I’ll have to check out Danger 5, not heard of it.
The smug smarm of Marenghi and his know-all fantasy bullshit I think is brilliant. I might actually read this book as I can hear the voice. I read the Partridge book. It was good fun. I could hear his voice when I read that too.

I listened to the Alan Partridge as my choice of audiobook with my wife campervanning around Australia
About eight hours into the book we were driving through the complete middle of no where. It was the bit where he shoots someone live on tv and she stops the van and bursts out "this is just fucking ridiculous!".
I realised i hadn't told her it was a fictional autobiography.
She'd sat through the bit where he has a nosebleed "drip, drip, drip etc" and all the rest without saying a word.

I see wool pulling over eyes potential hilarity galore with your missus.

I certainly missed a trick.
That's was years ago, she's far less indulgent now.
