This Time With Alan Partridge review

In this new woke TV world, where he is constantly aware of what he's not allowed to say, Partridge's wings are clipped.

Aidan Smith's TV week: This Time, Starstruck

A-ha! Alan Partridge is back, though Steve Coogan's chat chump has ditched his usual greeting for: "It's high time to say that if you've got time to give This Time your time then it's time to let This Time spend time making your time a good time ... on This Time!"

Is This Time's Partridge the best Alan Partridge?

OK, maybe not the absolute best. But like a fine wine (one Alan would - can we shock you? - actually like very much), Steve Coogan's creation has improved with age, as he becomes more and more outdated.

This Time With Alan Partridge review

Still an exquisite send up - but with a little too much Coogan.

Anita Singh, The Telegraph, 30th April 2021

This Time With Alan Partridge review

Another triumph of awkwardness for North Norfolk's iconic digital DJ as modern mores threaten to topple this king of chat.
