There are many types of ‘key' on this Earth. There are those that can be played to create beautiful melodies. There are those that grant us entry through locked doors or into someone's heart.

Clips performed by: Beth Chalmers, Emma Clarke, Rachel Atkins, Leah Marks and Toby Longworth. Warning: This episode contains strong language.

"Stop getting Alan wrong!" That could well be what you shout at a couple of points in this very special Empire Podcast appreciation of all things Alan Partridge, as Alan anoraks (Alanoraks?) Chris Hewitt, Nick de Semlyen and Pilot TV's Boyd Hilton get together for a solid 49 minutes of scorching Alan-based chat... and end up misquoting him on several occasions. The authorities have been informed. But that's not all. Chris also sits down for a chat with Neil and Rob Gibbons, the clever flucking clunts who have, for the last few years, been getting Alan right, as writers (and now directors) of Mid-Morning Matters, Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa, and his triumphant return to the BBC with This Time with Alan Partridge. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll pierce your foot on a spike -- not our words, Carol, but the words of... oh, no, those are our words, actually. Enjoy.

Famous Bobs, Billys and the Berks of the Week collide in this episode, as we come to you live from London and discuss Alan's anguish, sheep-shagging, caffeinated quandaries and 'Mental Monday'. We also celebrate Tim Key's face, summarise the series and ask: Janette - will she EVER press transfer? Come on Norfolk: Let's go home! // Get in touch: thepartridgepod@gmail.com | Facebook.com/thepartridgepod | Instagram: @monkeytennispod | Twitter: @thepartridgepod See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In this relaxingly regal episode, live from London, we cover on-air massage, Eamonn Holmes' lavish birthday and the Windows '95 noise, as well as royal syphilis, Alan's imaginary knighthood and Blue Peter badges. Plus: Edmonds, Barlow and Beverley Bacton. Do we find inner serenity? Are you f**king with me?!

We're talking garden burials, gobblin' Goblin burgers, and Sidekick Simon's mammoth hangover in this week's Mid-Mor-Mat. As well as tackling shower wees, Angela's horny interlude and the Valentine Day (sic) gobble-off. Plus: Tom Stabb rents a digger, Adam insults some monks and Nick fumbles a quiz. Recorded live in Manchester!

White leather, rough tongues, bald aggression and Nick's annual bath are all up for discussion this week as we head to Manchester! We also pit Angela against Sonja, and ask: Can keyboards be pets? Blackbird: Balladry or bellendry? What would the world be without Monkey Tennis? Better/It's complicated! Kick off your shoes, big gulp of juice, let's see what happens!

We're back in Bristol, talking Anglian swagger, savaging Wild Swans and snacking on Chicken Drizzle Cake as we discuss Alan's 12 second wee, the redemption of Dave Clifton, engage in charity chat, and ask: Bernie Eccleston - Alan's hero?

Recorded live in Bristol, this week we talk knighting Savile, cooking Farage and washing elephants as well as discussing dream dinner parties, Making a (Noel Edmonds) Murderer and Alan's erotic radioplay along the way. Plus: What would an ITV Partridge look like? Can Jesus go on YouTube? And what happens when you pit Carl, Lee and Barry against Tom, Dick and Harry?

Simon's out and Zoe's in this week as we discuss Alan's chair slide, caller Samantha's 'fat arms', Nick's bootie love and the trouble with caller anonymity. We also ask the large questions: Has Alan ever finished a book? Are we mellowing in tandem with Alan? How does Mid Morning Matters stack up against Classic Partridge?

Quease! Glands! Hamza! Palm piss! In this week's slightly manky episode we see what happens when Partridge goes Paxman, celebrate the return of capes and put Alan vs. the millionaire, ridiculous LinkedIn people and Alan's earnings under the microscope. We also play a quiz which is conducted entirely fairly and we all definitely agree is just a bit of fun.

It's Alan on Alan on art on art on ancestry on ancestry on air rifles on air rifles this week. Other hot topics: Simon's weed habit, Chucky Egg (the meal of the north), the real Seal and - the return of JembAlan? Plus there's the small matter of 'a sidekick's betrayal'

We welcome all FOP (Fans of Partridge) as we dive into Alan's Twitter track record, bad callers and the MMM timespan. We also look into Alan's healthy anus (figuratively), the dark core of his callers, discuss the folk stylings of Will O'The Wisp and try to answer the question "What's the best thing?"

How funny IS Sidekick Simon? Why film in just a couple of rooms? Did Herbie really go bananas? Just a few questions answered this week. In addition, expect Billie Piper facts 'coming out the wazoo', and we talk hometown heroes, fowl play and the curse of 'Tottenham Cartoon'. Plus: We play Alan's Surname Mastermind and Fakenham or Realenham. Ooh, that's mustard.

This week we make our first foray into Mid Morning Matters, in front of an intimate live audience at Warner Music HQ; as part of their comedy events series. Sadly Adam didn't make it past Chiswick Roundabout for this recording, so you're left in the capable hands of Tom, Tom and Nick.We try to answer the big questions - but don't necessarily succeed - including: why was Anthea Turner the most hated woman in Britain? Is Bill Oddie actually okay? Is radio beamed down from space? And, most disturbingly, which muppets are we going to kill? This is great banter. It really is.

We get legally worried in this absolute groin-wrecker of an episode (and we're not talking about Wally Banter's Junk Box) as we discuss motivational course/panto Forward Solutions, Mid Morning Matters (only the show that Daily Daytime Debate could've been) and the link betwixt Alan, Oasis, and milk. Plus: How to hide redundancies, Sidekick Simon's forced alcoholism, Alan's "2% effect" and our final thoughts on I, Partridge.

Shock World Service 042 The Shoelace That Snapped by Jon Averill 04/10/11 London, United Kingdom 1. John Leyton - Johnny Remember Me The more eagle-eared among you will recognise the reverb-doused production techniques of Joe Meek all over this track. 2. Os Ritmistas Brasileiros - Samba 2° Andamento From the 1972 album ‘Batucada Fantástica'. 3. Aidan John Moffat - Nothing In Common I've never seen Grease. One day, one day. 4. Spiritualized - The Ballad Of Ricky Lee This track is taken from Spiritualized's ‘Amazing Grace', which is their most disjointed (worst) album. 5. Charles Dodge - The Days Are Ahead This is taking from a 1976 album entitled ‘Synthesized Voices', a work that used analysis and re-synthesis of human voices. 6. Bryan Ferry - Which Way To Turn Summer ‘81. A middle aged man from Washington, County Durham is driving aimlessly. The final embers of night begin to fade. He feverishly flips between radio stations, eventually settling half way between two, the dialogue from both overlaps amid white noise which bubbles & pops like water boiling in a pot. 7. Joe Goddard - Gabrielle Seems like a short while ago when Hot Chip seemed to rule the world. Joe Goddard's current output is the most accomplished so far. 8. Chrome Sparks -
