BBC comedy that sees the return of cringeworthy broadcaster Alan Partridge. Starring Steve Coogan and Susannah Fielding. The iconic Alan Partridge returns to the big time with a second series of weeknight magazine show This Time. Alan’s run as a primetime co-presenter at the BBC has been going surprisingly well – but all good things must come to an end. Alan is gripped by fears that his relevance is dwindling, his relationship with his co-host, Jenny, is increasingly fraught, and a behind-the-scenes upheaval is putting his position in jeopardy. Presented ‘as live’, This Time sees Alan straining to juggle a frenzied variety of topics while battling paranoia, unruly guests and very dry skin.
