The US do this sort of show so well. In fact, depressingly for ITV a Brit in the US (James Corden) does this so well. That may explain why in their wisdom they have moved the news back to create room for this attempt at 'a late night topical comedy show'.
And what a rubbish show it is. David Walliams has been the first host, but all he's done is make jokes about Trump (an easy target) and play his usual "I'm camp" card, combined with lots of references to Simon Cowell.
Apparently 12 expert comedy writers script this show. It's not surprising that none of them have come out in the press and owned up to that. I mean, you wouldn't, would you.
It's a nice attempt ITV. Shame it's not a good one.
