    The "H" pronunciation that Partridge gets annoyed about seems to have been missed. He gets really annoyed about Martin's supposed mispronunciation between "Aitch" and "Haitch". I liked that. He didn't do the obvious "three" and "tree" routine.

    The delivery of "HA HA" is just so funny.

    Coogan's Irish impersonation was almost perfect. It would have been flawless if he had said "telly" instead of "TV". But that's just nitpicking. It was brilliant.

    and also if he had been wearing a pioneer pin it would have added to the authenticity of the man's culchiness :)

    I enjoyed that too.
    An Aitch..... Did I put in a Haitch.

    I've got a feeling that the bold Martin never did get round to taking the pledge.

    Just watched it, what a fantastic episode, the CPR section had me in tears, and then the finale!

    Smaller pleasures - the expressions on Coogan's face when he's bantering on the sofa; his performance is so good.

    The tone of the show took a couple of episodes to land for me, but now its in full swing. It's a shame there's only two left, but this needs another season.

    Jennie is fecking stunning btw, how have we never seen that actress anywhere else?

    She seems to have done a fair bit of voice acting in games. She was Shani in Witcher 3.

    I was expecting a Partridge aside to it when he got to the 'sweet sixteen' finish, along the lines of (in best Alan accent) : "Sixteen. Thats underage. Still, must point out its a different jurisdiction. Its the West of Ireland too. Dont judge".

    "When you were barely legal"

    another great moment, the look of sadness on Alan's face after he set Sidekick Simon up with the production assistant
    "Look after him"

    Simon's the son he never had (except for his actual son Fernando obviously).

    Can't remember the context but he uses the line the something was on "Shakey ground" Standing under a "Thin ice" sign.

    That "HA-HA" gets me every time.

    It's "Ah-ha", there's no (h)aitch

    It's really quite brilliant. Alan is synonymous with that saying and to deviate from it's expression in a manner that takes the utter piss out of him is extremely clever.

    I love the way Martin shouts it at him. :D

    I watched it again last night and I love how you pick up things you didn't first time around. One thing I didn't notice on first viewing - was Coogan the voice of Rose, the 100 year old woman? I have a feeling he was.

    Some has mentioned here that he was. I cannot confirm it though.

    He'd probably try milk the bull loads of bits missed first time around

    Matt Lucus is the voice of the centenarian lady on the phone in.

    The tiny bits get me, when they are not overdone, like he had a little wobble on that tree stump he was perched on.

    I love the little nod of the head Martin and Alan exchange when James Bond is talking.

    Love it when Alan tries to get Martin to stop singing.

    Its a montage of guards dogs attacking people set to 'Hungry like the Wolf' by Duran Duran...its really great TV!!

    His face when he says its great TV!

    The effort at a hand clap as well, when they are singing!!:D

    “It’s not HAHA it’s AHA, and I haven’t said that for years.”

    “Yes you have. You said it last year trying to get into the Jonnie Walker tent at Silverstone.”

    If you are going to get angry, would you mind being angry down the center of the table please. Thank you.

    “There are 14,000 centenarians in Britain. That’s enough to fill the Birmingham NEC Arena. Although they’d presumably need a lot more toilets.”
