This Time with Alan Partridge

It's great.. it's just Alan. If you have followed every installment including the books, you will see it as a very natural progression. The film wasn't as dense, but everything else is top comedy. Alan's character grows organically. The authors don't have to keep making new series, but when an idea comes, they work it into his biography very convincingly. It was a long wait (expected last autumn), so expectations were higher than for previous parts, which seem to have just popped up. The first episode wasn't perfect in terms of bits' lengths, but maybe it will make more dynamic sense in the series as a whole. It also ended with the weakest bit. But I can't imagine anyone who will not wanna see the next one.
