Finally, see what all the comic commotion is about
as Steve Coogan (Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull
Story) portrays the hilariously egotistical—and
trendsetting—Alan Partridge, "the precursor to
David Brent, the monstrously self-deluded worker
played by Ricky Gervais in The Office" (The New
York Times Magazine). Winner of three British
Comedy Awards as well as a BAFTA® Award, Alan
Partridge was also named the seventh Greatest TV

need for fame and attention.
