The Eric Andre Show
2012Series


Due to the sudden illness of its regular host, BBC One magazine show This Time welcomes Alan Partridge as its guest presenter. A long-awaited return to primetime broadcasting.

This Time presents 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.

With exciting news on the show’s presenting lineup, Alan and Jennie get stuck into the issues of the day: Scottishness, vegetarianism and a harrowing look at corporal punishment.

Established as the show’s permanent co-host, Alan is making fearless, no-nonsense TV. Today, that’s police dog bravery, product placement and meeting his own celebrity lookalike.

A special programme focusing on the #MeToo movement and a chance for Alan to show off his broadcasting chops. Alan’s very own mixed vocal harmony group The Quavers perform live.

Faced with some of live TV’s toughest challenges - rancour behind the scenes, a viewer in danger, a ladies fashion segment - Alan calls on ‘Sidekick’ Simon to step up to the plate.

Meanspirited and not very funny. Most comedians end up turning mean, cynical and nasty in their later years. They end up using their vehicles to insult and belittle people or groups they look down on. Steve Coogan appears no different in his latest Alan Partridge offering. Gone are the days of gormless Alan bumbling through interactions with people and unknowingly insulting them or stomping all over social norms. Here, Steve uses Partridge to insult people he disagrees with in real life and uses the show as a platform to make thinly veiled aspersions. Time to pack it in.
