This Time with Alan Partridge

To the guy who wrote it wasn't funny . You obviously don't have a sense of humour pal.The whole show was pretty much funny .It was classic Alan .I loved it Worked brilliantly .

If you expect I'm Alan Partridge then you'll be disappointed...however, what you will get is Coogan bringing Partridge into real life. Its very subtly done and very realistic. In my opinion better than knowing me knowing you which is clearly spoof. As for critics saying best leave a good character alone, i disagree. Some of his best stuff has been in recent times. Scissored isle for example. Long live AP..

Brilliant satire on bland tea time talk shows. Even the music rings through my brain as though it's real tepid awful true life. I think the reason people are saying they don't like it is because it's too close to reality.

I would concede that this isn't for everyone, it's not going to have a universal appeal, but for those that like Alan Partridge, and have an awareness of The One Show, will have an appreciation for what's happening here.

You will never be able to watch The One Show in the same way, Partridge tries to launch a TV career on the BBC following a few problems. Coogan is a terrific performer, it is totally cringe worthy, but enough going on to make you laugh.

It's not classic, but is funny. 7/10

If you love AP, then you are in for a treat.

It's not the AP from KMKY, but a more mature, eloquent AP, now in his 50s and still wanting to be that big BBC star.

Every single minute is packed full of cringeworthy text and facial expressions.

Steve Coogan in his element.
