Late Late Show with James Corden Heads to Portugal for First Time

CBS Studios International has inked a licensing deal with SIC in Portugal for the basic cable rights to The Late Late Show with James Corden.

The series will premiere in early April on the cable channel SIC Radical a few days after the U.S. broadcast.

“The Late Late Show with James Corden has captured the attention of major broadcasters around the world,” said Giovanni Pedde, the senior VP of CBS Studios International. “We think it’s terrific that SIC Radical’s young and dynamic audience now gets to see the series in Portugal.”

“We are thrilled to have The Late Late Show with James Corden on SIC Radical’s schedule,” commented Pedro Boucherie Mendes, channel director for SIC. “Portuguese viewers will now have a fantastic, fun and witty program to watch, and SIC Radical acquires another strong brand to reinforce its mission of providing some of the best television shows from around the globe.”

“We are so proud that our show will now be broadcast in the country that brought us Eusebio, Figo, Nuno Gomes and Ronaldo,” added Ben Winston and Rob Crabbe, executive producers on The Late Late Show with James Corden. “We hope people enjoy watching this show a fraction as much as we have enjoyed watching those legends.”
