"Alan Partridge's latest outing ended up on Sky because the BBC wanted to interfere with it and did not deem it worthy of a primetime spot, according to Armando Iannucci. Partridge co-creator Iannucci said the BBC was interested in the show, Mid Morning Matters, but were wary of it because it had already been broadcast online and so lined it up for a late night slot after Newsnight on BBC2. He said BBC executives also wanted to broaden the scope of the show, which is set entirely in a fictional Norfolk radio studio, to outside the confines of the fictional broadcaster. Iannucci warned that the BBC was missing out on new scripts because talent felt they had more creative freedom at broadcasters such as Sky and HBO, but said attitudes within the corporation were beginning to change."
