'It's something middle-aged men would buy to say 'look, I've got a nice sweater.' Steve Coogan on the birth of the Partridge jumper From 1843mag
Alan Partridge started as a radio character. When I was doing him for a live audience for the first time in 1991, I thought: “I should have a look.” I bought this jumper in Lillywhites on Regent Street. It’s something middle-aged men would wear to say, “Look, I’ve got a nice sweater.” I put it on, combed my hair to one side, and that’s how Alan Partridge was born. The design is horrible but it’s good quality.in Affleck’s Palace, a second-hand shop in Manchester.
I bought two of these caps in Lock & Co on St James’s Street in London: one for me and one for my father. The day he died, he wore the cap to walk to church, and on the same day I was wearing mine. He liked the fact, as I do, that when you pull the ear flaps down it looks a bit rubbish but it’s very, very practical. It’s sort of that attitude to life, which is: “I don’t care if I look daft.” It’s a nicely crafted, well-made thing.
