Hugh Bonneville

Douglas is Cancelled is a story of everyday media folk

Could Karen Gillan TV news comedy be the new Alan Partridge?
It is no accident the biggest wally Steve Coogan ever created was a broadcaster. For towering vanity and endless neediness, Alan Partridge takes some beating. The Douglas in Douglas is Cancelled (ITV1, Thursday) is willing to try, but given lovely Hugh “Downton/W1A/Paddington” Bonneville plays the character there is a limit on how much of a monster he can be.
