FIRST LOOK This Time with Alan Partridge

With not long to go until the return of Alan Partridge to the BBC, the first look trailer for the series a couple of new pics!

This Time with Alan Partridge is a new six-part series that will see Alan stand in temporarily as co-host of BBC One's evening weekday magazine show, This Time. The last time Alan hosted live television was Knowing Me, Knowing You, his nineties chat show which was cancelled after a guest was fatally shot on air.

This Time is the perfect shop window for a man of Alan’s gravitas and will, or should, see him finally recognised as one of the heavyweight broadcasters of his era. And with an array of diverse subjects on the agenda, it promises the perfect fit for a man whose broadcasting style has been described as ‘equidistant between chitchat and analysis.’

Joining Steve Coogan on the sofa will be his female co-presenter Jennie Gresham played by Susannah Fielding and Simon ‘formerly Sidekick Simon’ Denton, played by Tim Key. It has also been confirmed that Felicity Montagu will be back as Lynn!

Watch the trailer here which sees Alan and his co-host get ready to go love on air, here...

This Time with Alan Partridge starts Monday 25th February at 9:30pm on BBC One
