Will Farrell and Steve Carell in Anchorman 2.
Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell), we are told, was the greatest anchorman to have ever lived.
He taught the world what was right and what they should be interested in hearing about.
He was an old-style newsman, with salon-quality hair, of course.
But since we first met him in the original movie nine years ago, Burgundy had a fall from grace as the networks shunned him and the bottle grabbed him hard.
At his lowest ebb, he was saved.
Now the big man is back and better than ever. Anchorman 2 - The Legend Continues is classic Burgundy as he reunites his team - weatherman Brick Tamland (Steve Carell), investigative reporter Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd) and sports reader Champ Kind (David Koechner) - and takes the airwaves by storm.
Helping launch a new 24-hour news channel, Burgundy's team soon move from their 2am slot to prime time based on a simple diet of car chases and cute animal stories. His approach is simple, but then his audience is simple as well.
Although Burgundy is the central character, his team members get their moments to shine and Brick's romance with secretary Chani (Kristen Wiig) has classic moments.
Burgundy can be an acquired taste. His brand of humour is basic and somewhat crass, but if that doesn't offend, it is also very funny. Craig Nicholson
