Can Icook them or part cook them this afternoon and then blast them quickly to finish them off tonight? Or will they turn soggy?

I think you could par-boil them and whack em in a hot oven for 20 mins later.

I usually par boil and leave them till later on.

I always parboil them. No they shouldn't turn soggy, depending on variety of potato

Sorry, what I meant to ask is can I pre-roast and re-heat them?

I've done that before, with leftover roasties, and they're fine
