News: New Alan Partridge TV Talk Show?

Steve Coogan has spoken about his desire to do a new another TV chat show as Alan Partridge, though this time with real guests.

His previous TV chat show Knowing Me Knowing You With Alan Partridge featured spoof guests played by performers including Rebecca Front, David Schneider, Doon Mackichan and Patrick Marber.

Coogan was speaking on tonight's pre-recorded Alan Carr Chatty Man. He told Carr: "We might do a real chat show. Alan Partridge Speaky Man. We might do a real one, with real guests. I don’t know. We are having a think about it. Thing is we really want to make fun of the guests in a way that is a bit edgy. I interviewed Elton John once and made fun of his propensity of buying huge bouquets of flowers and being a gay ex pothead. He was great. He wore his pink suit to look extra gay for us. It was nice."

The show goes out on C4 at 10pm tonight (Thursday). Rob Delaney is also a guest.
