Watch the trailer for The Alan Partridge movie. Codenamed Alpha Papa, it's the long awaited big screen adaptation of the hit TV show starring Steve Coogan. Having first surfaced as the football reporter on satirical news show The Day Today, Partridge has survived the talkshow Knowing Me, Knowing You, two series of I'm Alan Partridge, the online show Mid-Morning Matters, the biography I, Partridge and two Sky specials. The movie, surely, is the next natural step, and with Armando Iannucci and Peter Baynham, among others, on board as writers, the pure distilled Partridge spirit is sure to be preserved. The Alan Partridge movie will be released in the UK on 7 August
