More Partridge for Sky Atlantic
April 3, 2014
Steve Coogan’s Alan Partridge will return with a new series on Sky, as well as a big screen sequel, its makers have confirmed.
Henry Normal, co-founder of Coogan’s production company Baby Cow, said a sequel to the fictional Norfolk DJ’s film début, last year’s Alpha Papa, was in the pipeline, along with a new series for Sky Atlantic, where Partridge moved to in 2012 having previously been on the BBC.
“We are planning a sequel [to Alpha Papa], yes, that will be great,” Normal told The Guardian. “We are also looking at doing more Mid Morning Matters and another Sky special, a little bit like Coast with Alan Partridge, except I don’t think he goes out of Norfolk.”
Normal added: “We start writing now. I think we make it at the end of summer.”
