The official script for the box-office smash movie, featuring every ruddy word (and stage direction) of Alan's seamless transformation from natural-born broadcaster into fully fledged and occasionally fully dressed hostage negotiator. Contains deleted scenes and an exclusive Foreword by Steve Coogan. With a television career behind him and a much-coveted breakfast slot in his spiritual home, regional digital radio, there was only one place left for Alan Partridge to turn: Hollywood! Or rather, an Anglo-French funded co-production for the big screen. Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa sees Alan face his biggest challenge since he spent six months in a travel tavern, and is almost certainly the first time he has handled a loaded gun since he was a prime-time BBC2 presenter. When his beloved income-source North Norfolk Digital is taken over by a faceless media conglomerate, Alan's inimitable instinct for self-preservation leads to a violent and bloody siege on the radio station by an unhinged, nay mentalist, DJ, and a hostage crisis for which there can be only one man with the chat to diffuse it ... Featuring a cast of old and new Partridge favourites, including Sidekick Simon, assistant Lynn and Michael the Geordie, Alpha Papa is proof that while the jury's out on whether you can keep a good man down, it's an outright fact that you can't keep a good regional broadcaster off the airwaves.
This animated seasonal family comedy is co-produced by Aardman Studios. The film shows the inner workings of the high-tech operation run at the North Pole by Santa (voiced by Jim Broadbent) and his sons, which enables them to get all the world's presents delivered in just one night. But behind this slick and efficient machine are the disparate and dysfunctional members of Santa's family, including his cranky 136-year-old father, Grandsanta (Bill Nighy), his devoted wife, Mrs Santa (Imelda Staunton), and his poles-apart sons, Steve (Hugh Laurie) and Arthur (James McAvoy).

And despite suffering a breakdown, Toblerone addiction and skewering his foot on a spike he always bounces back. From Alan Partridge's first radio chat show to the pulping of his autobiography, Every Ruddy Word is the complete story of one of Britain's most-enduring comic heroes.
