Alan Partridge - The Movie!



It looks like the Alan Partridge film may yet become a reality, with co-creator/star Steve Coogan admitting as much on Radio 1 recently.

Coogan was doing the publicity rounds for the Night at the Museum sequel when he revealed that Norwich's most popular DJ could yet hit the big screen.

"Yeah, we are planning on making a movie," he explained. "We're talking about it at the moment. What it is we're not sure. But yes, there are plans afoot to make a film."

Partridge is a fictional character who shot to television fame as the sports presenter on spoof news show The Day Today. His big break came when he landed his own chat shot -- Knowing Me, Knowing You With Alan Partridge -- although a tragic accident involving one of Lord Byron's duelling pistols, followed by a disastrous encounter with the head of the BBC, resulted in the show being cancelled.

This is the best news i have heard in ages !!
