‘CONAN’ – Monday to Thursday at 11pm from 4th August on TruTV
It’s been announced that US talk show ‘Conan’ will air in the UK on new channel TruTV, available on all platforms, from Monday 4th August.
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/news/...oJwdb9QrROVRhx I’ve been a fan of Conan O’Brien since the mid 90’s, following him on Late Night, The Tonight Show, and now Conan, so I’m really pleased he is returning to UK screens. |

I like Conan, but I can't see it lasting long. Hopefully there'll be some kind of catch up facility...

HOWEVER, this deal is a bit like The Daily Show on Comedy Central UK or The Tonight Show on CNBC, the programme and the channel owner are strongly connected, so as long as the ratings are half decent by the channels standards it could become a permanent fixture. Here's hoping. |

Is it clear what the delay will be?.
I'm assuming that the UK showing will be the previous night's US showing. Iain |

Having seen how long The Daily Show lasted on More4 or how long the Late Show with David Letterman lasted on any number of the channels it's aired on over the years, I'd agree.
I've always wanted to watch the Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel late night chat shows as he always gets great guests on and they look so much fun to watch but i end up just watching clips on You Tube instead. Craig Ferguson and Conan not so much. |

Has the Late Show with David Letterman ever been shown on UK tv? In fact have any US late night chat shows ever been shown over here on UK tv?

Craig Ferguson and Conan not so much. As has already been said, The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon airs on CNBC in the UK. It can be seen weeknights at 11pm, one a 1 day delay. Although these broadcasts are 30 minute edits for the original 41 minute US broadcast. However 4 of the 5 shows are aired in full on Saturday and Sunday at 8pm and 8:45pm. Unless you really can’t wait I’d recommend the weekend broadcasts as the bits they edit out are usually the comedy bits which I think are the best bits of the show. Jimmy Kimmel Live has never aired in the UK. |

TruTV have confirmed the delay will be 24hours on Twitter:
"We'll be 24 hours later, although the US airs Monday-Thursday, so the Thursday episodes will show in the UK on Mondays." Iain. |

Late Show with David Letterman has been on a number of UK channels over the years. If I remember correctly its been on Sky One, Paramount Comedy, ITV2, ITV4, and Diva TV. And for one week only (when the show travelled to London), BBC2.
Do you know what years the show screened for the various channels above? Quote:

Yeah, the weekend slots are longer so probably worth watching than the regular 11pm slot.

I must have not looked hard enough in the tv listings for this. I vaguely, vaguely recollect that i think i may have seen it on ITV4 at some point but can't remember when exactly.

I can't believe i didn't know about this till now, crazy! Yeah, the weekend slots are longer so probably worth watching than the regular 11pm slot.I always watch (record) The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon at the weekends on CNBC as you get the full episode. Unfortunately there’s always one of the five shows a week that only ever gets a weekday broadcast, but seeing how good CNBC has been at airing The Tonight Show/Late Night programmes (consistently since 1997) I won’t complain.

Thanks. Will look out for it. Have seen some of it via the internet. Would rather they broadcast Letterman though, even in his last year.

In preparation for CONAN premiering in the UK on 4th August, there’s a 3 page interview with Conan O’Brien in this weeks edition of the Shortlist magazine.

Conan O'Brien is guest on Good Morning Britain this Thursday morning to promote CONAN premiering in the UK.
I suspect it'll be a pre-taped interview, probably with Ross King in LA, but Conan isn't taping any shows in the US the week so you never know... |

He was on LBC this morning, live in the studio, so he's definitely on this side of the Atlantic.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWnHvOLd_aY Maybe he will be in the Good Morning Britain studio tomorrow then. Its a shame The One Show is on a break as he’d probably appear on that too. Post any other sightings in this thread! |

The channel is up on the Sky epg but at the moment you can't put the show in the planner yet but hopefully that will be sorted out soon and after 3 years it will be nice to watch these legally now. I'm very pleased! What with this and the news that Conan stars in Sharktopus vs Pteracuda on Syfy in the US on Saturday in a performance that made Gary Oldman cry it just remains for Syfy UK to pull their finger out!
