Watch Alan Partridge

Alan Partridge is a British action comedy film that focuses on the exploits of the fictional radio DJ of the same name. Despite a change in ownership of the station where Partridge makes his living, he isn't worried in the least that the multi-national conglomerate will give him the pink slip. But he's approached by his colleague, Pat Farrell, who pleads with Partridge to show up at an upcoming meeting of the members of the new board to convince the owners that Farrell is worth keeping at the station. But Farrell is so desperate to hold onto his job that he later disrupts a party celebrating the new station ownership by barging onto the property with a shotgun and holding the staff hostage. Because of his friendship with Farrell, the police enlist Partridge as a sympathetic negotiator in their attempt to diffuse the situation with Farrell before things get really ugly.
