03.10.03 I'm
Alan Partridge - Series 2
VHS
and DVD Release: 10th November 2003
Five
years after disappearing from our screens, Alan Partridge (Steve
Coogan) bounced back.
In
the last series of I'm Alan Partridge, Alan had lost his TV series
for the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ, his wife had left him; he was working as DJ at Radio
Norwich and living at The Linton Travel Tavern. He had narrowly
missed out on a new 5 year contract with the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ, when the controller
died tragically just as the lucrative new contract was about to
be signed. The last 5 intervening years have been difficult for
Alan, he had a breakdown and drove to Dundee in his bare feet.
However
as with all resilient celebrities, Alan has made a comeback and
is now living in a caravan on the building site of his new home.
His Ukrainian girlfriend Sonja (Amelia Bullmore) is a mere 33 years
old to his 47 years and he hosts a regular slot on Radio Norwich
and still enjoys a frank exchange of opinions with his fellow colleague
DJ Dave Clifton (Phil Cornwell).
Faithful
PA Lynn (Felicity Montagu) is still by Alan's side, but the five
years have seen great change in Lynn's life, not least of which
is her new haircut. Michael (Simon Greenall) has also moved on from
the Linton Travel Tavern and now works in the local garage, a handy
call in point for Alan on his way home from work. Alan's written
an account of his climb back in a book called "Bouncing Back..with
Alan Partridge" which he's hoping will help resurrect his national
career.
Extras
on this double DVD include an 'Anglian Lives' documentary with Alan,
'Unused Alan' deleted scenes, cast and production commentary, 'Add
On Alan' 10 minutes additional material, 'Alan Aid' highlights from
the 1991 and 2001 Comic Relief shows, 'Audio Alan' jingles gallery
and 'Still Alan' photo gallery.
