He’s already been seen brandishing a gun on Cromer Pier - and now he’s set his sights on Norwich.
Filming for the new Alan Partridge movie, which is due out in the autumn, moves to Norwich today, the 140-strong film crew having already shot scenes in Cromer and Sheringham.
It is expected that filming for the movie, starring Steve Coogan, will take place around the market today and tomorrow, with some of the filming taking place at night.
Partridge fans have already braved the cold on the coast to catch a glimpse of their hero - and no doubt they will also be out in the city in the hope of hearing that famous cry of ‘Aha!’
So if you have any pictures or tales about Alan and his film crew in Norwich, we’d love you to share them with us. Get in touch via email: david.freezer@archant.co.uk

Not spotted S Coogan either. As long as it boosts our micro-economy, it can be as crass as it wants. Spotted a budgie in a pet shop, too.

IT man - I asked the crew and they were all extras and not real cops. Cars are apparently leased by a props firm and they have a licence for the lights. No harm done and all this activity can only boost the economy.

No spotting of Partridge but plenty of pheasants and rabbits - mainly in road kill.

Just another thought, if they were NOT real emergency vehicles, they surely should not have had blue lights flashing..... Even if they were - what was the emergency?

I have just seen the Radio Norwich van followed by EIGHT emergency vehicles all with blue lights flashing. I sincerely hope that these were NOT real police, paramedics and ambulances because the emergency services have a terrible response time anyway without pandering to this fool.
