BBC Having Steve Coogan’s Alan Partridge Return, This Time as a Host of History Series

When the BBC seeks to send-up its own history documentaries, who better to tap than Coogan’s legendary character (perhaps one of the most renowned characters in UK comedy history) Alan Partridge?

We can’t wait to see Partridge attempt doing something educational and can only hope that it finds it way to the States sooner rather than later.

Shooting gets underway next month and we’ll keep you posted on premiere dates, especially the ones for us Yanks.

Alan Partridge to Return to BBC with ‘This Time With Alan Partridge’

Years from now, Steve Coogan’s two characters that will stand out from his career will be himself from those Trip movies and, of course, his DJ/host creation Alan Partridge.

Coogan has been playing Partridge for a quarter century now and BBC One is looking to extend that run even further with a six-part series where Alan co-hosts a weekday show This Time.

As he is back on TV rather than radio, you can completely expect things to go even more off the rails for Partridge than they normally do.

We can only hope that this series makes its way to the U.S. in a timely manner.

A New Alan Partridge Special and Series Will Be Coming to BBC

Steve Coogan’s iconic character Alan Partridge will be bringing a whole new TV special and a new series to the BBC later this year and in 2018 respectively.

With an Alan Partridge having done a movie and Coogan have had a different sort of success with Philomena, we weren’t quite sure what might happen to Partridge in the future.

Now, at this point in 2017, it looks like Coogan will be continuing as Partridge and himself in The Trip (Trip to Spain is great and you should go see it FYI) franchise for a little while longer.

Seeso continues a healthy stream of UK comedy imports with the Alan Partridge’s Scissored Isle mockumentary. It follows Steve Coogan’s hilarious, long-running, bumbling radio DJ character Alan Partridge in his latest escapades, which are mostly his own fault.

Get a taste of the special here and here, then go watch (or sign-up, then watch) on Seeso.

Anything from Monty Python: Live at the Hollywood Bowl to the brand new variety series hosted by The UCB 4, The UCB Show, to Garth Marenghi’s Dark Place to SNL to The Kids in the Hall to The World of Alan Partridge to…

30 Rock, stand-up from George Carlin, Louis C.K., Sarah Silverman, Amy Schumer, Hannibal Buress, TJ Miller, Kyle Kinane, Reggie Watts, Sean Patton, Eddie Pepitone, Jon Dore, Bo Burnham, Donald Glover, Garfunkel & Oates, Tim Minchin, and way more.

Really, that’s just scratching the surface. Actually, since this is the beta version, it’s only scratching the surface of scratching the surface of what the beta version of Seeso has got in store for us all like Harmonquest, Hidden America with Jonah Ray, etc..

Oh yeah, we should have mentioned that all of this is free until Jan. 6th, which makes one hell of a Christmas presents from Seeso. Get into all of it here.

Baby Cow Productions Set For Alan Partridge Sequel

Not even having made its way into U.S. theaters yet, Alan Partridge is already set for a sequel from Baby Cow Productions. We just saw Alan Partridge (AKA Alpha Papa) last night and can tell you, as hysterical as that we’re thrilled that a follow up is already in the works.

Seriously, Alan Partridge is damn funny and after you go see it this weekend in limited release, we’re sure you’ll want the sequel to come out ASAP.

This should be exciting to you for two reasons:

1) Alan Partridge starring Steve Coogan is coming to the U.S. on Apr. 4th (and VOD Feb. 27th)

and

2) You get to watch the trailer for Alan Partridge now, which, by the way is pretty great.

Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa Possibly Coming Stateside Next Year

Magnolia Pictures has just acquired Steve Coogan vehicle “Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa” (and we hope that you’re familiar with Steve Coogan and/or his radio DJ character Alan Partridge; if not, fix that now please). Not to mention that Veep’s own Armando Ianucci as well as Coogan are writers on the movie, you should get all excited for a potential 2014 release.

Here’s the trailer for Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa by the way if you haven’t seen it yet.
