| 0:00.0 | Hi there, it's Tom Dark, not Stab, here. Just popping up with a little end of year bonus for you. |
| 0:06.1 | We thought it would be a good time to revisit the interviews we've had with other Partridge cast members over the years, |
| 0:11.3 | especially if you've only just discovered us because of from the Oast House or from this year's chats with Timke and Susanna Fielding. |
| 0:18.2 | No need to take up any more of your time with this intro to the intro really, |
| 0:21.6 | so I'll hand you over now to Adam of the past as we journey back to Monkey Tennis from December |
| 0:26.8 | 2017. Over to you, Adam. Hello there, treasured and beloved Monkey Tennis listener. It's Adam |
| 0:34.0 | from Monkey Tennis here, just to say that we're coming to the end of our episodes for 2017, but I think we might have saved the best for last. |
| 0:42.1 | Thank you so much if you've been listening throughout what's been our longest ever series as we tackled I Partridge, a little bit of mid-morning matters and knowing me, knowing you'll. |
| 0:50.7 | But this is the big one. |
| 0:51.9 | We finally got a member of the cast to come and join us live on stage. |
| 0:55.9 | And whilst we've heard from several people involved in the making of I'm Alan Partridge and all |
| 1:00.4 | the Alan Partridge projects, it's the first time we've had one come and join us. So a huge thank |
| 1:05.2 | you to Mr Simon Greenall, who came along to the Prince Charles Cinema in front of a live audience |
| 1:09.6 | and gamely answered all the |
| 1:11.7 | questions we flung at him about Alan. We also learned a lot about Admiral Nelson, which you'll hear |
| 1:16.4 | shortly. Just so that makes a bit more sense. There was obviously some chat in the Knowing Me, |
| 1:21.6 | knowing Yule section about various historical figures and their disfigurements, which Simon picked up as he came on stage. So that's about it. Thank you so much.
