      Dec 14, 2022

      It came as a shock recently to discover, in some long-abandoned cranny of this ravaged psyche, a residue of what felt like self-respect. Any epsilon male sunk deep into middle age, and deeper into irrelevance, has no business caring what others think

      Wanted: ONE MAN

      Nov 29, 2023

      ‘We desperately need a man,’ said Mrs Beasley, the manager of our charity shop. ‘Speak for yourself,’ said my colleague Wendy, which was quite brave, as Mrs B is renowned across five counties for having no sense of humour. We’d just closed the shop,

      Mr D goes TOPLESS

      Apr 26, 2023

      ‘What An Unpleasant Man’: Alan Partridge Interviews Steve Coogan

      May 14, 2022

      Full disclosure. I don’t like Steve Coogan. But when the Guardian asked me to interview the controversial funnyman, I jumped at the chance – and not just because I’ve been replaced by a younger presenter on the BBC’s magazine show This Time, and have

      The Money Box

      Jun 10, 2022

      This is not a morality tale. It’s simply a story. It began innocently enough, over a lunch of beef pho in the Financial District, when my friend Paolo first mentioned the Money Box. Paolo was a pupa of industry then, waiting to emerge as a titan. He

      Dec 21, 2022

      Just about the only bad thing about this job are the deadlines. They loom over you, and they’re often armed with blunt instruments. One of the nice things about the job is that, just when a deadline is poised to strike and you think you have nothing

      Dec 6, 2023

      If you were kind enough to attend last week’s lecture, you’ll remember that our charity shop has been honoured by a rare gift – a male volunteer. He is called George, he used to work in public relations, and he is an Olympic-class name-dropper (as Pa

      The Devil You Know

      Jul 10, 2021

      I met the Devil today. He was walking down main street, right by the undertaker in B____, which is a little town near here, and which, for obvious reasons, I’d better not name. I recognized him straight away because he had furry legs with hooves for

      I really don’t like to bother you with my little troubles because I suspect you have troubles of your own, and you know what they say: a problem shared is two people worrying unnecessary. The thing is, it’s really, really cold in the charity shop at
