The Last Shadow Puppets took to the stage on Later With Jools Holland last night, but their performance did not pass without comment - with viewers noting that having gone through his Elvis stage, Alex Turner has now evolved into Alan Partridge.
Appearing as every bit the kooky local radio DJ with a flop of 1980s semi-mullet hair and full-on 'dad in a caravan park' leisure jacket, everyone has half-expecting Turner to yell 'AHA' or 'BUTTER MY ARSE' at any given moment...
Here's what the internet had to say...
