Stephen Mulhern wants to make a chatshow like James Corden's Late Late Show

By
Stephen Mulhern has revealed that he's currently in talks about hosting a new chat show similar in style to the The Late Late Show with James Corden.

The TV presenter, who returns to our TV screens with a new run of Catchphrase this Sunday (June 14), told Digital Spy that the UK has no such equivalent and he would love to create funny skits with celebrity guests.

Corden took over from iconic chat show host David Letterman and has been a huge success with audiences across the pond, partly due to his original comedy sketches with game A-listers.

"We're actually in talks about doing a new show - sort of similar to the James Corden show in the US, because ITV2 don't have anything like that," Mulhern explained.

"Because Britain's Got More Talent does so well, and we have such a laugh in it, the idea is to try do something like that over here.

"[I want to] have a good laugh, interact with celebrity guests, do something out of the studio and bring it back into the studio, play games, and have a good laugh. And most importantly, do it live.

"Then there's no going back, it's immediate and what's going to happen happens. When it's prerecorded sometimes celebs can go, 'I want that taken out'. But when it's live, you can't. So touch wood..."

Catchphrase returns to ITV this Sunday (June 14) at 7.15pm.
