Incredibly, Alan Partridge has been away from the BBC for 15 years. He's been no slouch in the meantime, making films, writing books and starring in several perplexingly underwatched Sky specials, but this still feels like a homecoming. Not a vast amount is known about This Time ... with Alan Partridge, except that it seems to be an extended One Show riff that will at least momentarily see Partridge standing inside a giant petri dish. This cannot come soon enough.

Jenna Marotta, Hollywood Reporter, 15th November 2018Stan & Ollie: Coogan's a hoot, Reilly deserves an Oscar
This tragic-comic biopic is mostly set in 1953, the year Hollywood comedy legends Stan Laurel and Ollie Hardy toured the UK and Ireland in hopes of revitalising their careers and mending their friendship (damaged by Ollie's willingness to make a movie, 1939's Zenobia, minus Stan).
Charlotte O'Sullivan, Evening Standard, 22nd October 20182018 BFI London Film Festival Review - Stan & Ollie
The love Laurel and Hardy channelled into their routines is clearly reflected - and respected - by the entirety of Stan & Ollie's cast and crew, and it shines through onscreen in this melancholic but heartfelt celebration of the double act.
Tori Brazier, Flickering Myth, 22nd October 2018Review: Stan & Ollie
Making a comedy about two icons of slapstick is a road so full of pitfalls that even the great men themselves would probably just have taken a different route - one marked "new tarmac" perhaps. And yet the film - like the marriage of a six-foot-one, 280-pound Georgian with a rake of a man from the north of England - just works.
