Alan Partridge named Britain's greatest comedy character

I guess I should be surprised, this is the same country that thinks Miranda and Mrs. Brown’s Boys are ingenious.

British humour is awful, mostly.

I fucking love Alan Partridge. The two series about his life as a DJ were genius. The more recent ones-- Mid Morning Matters and the other one-- are not so great.

No-one believes Mrs Brown's Boys and Miranda are ingenious, OP.

Don't hate on Miranda. She's funny.

I just purchased his audibook "From the Oasthouse" - a real twofer as the guy's both a prat and a twat!

The first series, with his chat show "Knowing Me, Knowing You", is brilliant.

OP you should or shouldn't be surprised?

I have his series sold here in the States under the titles "Nomad" and "I, Partridge".
