Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa

North Norfolk digital gets bought by a multi media conglomerate resulting in one DJ getting the elbow. Alan Partridge finds himself at the forefront of the resulting siege and laps up the worldwide media interest. Being a fan for many many years I feared the worst for this inevitable blockbuster. Good British comedies tend to suffer when put on the big screen and unfortunately this is no exception. It's not bad but that's the point... It's good in places and sadly not so good in others and overall seems to loose all of the subtleties the series encapsulated so well. Overall it's just not as gritty or funny, but it was never going to be. Average but not a future classic. 

5/10
