Talk TV: How successful has Piers Morgan's comeback been so far?

Since Piers Morgan first announced that he'd be joining News UK's Talk TV, the channel was guaranteed to be divisive. And after launching on Monday, April 25, it's time to look at how successful the channel has been during the first few days. Unsurprisingly, viewers have followed Piers on his move to a new channel.

Uncensored, his new prime-time show averaged 317,000 viewers during its first episode on Monday and the channel, which is owned by media mogul Rupert Murdoch, beat both Sky News and the BBC News channel during the same timeslot. The first episode featured an iconic interview with President Donald Trump - something which garnered headlines before the channel had even aired.
