DOMINIC BRIGSTOCKE

Plot

This DVD version contains the complete series. Volume 1 of the hit TV series starring comic genius Steve Coogan. Oily Alan Partridge, having seen his TV chat show go down the drain, is now an early morning DJ on Norwich Radio. In "A Room with an Alan", Alan presents ideas for new TV programmes, including "Alan Attack" - a sort of slapstick Cook Report _ and "Arm Wrestling with Chas and Dave". In "Alan Attraction", Alan enjoys a Valentine's Day assignation with the receptionist at Peartree Productions. In "Watership Alan", Alan gets into trouble for presenting a promotional video for a boating company. Episodes 4-6 of the hit TV series, including 10 minutes of never-before-seen footage. In "Basic Alan", Alan is the only guest at the Linton Travel Tavern, leaving him with endless possibilities for entertainment (NOT!). In " To Kill a Mocking Alan", while hosting "An Afternoon with Alan Partridge", Alan must cope with the attentions of his number 1 fan, Jed. In "Towering Alan", Alan is desperate to escape the confines of his hotel room. Then he receives an unexpected phone call with some tragic news.......... Or is it?
