Fresh-faced and just out of drama school, Steve Coogan spoke to Alan Titchmarsh about his knack for impersonations at school, for friends and even in front of Sean Connery!
He also talks about his voice acting work on Spitting Image before running through some of his repertoire.
Clip taken from Daytime Live, originally broadcast 7 March, 1990

that snort laugh
Coogan looks and dresses exactly like a student from 1990.. I was the same!
Alan fresh out of Norwich. Trying to make it in the big in the big smoke
Lovely stuff.
I always thought that the debates about impressions in The Trip were meant to be ironic because Coogans impressions are always so bad 😅
Smug lefty Tosser never like him
Wot, no Kinnock? That is the best thing he does.
4:00 it's Brian Bandonde from face jacker
Woke cnnt
There’s a bit in radio 4 series of KMKY where Partridge interviews a young edgy comedian who does voices for spitting image.
Do your Frank Spencer….
Back in the mid-1970s, I used to relish missing school through illness, etc, just so I could watch Pebble Mill at One. Daytime TV has never been the same.
Do your Wogan!
Have you done it as a schoolboy? Oooh you’re so dirty 🤣
He basically sent himself up in this, in the radio original version of KMKY with Alan Partridge, probs only a couple of years after this.
God that's good
Whatever happened to him? 😉
Them teeth!
You can see Coogan creating the character of Alan Partridge in real time as he watches Alan Titchmarsh
Had no idea Steve Coogan used to have his ear pierced
