This Time with Alan Partridge

- Season 1

(2019)

Broadcaster Alan Partridge makes his long-awaited return to prime time television when he is asked to stand in as a guest presenter on live BBC One magazine show "This Time" after the regular co-host falls ill.

Alan and the team host a special show dedicated to the memory of a much-cherished broadcaster. With viewers in shock, it falls to Alan to handle this delicate situation as only he can. But one man's loss is another's opportunity.

There's exciting news about the show's new presenting line-up. Alan and Jennie get their teeth into more of the pressing topics of the day: aggressive Scottishness, vegetarianism and a harrowing look at the abolition of corporal punishment.

Now ensconced as the show's permanent co-host, Alan is able to produce the kind of brave, no-nonsense TV other broadcasters can only dream of. He talks police dog bravery and product placement before meeting his own celebrity lookalike.

A special programme focusing on the delicate issue of the #MeToo movement and a chance for Alan to show off his broadcasting chops. Features a live performance by Alan's very own mixed vocal harmony group, The Quavers.

Alan is in deep water when Jennie, after growing tired of his insults, walks off the set just before the show begins.
