James Corden is in talks to bring his hit US programme The Late, Late Show to the UK, according to his co-host Reggie Watts.<\/p>\n

The British funnyman has won plaudits since taking over the late-night talk show in America, with his Carpool Karaoke segments attracting tens of millions of views on YouTube.<\/p>\n

Reggie, the house band leader on The Late, Late Show, said discussions had been held about filming the programme in the UK for a short stint.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the Emmys in Los Angeles, Reggie told the Press Association: \u201cI think (James) is always going to have a strong association to the UK.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love the UK. We\u2019re thinking of maybe, possibly bringing the show there. Just for fun for a couple of shows.<\/p>\n

\u201cI keep mentioning it. Who knows if it will happen. I think that would be absolutely wonderful.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Late, Late Show was nominated for an Emmy for outstanding variety talk show but lost out to John Oliver\u2019s Last Week Tonight.<\/p>\n

Reggie said he was \u201cnot totally surprised\u201d at the success of the programme, which was previously hosted by Scottish comedian Craig Ferguson.<\/p>\n
