Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa

British comedian Steve Coogan returns as the bumbling Norwich-based broadcaster, in a feature-length farce produced by BBC Films and the BFI. With support from fellow Brits Tim Key and Anna Maxwell Martin, the film manages to pull off quick-witted one-liners and slapstick alongside climatic action sequences. British comedy at its most British and comical.
