Piers Morgan’s Talk TV show has suffered the ignominy of being beaten in the ratings by a programme fronted by a Canadian “human rights activist” on rival GB News. Rupert Murdoch’s challenger station, launched to shake-up the TV establishment, is facing a crisis after just one month on air. Despite bullish tweets talking up its social media impact, live viewing for Morgan’s flagship prime-time show is in freefall.

Piers Morgan had to end an interview on his show early after his guest branded him a ‘c**t’
Ex Good Morning Britain presenter Piers was talking to a guest about trans rights on his TalkTV show, Piers Morgan: Uncensored.
The guest said: "I don’t really know. I’m going to leave the interview now. I kind of only came on here because I thought it would be kind of funny.
They added: "I want to say you’re a c***-"
Piers ended up apologising to those watching, saying: "I want to apologise again to all viewers."
The clip was shared on social media by one viewer, who wrote: "I see ‘Piers Morgan, Uncensored’ is having a good one tonight."
Piers replied: "Does what it says on the tin..."
He later shared the the clip in full and said: 'ICYMI: Last night, I tried to interview one of the militant trans activists involved in wearing balaclavas & terrorising women at the Emmeline Pankhurst statue in Manchester."
"It didn’t go well, but it was very insightful as to how vile, abusive & intolerant some of them are…"
Piers recently said he is happy with his ratings despite reports that his viewership is plummeting.
Official figures from BARB claimed Piers’ show Uncensored saw its viewership shrink from almost 400,000 down to 58,000 in less than three weeks and had been beaten by Nigel Farage’s GB News show which airs at 7pm.
Piers tweeted: "UPDATE: @PiersUncensored beat Sky News & GB News in the UK ratings AGAIN last night.. still very early days, but the show is already gaining real traction around the world, making lots of news, and as I hoped, annoying all the right people."
Piers Morgan: Uncensored airs weeknights at 8pm on TalkTV.
