Conan O'Brien's US talk show is to air in the UK for the first time later this year.

The TBS show Conan will be broadcast on the upcoming Freeview channel truTV from August 4.

The hour-long programme features interviews, stand-up segments and musical performances, and will air on Mondays to Thursdays at 11pm.

O'Brien said in a statement: "I'm very excited my show will appear in the UK because my sense of humour has been so inspired by the English - from Python and Black Adder to Steve Coogan, Ricky Gervais and comedy legend Gordon Ramsay.

"I think my self-deprecating, improvisational style should fit well with the UK sensibility, and my pale, freckled skin will remind your viewers of either a dear old friend, or that irritating man in the pub who won't stop singing Abba tunes."

truTV, already an established channel in the US, will also bring its shows Fear Factor and Killer Karaoke to its UK edition among others.
