 Paul O'Grady has confirmed that he will move back to ITV in 2010. The comedian is to front a new primetime Friday night chatshow on ITV1 following a dispute with Channel 4 over planned budget cuts to his daily programme. O'Grady originally launched his teatime series on ITV1 in 2004. However, he defected to Channel 4 in January 2006 and went on to publicly criticise the way he had been treated by his former employers. Revealing the reasoning behind his latest switch, the star told The Mirror: "My overwhelming feeling is that this is right for me now. I know that when I left ITV four years ago it was a terrible parting, daggers drawn. "Hands up, I called them fit to burn. That's the way I am. My gob gets carried away with me and I regret mouthing off later. It's a bit like falling out with a mate. You lose it, tell them to bugger off and then two weeks later you've made up. "I'm aware there will be accusations of hypocrisy but I've always made it clear I was referring to certain people in the old hierarchy - not the company as a whole." O'Grady, who has suffered two heart attacks, also explained that concentrating on a weekly show will allow him to have "more respect" for his health. His new project is expected to launch next August. Digital Spy |

Bad choice. ITV will ruin him. He won't have the same audience on late night, and won't get the stars. Jonathan Ross and Graham Norton already are fighting for guests, and now Paul too.

Good move, his current chat show jumped the shark a long long time ago and is just an endless cycle of "funny" letters, him shouting and Bert and him looking like an idiot in an end of show stunt
