WHAT A YEAR IT'S BEEN FOR DANTE FIRES.

WERE THEY SAVAGE? WERE THEY GOING,

- ALAN. I'VE CALLED THE POLICE.
- WHAT FOR?

# TO PAINT HIS MATCHSTALK MEN
AND MATCHSTICK CATS AND DOGS #

IT'S ALAN PARTRIDGE. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!

THAT'S WHY I SAID THAT.

I'VE NEARLY MOVED EVERYTHING INTO THE HOUSE.

I HEAR THAT ALL THE UNSOLD COPIES
ARE BEING BUNDLED INTO THE BACK OF A TRUCK

I'LL TELL YOU HOW I FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS JOB.
BILL ODDIE... HELLO.

YOU COULD GET A BUS THROUGH THERE,
YOU (BLEEP)! LET ME THROUGH!

- HELLO, JED.
- HELLO. AND BUSINESS PARTNER.

IT'S LIKE BEING INSIDE AN ENORMOUS FOX'S
GLACIER MINT. WHICH, AGAIN, TO ME IS A BONUS.

I USED TO CHAT TO ANOTHER BLOKE
BUT HE LIKES AMERICAN THINGS.

I'M DOWN TO DO A SPOT NOW.
I'LL BE TALKING ABOUT GOD. SO IF YOU HANG AROUND...

IF HE'S LUCKY, IT STICKS IN HIS HAT,

- DID HE LEAVE A FIRST NAME?
- NO.

RIGHT. OK. I JUST THOUGHT I'D ASK.

- YOU HAVEN'T GOT WHIPLASH.
- I KNOW.
