This is final episode of the excellent series I'm Alan Partridge. Alan is obviously very affected by the events of the previous episode To Kill a Mocking Alan where crazed fan Jed Maxwell pretty much kidnapped him in his horrific fan room!

Here are the plotlines from I'm Alan Partridge series 1
We open by seeing Lynn trying to calm Alan down with his fears of being assassinated-a hangover from the previous episode. At least he is cheered by the fact that his sleeveless jacket gives the appearance of a bullet proof jacket- the attacker would be forced to take a head shot, and he wouldn't even know what had happened!
Alan is very much cheered by the fact that Chief Commissioning editor of the BBC Tony Hayers has actually died whilst removing an aerial from his roof- Spiceworld- things are looking up for Alan! Even better than that is the fact that Chris Feather, who likes Alan (God knows why) has taken up the role!
Onto judging the vegetable contest at The Swaffham Country Fayre- he absolutely loves the plums- just put nice plums- but is confused by the protusions from the onions... are they a good things or a bad thing? They would make an excellent murder weapon- beat someone to death then eat the evidence!
Sadly, Alan then attends the funeral of Tony Hayers (you've never looked evil in the face until you've looked into the eyes of the man who has just cancelled your second series). He eventually manages to speak to new BBC boss Chris Feather, who tells Alan that he needs to back on TV- Jurassic Park!
The series ends on a strange note in Chris Feather's office. Chris promises Alan a new 5 year contract with the BBC, on a salary of £200,000 per year... but dies just before he signs it... however, in a sinister way, Alan grabs Chris' hand and signs it anyway!
So after a terrible start for Alan, at least things are looking up by the end of the series! However, things do change quite alot for Alan Partridge before the start of I'm Alan Partridge series 2
