There had been other news spoofs over the years Two Ronnies - The Goons et al But nothing had ever been fully imagined and created in such long form Still hasn’t dated and I’m writing this in 2021 And yes - Genius with a capital G
Hmm. It's almost as if they've edited the traditional 5-second pips into a new format in order to subvert the broadcasting norm for comedic effect. Why on Earth would uncle Chris and his chums DO such a terrible thing. Bastards.
@@RexVergstrong Yeah, lol, I saw that episode and felt like a bit of an idiot. The Day Today seems to take place in a separate universe to other Alan Partridge stuff because that’s very grounded in reality whereas The Day Today is outright magic realism.
Fucking thank you, I was going mad trying to think where I’d heard that before. It’s nice to think the BBC has been using this same bit of stock music for thirty years

Two Ronnies - The Goons et al

Mary, Joseph and the news.
Chris is a brilliant impressionist aswell, thats a cracking Ken Bruce.
It's such an over used phrase now but this is actual genius.
Chris Morris,legend
A leg end? So... you think he's a foot? ;-)
@@EleanorPeterson Lol.
Mary , Joseph and the NEWS
*Through the chicaaane.*
Amazing... ;-)
The Louise Botting song! and "oh, a bit of banging?"
It's hardly dated.....
Chris Morris some sort of genius
it has, tho
@@sillygoose635 I fail to see how other than literally being based on events at the time it was made.
Brilliant, thanks for posting these. I've really enjoyed S1.
Oh my that opening is quality.
Brilliant!
16:30 i love this whole bit
17:02 And this is why Christopher Morris liked Money Box so much so he did a closing theme music for them
Simply brilliant
First time I heard the Louise Botting song I nearly shat myself laughing!
20:20 😭😭
santa-cution :)
The year started in January..
17:43 Wow, 10 pips and Brian Reidhead announcing that's 8 o'clock.
Hmm. It's almost as if they've edited the traditional 5-second pips into a new format in order to subvert the broadcasting norm for comedic effect.

Bastards.
5:42 Woof
For Partridge fans, his appearance is at:
9:47
Just listen to it all Alan fans
I think if you’re going to have Oxygene as incidental music, you should at least cover the cycling.
Coogans version of Alan here sounds remarkably different. Sounds cockney 😂
I feel like this version of Partridge might as well be a different character
Aah, perspective joke, nice.
Happy newsyear
now you can go and have a shaaaave
In a previous episode, Chris said Alan’s wife had just died but he just mentioned something his wife had recently said to him.
She raised from the dead later in that episode.
@@RexVergstrong Yeah, lol, I saw that episode and felt like a bit of an idiot. The Day Today seems to take place in a separate universe to other Alan Partridge stuff because that’s very grounded in reality whereas The Day Today is outright magic realism.
@@tombarter3287 Well he said "earlier this year", not recently, so presumably it was before the death and resurrection anyway
Bloody go away.
With the comments lying about deep and crisp and even
11:27 Falkenhoof?!

@@nickchambers3935 btw the music itself is called Oxygene, from jean michel jarre.
@@nickchambers3935 its also the theme tune for Grand Theft Auto 4 bizarrely!
1:15
17:00, 19:00, 20:10
Well this is really very BAD behaviour INDEED!
