The Nightly Show was a British late-night entertainment and chat show hosted by various presenters each week, which premiered on 27 February 2017 and ended on 23 April 2017. The show aired on ITV at 10:00 pm on Monday to Friday evenings. Each episode was taped at the Cochrane Theatre in London at 6:00 pm, every weekday, four hours before that night's episode was scheduled to air on ITV.
Before the show's premiere, non-broadcast pilot episodes were filmed in December 2016 and February 2017 to test filming equipment, audience interaction and the show's set design.
The main purpose of The Nightly Show was to serve as a British response to the popularity of late-night television shows present in the United States, such as Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Late Late Show with James Corden and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
Due to underperforming viewing figures and poor critical reception, ITV decided not to renew the show for a second series.
