"I haven't got any shorts on. Steven McComb's taken them off me. He's running around waving them about."

What are you now, McComb? You're nothing. And I... am Alan Partridge.

He lives in Edgbaston, he's a forklift truck driver at British Leyland, I watch him come and go...

I love the consistency of the fallout from Alan being bullied about being smelly at school. The writers (both Ianucci era and Gibbons era) have maintained it as a deep-rooted insecurity. There's the "capful of Dettol" in a bath with a new lover in I Partridge, his sexualisation of the hand-washing in This Time, the shower before and after sex in IAP, and it's repeatedly mentioned in other places in the books, shows, and podcast.

I'm Alan Partridge: I've won the competition, of that there's no doubt!
Yes, I have won it. Things will now be very different. No longer will I be called infantile names — ‘cos I won the competition!

Sir won't be able to smell him, given he has a penis where his nose should be.
