The Brexit one will be interesting - I wonder if they'll be brave enough to point the finger at their former ownership group for the part it played.

Not sure what the Royals have done this year to fill an hour with though.

CNBC used to show Fallon edited down into a half-hour slot over here and it didn't ruin the show too much, half-arsed editing aside. Not sure the audience ITV are going to be targeting with this are going to be coming for monologues anyway.

Agree it'll be massively beneficial to UK music if it takes off properly, with Ross and X Factor on the slide and Strictly seemingly unable to have much influence on sales no matter how high its ratings go, it could potentially end up as UK TV's number one most sought-after music promo opportunity.

ITV have just played a minute long trailer advertising Christmas on ITV

As Harry's girlfriend alone has filled enough tabloid pages to print a full set of Encyclopedia Brittanica on I don't think they'll struggle! And were you on the ISS the first six months of the year or do you just have a really short memory? The number 90 seem vaguely familiar at all?

Well it is just a month away and Advent officially starts on Sunday!

Which shows were on it? Or was it one of those annoying ones where it doesn't actually say the names of the shows?

ITV were showing 90 minutes dramas when the News was at 10.30pm and still do like they did with Dark Angel. I suspect dramas would remain at an hour most of the times as that is the preferred format.

The soaps last night anyone?

I broadcast a medicated shampoo achieving a 100% share of the dog's washable areas. That help?

Yes.

A reminder that's Radio Times view.

One of those ones that doesn't actually say the name of the shows.

Basically a montage of Corrie, Emmerdale, Mr and Mrs, Maigret, POG Dogs, Vicious, Birds of a feather, Keyhole and some other bits that I couldn't identify etc

I certainly hope Walliams' stint on The Nightly Show is better than 'Walliams and Friend'. Class-mocking, childish and just generally not funny at all.

Well don't watch it then.

I certainly won't be doing again, rest assured

3.5m v 2.5m??? That's not that different for the two News at Ten programmes.

IAC obviously helps.

Well Walliams and Friend was pretty poor. The ep last year was 'ok', and I think like many said last year, 1 episode was enough.

I will watch the rest of the series, in the hope it gets better.

Joe Swah mentioned on the I'm A Celebrity spin off than the next elimination is on Sunday. He may have misspoke but it'd make sense to a degree with tomorrow's show only being 60 minutes long.

Lygo said this night time show is trying to replicate Cordens show but like people have said on this fourm previously who the hell out of England wants to see gino de campo doing some random game. The best hope for Itv is for it be well recived as I cant see them getting higher then 1m-1.2m.

You know what I mean. I can't see the ratings for them?

I thought tonight at 8pm on Ch4 Alan Carr's new series Happy Hour was meant to launch? It appears to have been replaced by a rpt of Unreported World

They haven't been reported and will not likely be, until Monday

When I did the schedule for the game H, it was in that slot today at 8 but at the weekend Channel 4 decided to delay it's launch till next week and changed the schedule! I don't know why they did it. So annoying.

Saturday has overtaken Sunday as the bigges day for newspaper sales. They know what sells and a TV 'scandal' story is on the front page again today.

I will flick through the Xmas TV guide included in the paper instead.

For the love of god WHY????????

The series was utter cack, everything about it was cack especially the poor writing, I'm surprised it was popular.

Daisy Goodwin aint all that.

I really enjoyed Walliams and Friend, I found it really funny. I hope it held up ok against IAC. Would be nice to see it above 4m. It would be good for a mainstream terrestrial comedy to become a big hit, there doesn't seem to be many of them these days

I think it might be. I didn't see Walliams & Friend but I've never been a huge fan of his scripted comedy (Big School, Come Fly With Me, even Little Britain). I much prefer him when he's just being himself, in interviews, on BGT etc. He's far funnier in that sort of setting, which The Nightly Show is more likely to replicate.

He's barely going to be off the TV in the next few weeks though, with Walliams & Friend, Royal Variety, Blankety Blank, the Shirley Bassey tribute and then a week on The Nightly Show. He'll then start filming BGT in January. Busy, busy, busy.
