You can cross Coldplay and Alan Partridge singing Running Up That Hill off your 2022 bingo card
Fans have been enjoying Coldplay’s Music Of The Spheres world tour at Wembley for several nights, but one lucky audience got a comedy bonus when the band welcomed Steve Coogan onstage – in the guise of Alan Partridge wearing a Snow Patrol jacket.
Watch what happened.
Thank you @thisispartridge for giving us a huge Wembley singalong #RunningUpThatHill #ColdplayWembley pic.twitter.com/Kw18J0t2tG

“Running up hills, up roads – it’s all cardiovascular. Not sure about running up buildings, unless you’re Spider-Man.”
Peak Partridge. Forget Stranger Things – this is the new iconic Running Up That Hill moment.
Superb. Coldplay only went and brought out Alan Partridge. 👏 @coldplay #ColdplayWembley pic.twitter.com/dWHvmoxvH6

Alan Partridge taking over Coldplay and putting his own spin on a Kate Bush classic was not on my Bingo card. https://t.co/idHQRrGKDT

It seems someone who went to see the show on a different night felt cheated.
I can't believe I could've seen Alan Partridge when instead we got Craig David https://t.co/magStjrN3N

Fair comment.
Kate Bush wasn’t the only artist having a song butchered covered by Alan Partridge. ABBA might have some unshareable thoughts about this.
Alan Partridge turns up at a Coldplay gig in a Snow Patrol jacket and this happens. Bloody marvellous!! #ColdplayWembley pic.twitter.com/BCpyIiL2oR
