Line 3:
Diminutive Scottish comedian of Italian descent whose playfulness with words and blend of observational neuroses, surrealist whimsy and biting satire has earned him a cult following and numerous plaudits.
'''Armando Iannucci''' co-produced and co-wrote the award-winning radio news satire ''[[On The Hour]]'' and its critically acclaimed television adaptation ''[[The Day Today]]''.
Despite these accomplishments, Iannucci's most popular creation remains hapless TV presenter Alan Partridge, created with comedian [[Steve Coogan]] as a minor character in ''[[On The Hour]]'' and spun off into a number of popular TV series, including ''[[Knowing Me Knowing You]] With Alan Partridge'', ''[[I'm Alan Partridge]]'' and ''[[Anglian Lives]]''.
Line 14:
* ''[[Knowing Me Knowing You]] With Alan Partridge'' (producer/writer, all episodes, 1994-1995)
