I'm Alan Partridge (DVD)

This DVD is great - All the best that Steve Coogan has to offer and more besides! The scene is set as soon as you play the DVD the menu screen complete with alan prancing around to the theme tune of Black Beauty is a classic in itself - that is worth 5 minutes viewing alone!
