By presenting "This Time" as live, Alan tries to keep proceedings ticking along; the show is a mix of consumer affairs, current affairs and drivel; striking the right tone would be hard even for a skilled presenter, pretty much impossible for him.

I don't need to see a glossy winner on morning television. I want the losers, the graspers, the egomaniacs. I want to be entertained. And, in spite of himself, that's what Alan Partridge does best. Go to Full Review

There is much to love, but Coogan turns out to be the least funny thing here when isolated from the rest of the cast. If the action moves away from the awkward studio exchanges to the outside broadcasts, the show falls a bit flat. Go to Full Review

There aren't many characters who could keep us all watching after 30 years, but Alan definitely can. Release the glitter cannons. Go to Full Review

The second season of This Time stands as a testament that this is one of the most robust comic creations of the twentieth century - and quite possibly of all time. Go to Full Review
Alison Rowat The Herald (Scotland) 05/17/2021
Glad to see the writers (Coogan and Neil and Rob Gibbons) have kept what worked from the first series, including Sidekick Simon's techno idiocy, and the nippy reporter who corrected everything Alan said. Go to Full Review
