Will Chich (Caged In: Coppola Connections) and Russell Bailey (Not Just For Kids Podcast) return to Flixwatcher remotely to review Will's choice Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa.   Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa is a 2013 feature length outing for Norwich's premier DJ Alan Partridge. Starring Steve Coogan as Alan. It features reoccurring characters Lynn Benfield (Felicity Montagu), Michael (Simon Greenall), and "Sidekick" Simon Denton (Tim Key), with some new faces including Pat Farrell (Colm Meaney), Steve Stubbs and Specialist Firearms Officer (Sean Pertwee). When North Norfolk Digital is brought out by a multinational corporation redundancies are on the table. DJ Alan Partridge hijacks a board meeting with the intention to support long-serving DJ Pat Farrell. When he discovers it is between him or Pat to go he decides to save himself and “JUST SACK PAT”. Pat is sacked and Alan is saved, at a company party a disgruntled Pat takes the radio station hostage at gun point and Alan is sent in to negotiate. Spin off films from hit comedy TV programmes can vary in quality from the good (Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan) to the very, very bad (Brüno) with a struggle with sustaining a longer runtime and story based on sketch style comedy. Thankfully, Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa is a real treat for fans of all things Alan. Recommendability for Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa was high, but based on being a fan or at least familiar with Alan. Small screen and engagement scores were also high to give a very impressive overall rating of 4.41.   [supsystic-tables id=295] Episode #283 Crew Links Thanks to Episode #283 Crew of Russell Bailey (@russlovesmovies) and Will Chich (@WillChich) Please make sure you give them some love   More about Alpha Papa For more info on Alpha Papa, you can visit Alpha Papa IMDb page here or Alpha Papa Rotten Tomatoes page here.

In the latest episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, two films with long gestation periods. Disney was unsure of making TRON: Legacy for a long time. It took a trailer for a film that hadn't been greenlit yet to ultimately make it decide. Steve Coogan, meanwhile, was reluctant to finally press ahead with an Alan Partridge movie. And when he did, it proved to have a very difficult first week of filming. Stories of both are discussed in this episode. Find Simon on Twitter at @simonbrew, and the podcast can be found at @filmstoriespod. You can find the Film Stories website here. Support our work at www.patreon.com/simonbrew.

"Stop getting Alan wrong!" That could well be what you shout at a couple of points in this very special Empire Podcast appreciation of all things Alan Partridge, as Alan anoraks (Alanoraks?) Chris Hewitt, Nick de Semlyen and Pilot TV's Boyd Hilton get together for a solid 49 minutes of scorching Alan-based chat... and end up misquoting him on several occasions. The authorities have been informed. But that's not all. Chris also sits down for a chat with Neil and Rob Gibbons, the clever flucking clunts who have, for the last few years, been getting Alan right, as writers (and now directors) of Mid-Morning Matters, Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa, and his triumphant return to the BBC with This Time with Alan Partridge. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll pierce your foot on a spike -- not our words, Carol, but the words of... oh, no, those are our words, actually. Enjoy.

This week we chat about the Oscar-nominated Vice, which features some of the most Dick-Cheney-like rubber ever glued to a human face. It's angry, it's polemical, it breaks the fourth wall constantly, and the fake liver spots are second to none. But is it good? That's the question we would have addressed in our review had we not spent so much time speculating about how hot it gets under a kilo of uncannily flesh-like silicone.Plus, we talk about the casting of Denis Villeneuve's megabudget, megasexy Dune adaptation; we salivate at the prospect of a non-comedy version of Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa about James O'Brien and Brexit; and we go through some listener tagline suggestions for Vice (the prosthetic Dick skin movie).

This is a monumental episode of Convicted Cinephiles for two reasons. First, and sadly, this is the final episode of co-host Michaela. We all love here and wish her well, as Stevil and Matty move on as Convicted Cinephiles 2.5. And secondly, for the first time in the established format of the show we're tackling a usual holiday marathoner in a super sized five movie episode! Yes, we are going ending our 2014 with a James Bond cast! We have four of six Bonds recognized, as we bring in Demigod Rob and Shogun Gamer's Casey White to bed women, drive sweet cars, indiscriminately kill bad guys and play with those cool gadgets. Connery would approve! (Lazenby would not.) These are our Staff Picks of the week! After months and months of Matty pushing it and recommending it as a Staff Pick, Stevil finally got around to checking out Alan Partridge (Alpha Papa) and loved it. Brilliant character comedy as only Steve Coogan could deliver it, coupled with supporting work from Colm Meaney and Darren Boyd. Rest assured, this movie is on Netflix now and begging to be added to your queue. With five Bond movies to watch over a busy December, it's pretty hard to fit in another movie, but Michaela managed to squeeze one in for her final Staff Pick. If you're a child of the 80s, you know this film well, but if you haven't then it's time you picked up The Muppets Take Manhattan. Kermit and the Gang try to make a Broadway show with Muppet-y hijinx with appearances Art Carney, Dabney Coleman and the late Joan Rivers. Matty has two recommendations for you to savor this episode. First, Denzel Washington reteams with Training Day director Antoine Fuqua for an adaptation of the Edward Woodward TV series The Equalizer. Washington plays a character that kills people with everything BUT a gun. Casey delivers an over Skype high five for this pick. For his second pick, Matty heads to New Zealand for Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi's dark comedy What We Do In The Shadows. The movie follows three roommates, who try to deal with their own deep seeded problems, as well as try to live with each others terrible quirks and short comings. The extra bonus? They're vampires! Sounds like more fun from the creators of Flight of the Conchords and Eagle vs. Shark. Casey brought something to boggle and twist your mind, as well as tease something in the Cinephiles history. Predestination is a time travel mystery from the Spierig Brothers, who brought us Undead and Daybreakers. Again they have Ethan Hawke in the lead, as a temporal agent who is traveling through time to stop a mass murderer known as the Fizzle Bomber. Definitely check this film out for a stand out performance from newcomer Sarah Snook. For the main subject of Bond films, our panel explains why they made their choices: "I chose Thunderball for a number of reasons: 1. No had picked a Connery movie (yet). 2. It is arguably the best Bond movie starring Connery. 3. It was a tribute to my father, who was a massive Bond fan and introduced me to the franchise." - @DemigodRob "Admittedly, You Only Live Twice isn’t the best Bond… it wasn’t even the best Bond film on the short-list crafted for the podcast. That being said, it’s one I have a special kinship with due to the fact that it was both one of the first Bond films I saw and because it kind of the pinnacle of the camp of Bond films. The ridiculous plot for global domination, the inclusion of SPECTRE for the second time, and one of the coolest ‘gadgets’ ever: Little Nelly." - @TheNightNinja "Why did I pick On Her Majesty's Secret Service? Several reasons: We watched this during near Christmas and I thought it would be nice to pick a movie that fit the season. This film is very wintery! Yay snow! And of course, we can't forget the incredible wardrobe!In all seriousness, I think this film gets overlooked quite often, and I think it deserves more recognition. The plot is strange and inventive, there is an interesting Bond girl, the ending is uncharacteristically dark, and I think Lazenby did a fine job as Bond. Overall, it's a winner for me, and one of the more interesting films in the series." - @avidcinephile "For me, Roger Moore was my first Bond and Moonraker was my first movie. Fortunately I didn't bring Moonraker because that movie is terrible. I did bring it's pseudo prequel The Spy Who Loved Me. This is the quintessential Bond, chalk full of stunts, action, gadgets, and sexy ladies. It's what makes a brillant Bond film, and if Bond doesn't start and end his adventure with bedding a women and blowing shit up, it isn't really a Bond movie." - @mattydub604 "I love Bond films. Connery's great, with Moore it's like watching someone's dad hit on girls, Dalton, Lazenby and Brosnan have their points too, some more than others. Still, I am very much enjoying Daniel Craig's version of Bond and Skyfall is the ultimate film for me. We're definitely moving in a more traditional Bond direction, but for a new time, world and generation. Sam Mendes crafts a great John Logan script with the memorizing cinematography of Roger Deakins, who's IMDB credits list great film after film. Adding the brilliant work from the rest of the cast, including one of the best Bond villains, Javier Bardem's Silva, and you have a film that will truly stand the test of time, like Dr. No and Goldfinger. I didn't even get to gush about that Adele theme song..." - @theStevilDead What is your favorite Bond film? Do you or did you enjoy our picks?
