We live in a post-Kerry Katona society so we’re all too familiar with the idea of washed up minor celebs wringing the last drops of fame from their careers by inviting cameras to follow them everywhere.
Even spoofs of this format have been around for a while, though it’s hard to think of any parody that could compare to the brilliance of Alan Partridge. Now, Leigh Francis is no Steve Coogan (and his TV presenter creation Keith Lemon is far too daft and one note to be compared to Alan Partridge), but Lemon La Vida Loca is witty and certainly up to date – a bit like a parallel universe version of Steps: On The Road Again starring an overweight H with a Leeds accent and 1970s moustache.
