5 is to showcase a weekly 90’ highlights show of YouTube channel Piers Morgan Uncensored.
Piers Morgan Uncensored has played out on YouTube since April 2022 and features high-profile interviews, debates and cultural commentary.
5 will air a weekly round-up of the best interviews and debates on Uncensored – tailored for the 5 audience.
Piers Morgan said: “Piers Morgan Uncensored has become one of the world’s fastest growing and most popular YouTube news channels, racking up over a billion views in just three years. I’m really excited our show will be crashing onto British TV screens in a game-changing partnership with 5, bringing viewers the most explosive debates, jaw-dropping interviews, and headline-grabbing moments every single week.”
Federico Ruiz said: “Being thrilled to have Piers Morgan on 5 doesn’t scratch the surface. Uncensored will be an excellent fit: our viewers love straight talk, big opinions, and unapologetic personalities—and Piers delivers all three and then some. A linear, terrestrial broadcaster partnering with a current affairs YouTube channel is the sort of exciting cross-cultural handshake that marks where the industry is heading. The fuse is lit. We’re braced for impact … Piers is coming to 5.”
Commissioned by Federico Ruiz, Commissioning Editor 5 and Paramount +, Piers Morgan Uncensored is a Wake Up Production, Executive Editor Alex Campbell.
