Due to the sudden illness of its regular host, BBC One show 'This Time' welcomes Alan Partridge as its guest presenter. The show sees Alan handed a career lifeline - the chance to stand in as co-host on a nightly magazine show.

His return to primetime television after his 90's chat show Knowing Me, Knowing You was cancelled after a guest was fatally shot on air. This Time is a heady mix of consumer affairs, current affairs, viewer interaction, highbrow interview and lightweight froth; very much the sweet spots for a man whose broadcasting style has been described as 'equidistant between chitchat and analysis'. Joining Alan in the studio is co-presenter Jennie Gresham (Susannah Fielding) and Tweet reader-outer Simon 'formerly Sidekick Simon' Denton (Tim Key).
