Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa (2013)
Product Description
Steve Coogan’s legendary chat show host and broadcaster finally
receives the big screen treatment in this comedy directed by Declan
Lowney. Occupying a career stasis-defining role as a mid-morning DJ on
North Norfolk Digital Radio, Alan Partridge (Coogan)’s hopes for one
last shot at the big time suffer a severe setback when it emerges that
his employers have been taken over by a giant media conglomerate. Alan
soon finds himself back in the spotlight, however, when newly-sacked
fellow DJ Pat Farrell (Colm Meaney) returns to the studio with a
shotgun and begins taking hostages. Called in by the police to act as a
hostage negotiator, can Britain’s most famous Toblerone addict turn the
tables and finally save the day?
