Letterman returns

The Late Show with David Letterman is set to return to UK screens. The CBS chat show has been picked up by Diva TV, the new channel from the Hallmark stable set to launch in the autumn.

Letterman has had a bizarre history in the UK, acclaimed by critics but unable to sustain ratings. SKY One, Paramount, ITV2 and ITV4 have all screened the series at various times but all eventually relegated it until after midnight and then dropped the series.

Diva have picked up a several US shows talkies for their late '07 launch

This would be his sixth channel in the UK, if you factor in his week from London that aired on BBC2 (I remember some people writing to the Radio Times and being furious about his taking the piss out of the UK... just as he does with the US!).

Be interesting to see what time its on, I'm wondering if its going to be screened in the daytime. That may sound bizarre but it works in Sweden.....
