[Roger Moore still hasn't arrived]
Keith Hunt : It's a complete shambles, you're putting a brave face on it but he's not here! You tell the viewers Roger Moore's turning up, he's not!
Alan Partridge : [holding his hand to his earpiece] Keith Hunt, let me stop you in your tracks there, Keith Hunt, you can eat your hat now because, ladies and gentleman, I can confirm Roger Moore is on the show! We're having him on the show right now, live...
Keith Hunt : Where is he?
Alan Partridge : Live by telephone linkup from the car on a mobile phone. Hello Roger? Hello Roger?
Roger Moore : [voice] Hello, Alan.
Alan Partridge : Oh, joy! Oh, Roger Moore, uh, erm... Knowing Me, Alan Partridge, Knowing You, Roger Moore, A-ha!
[sound of signal interference]
Alan Partridge : Roger? No? Alright, listen, I'm going to cut to a key question, Roger, we don't have much time... A hypothetical fistfight takes place between Simon Templar, The Saint, and James Bond, 007. Who wins? Any thoughts on that, Roger?
[no answer]
Alan Partridge : Roger?
[pause]
Alan Partridge : Roger?
