this classic is lost to the world. Not that that reallly matters. So this stuff by coogan & Marber et al is left from the original radio show on Radio 4 (I think) & reallly is better than the TV. Alot of the content from the shows, like Smelly alan fartridge' comes from the radio. But because it was presumably more ad lib on the raido it has an edge over the TV.
I would buy it if I were you.
