Coogan attended St. Thomas More Roman Catholic Primary School and Cardinal Langley Roman Catholic High School.

He has stated that he had a happy childhood, and his parents fostered children on a short-term basis.

He lived on Manchester New Road in Alkrington.

1965

Stephen John Coogan (born 14 October 1965) is an English-Irish comedian, actor and screenwriter.

He is most known for creating original characters such as Alan Partridge, a socially inept and politically incorrect media personality, which he developed while working with Armando Iannucci on On the Hour and The Day Today.

Stephen John Coogan was born on 14 October 1965 in Middleton, Lancashire, the son of housewife Kathleen (née Coonan) and IBM engineer Anthony "Tony" Coogan.

He has four brothers and one sister, and was raised Roman Catholic in what he described as a "lower-middle or upper-working class" family which emphasised the values of education.

His younger brother Brendan was, for a few months, a presenter of Top Gear, while his elder brother Martin became the lead singer of rock band the Mock Turtles.

Coogan's mother is Irish and hails from County Mayo, while his father is also of Irish descent, his paternal grandparents – Margaret (from County Kilkenny) and Thomas Coogan (a tailor from County Cork) – having settled in Manchester shortly before the First World War.

His father was chairman of the catholic grammar school's parents association, and protested against the proposal by the Salford Roman Catholic Diocesan Schools Commission to close the sixth form, which would not happen.

In 1984 he gained 4 A-levels: English Literature, British Government and Politics, Art, and General Studies.

In the same year his brother Kevin acquired nine O-levels at the same school, and took part in local and regional sports competitions, notably in basketball and cross country running.

His eldest sister trained to be a teacher at the nearby Hopwood Hall College.

As a family, it was assumed that all the children would become teachers.

Coogan had a talent for impersonation and wanted to go to drama school, despite being advised by a teacher that it could lead to a precarious profession.

After five failed applications to various drama schools in London, he received a place at the New Music theatre company before gaining a place at the Manchester Polytechnic School of Drama, where he met future collaborator John Thomson.

While working on the Radio 4 comedy On the Hour, Coogan created Alan Partridge, a parody of British sports presenters, with producer Armando Iannucci.

Coogan described Partridge as a Little Englander, with right-wing values and poor taste.

He is socially inept, often offending his guests, and has an inflated sense of importance and celebrity.

According to Coogan, Partridge was originally a "one-note, sketchy character" and "freak show", but slowly became refined as a dysfunctional alter ego.
