Quotes 

• [Alan is having lunch with Tony Hayers, a senior BBC executive] 

  Alan Partridge : [raising his wine glass]  Here's to our future relationship at the BBC.

  [Tony hasn't been poured any wine yet, so Alan just clinks his empty glass on the table] 

  Tony Hayers : You know, I don't think you should see your future just at the BBC, Alan. I just think it's time for you to consider moving on to new pastures.

  Alan Partridge : Have I got a second series?

  Tony Hayers : There's so many opportunities...

  Alan Partridge : [interrupting]  Actually, let-let-let, let me rephrase that. Erm, can I... No, actually I'll just repeat the question. Have I got a second series?

  Tony Hayers : No.

  Alan Partridge : [quietly]  Thank you. That's all I wanted to know.

  Peter Linehan : [coming over to the table]  Tony!

  Tony Hayers : Oh, Peter, hello, how are you?

  Peter Linehan : Fine, fine.

  Tony Hayers : Alan, this is Peter Linehan. He's revamping our current affairs output.

  [Alan just shrugs] 

  Peter Linehan : We haven't met but I liked your chat show.

  Alan Partridge : Thank you very much.

  Peter Linehan : Has he given you another series?

  Alan Partridge : [forcing a smile]  No, he won't give me one.

  Peter Linehan : [to Tony, jokingly]  Give him another series, you swine!

  Alan Partridge : [not joking]  Yeah, give me another series, you shit.
