I'm sorry America - New Late Late Show Host is.....

[FourWheelDrift]

James Corden, he is being reported as taking over from Craig Ferguson.

Your gain is our celebration, especially if he stays over there

Again, sorry.

For shame FWD. He must be funny because everything he says makes him laugh and laugh and laugh. Things are always such fun with Corden involved and he makes sure we all know it, always. Lucky Americans, first Morgan and now Corden. Karma I say.

Does that mean that we can have Bing Hitler back ?

Only half of him; Ferguson was about the size of Robbie Coltrane when he was doing Bing.

I've been watching Craig on the LLS for about 8 years. It was interesting to see how he and the show has grown into a really fun and funny Pythonesque hour, most of it unscripted. He's now off to do a game show, like his mate Drew Carey on Wheel of Fortune.

Cordon is too full of himself at the moment but a good dose of Hollywood Powerplays many knock the stuffing out of his teddybear shtick. He may grow-up a bit.

The book I'm reading at the moment is Craig's American on Purpose. It's well written and funny/sad so far. Recommended.

Oh Dear God, good luck America.

I see a car crash coming.

Embarrassing.

He's one of these people that seems to be mates with everyone & yet nobody's sure exactly what he does.

He's like a latter-day Kenny Lynch.

Just saw him on Letterman, not even speaking in English. Gibberish!

No opinion on Corden - couldn't stand Gavin and Stacey and have avoided anything he is on since, hope he won't be back though.

I would imagine the awards ceremony host/Patrick Stewart ugliness has ended his career here.

Sorry, I meant hope.

6:30 onward. For me the point at which he actually believed he is talented.

It seemed at the time, that I was the only person in the world that detested it, everyone I knew gushed about it, which made it worse for me.

I hated it, I feel angry even just seeing it mentioned and writing this response.

He was the professional showbiz pal to Brucie, Tarbie, Tom O'Connerie etc. Golfing anecdotes aplenty.

I missed it last night, nodded off, but James was with Craig last night.
