It's almost impressive how days before the channel has even launched, Piers Morgan has managed to make himself appear less honest than Donald Trump.
"Turn the camera off,” Trump says at the close of the video clip as he appears to rise from his chair. "Very dishonest."
But the audio of the end of the interview appears to tell a different story. The two men laughed and thanked each other, the recording shows. There are no signs of Trump's storming off set.
"That was a great interview," Morgan says in the audio at the end.

If this show fails he'll have nobody to blame but himself. Murdoch has spared absolutely no expense on this, including the most high-tech set ever seen, a column in the Sun which is obvs shamelessly self promoting, the cover of the Times magazine etc etc

Such superfluous use of words to describe what is essentially a TV studio

Who is going to watch it though?
The reason it did actually work on GMB was the 'chemistry' between himself and Susanna Reid. It was genuinely entertaining watching her attempt to tolerate him and often just completely overshadowing him in her far classier manner. By himself, I don't think it'll work. It didn't at CNN, I dont think it will here.

Ros Atkins gave him an unfriendly grilling on The Media Show yesterday but I'm not sure it achieved more than publicise Piers Morgan. The man is unrepentant Teflon.

It will find an audience, but not a massive one, although I expect it'll be 'massive' compared to GB News.
Yeah, GB News provided so much entertainment in their first few months, the endless cocks-up were so bloody funny, but this will be a lot more professional and polished, and somewhat less looney compared to kGB News.

When Ros Atkins asked him what he would count as 'success' he said 'still being here [ie, at Talk TV] in a year's time. Rupert is ruthless' - or words to that effect.It will find an audience, but not a massive one, although I expect it'll be 'massive' compared to GB News.

Eight PM, the nation is watching Coronation Street, due to the idiotic extension of the ITV news.
The Sas household watches Emmerdale, but not CS. Since the news has been extended, we record Emmerdale, and watch it a day later. Of course, recorded, you whizz
current live viewing figures are between 3-3.5 million, which is more like 5% of the nation

No one can cancel anyone. Let the 'cancel culture' fuckwits get on with it, and continue to read/watch/listen to what you want.
does it though. there's plenty of brilliant comics and musicians who aren't sex cases or racists who'll maybe get more of a look in if there's a clearout.

cancel culture is a just another wanky word for wokeness
load of nonsense really after chapelle manage to rejuvenate his career not really sure if it's a thing
Morgan is a twat but I used to like him grilling politicians on breakfast telly; he didn’t give them an easy ride at all.

Those days are long gone, grandad.
The dizzy average viewing figures of between 18 and 21 million in the 70s & 80s is down to around 5 million now.
Of course, Morgan will get nothing like that, but I certainly expect him to get more than the 80-100k that watch the Farage Show on GBN.

That's the figure for as shown on ITV1, once time-shift & on-demand viewing is added, it's around 5 million.
Live TV isn't that much of a thing anymore - Corrie is the most popular show on (live) TV even on those figures.
I said live viewing figures though.

Actually now overtaken by Emmerdale, but these figures do fluctuate.
Thinking of what you have said, live viewing is certainly going down.
Netflix lost 200,000 subscribers, and 35% of their stock price recently, so maybe streaming is also less popular.
I don't stream, I download. About 20Tb on my drives.

I know you did, but as you just posted 'Live TV isn't that much of a thing anymore', hence why I quoted the combined figure.
Sadly BARB has hidden more of their data from the public, since a few weeks ago only subscribers can see useful figures such as the weekly top 15 shows per channel, all that is available to the public now is the BARB monthly summary of total reach & share of channels, published around 2 weeks after the month end.
TalkTV's first full month of reporting will be May, so those monthly figures will be out around mid-June, but there will be various articles published in the meantime with 'overnight' and weekly figures quoted.
As the output is combined with TalkRadio, it'll be interesting to see how it impacts on the RAJAR figures, currently they have TalkRadio reaching 542k listeners.

I thought I would check out Farage on GBN tonight to see what the twat had to say about the other main twat, he's no fan of Johnson, I expected it to be his opening rant.
It wasn't, he started with almost 15 minutes ranting about the more minor twat known as Morgan & TalkTV.
Farage has started the war...
...and, Morgan is bound to react.

Is so vanilla
It's in both their interests to feign a phoney war. Any Twitter spat or he said-he said nonsense will just get them more column inches and publicity.I thought I would check out Farage on GBN tonight to see what the twat had to say about the other main twat, he's no fan of Johnson, I expected it to be his opening rant.
