Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Radio DJ Alan Partridge is facing uncertain times with his radio station being taken over by a corporate conglomerate. He makes things worse when he talks down a colleague after a promise to talk him up. The colleague handles things badly and takes the radio station into his own hands, literally, by taking them all hostage. Envisioning all his action heroes in his head, Alan will save the day by becoming a go-between for Scotland Yard, but his method will put himself and others in harm's way because Alan Partridge just can't keep his mouth shut.

Did You Know?
| Trivia | The film features a joke reference to an ex-drummer of the notoriously "uncool" 1980s rock band Marillion. The band were made aware of this and members were invited to the Leicester Square premiere of the film. The band's original drummer, Mick Pointer, was fired after their first album due to his limited technical abilities and they had a total of five drummers in the space of a year between their first two albums. The film does not make clear which of these drummers the character is supposed to be. The band were quoted: "We know Marillion are seen as 'uncool' but we were delighted to be a part of it."

| Goofs | Tasing someone causes all the muscles in their body to contract, therefore tasing someone with their finger on the trigger of a loaded weapon would cause them to involuntarily fire it. See more » |
