TV’S NEWEST START.

Sky Sport viewers were disappointed to miss out on this morning’s Rugby World Cup final, as the broadcast was replaced with the premiere of a brand new TV talk show, hosted by rugby referee Wayne Barnes.

“The Wayne Barnes Show” is late-night style talk show, where Barnes is hoping to compete for attention against Jimmy Fallon, Stephen Colbert, and the All Blacks. 

The first guest on the show was highly popular actor Chris Pratt, known for the Guardians Of The Galaxy movies. 

While the general format for talk shows is for the host to ask their guests questions and let them talk, early critics say that Barnes appears to put more focus on himself.
