BREAKING:- World One on CNN International moves to 11pm time slot weeknights.

With the launch of Piers Morgan Tonight, the new weekday talk show of Piers Morgan that starts on 18 January in Nigeria on CNN International (DStv 401) and now with the confirmed time of 9pm on the schedule it indeed means changes for CNN International's primetime line-up.

I've heard back from CNN International that confirms that World One with Fionnuala Sweeney will disappear from its 9pm timeslot on CNN International's schedule from 18 January. World One had its debut in September 2009, but CNN International has now decided to move the Piers Morgan talk show into the timeslot that World One has occupied for almost the past year and a half.

A new hour long World One broadcast at 11pm (Nigerian time) will debut at the end of the day on 17 January, which will be anchored by Zain Verjee and Monita Rajpal from London. Meanwhile World Sport and one of CNN International's regular feature shows will be moved to the new open 12noon timeslot where Larry King Live used to be.

Piers Morgan Tonight will go out in the new primetime slot on CNN International.

CNN International (DStv 401) just confirmed the time of the new talk show Piers Morgan Tonight which will debut on 18 January in Nigeria with Oprah Winfrey as his first guest, but it won't be in the 11:00am timeslot where Larry King Live used to be. Instead Piers Morgan Tonight will get a daily primetime slot of 9pm (Nigerian time) on weekdays.

With Piers Morgan Tonight moving to 9pm on weekdays on CNN International, where does that leave the current World One with Fionnuala Sweeney? CNN International isn't saying yet whether World One will be moving to another timeslot, or will be ending.

Oprah Winfrey will be the first guest of Piers Morgan Tonight .

The first guest of Piers Morgan Tonight, the new weekday talk show replacing Larry King Live on CNN International (DStv 401) this month will be talk show queen Oprah Winfrey.

The former British tabloid editor made the announcement at the Television Critics Association winter press tour who said that he interviewed Oprah Winfrey this past week in California. Although the time on the schedule for Piers Morgan Tonight has not yet been confirmed, it will most probably fill the 11:00am slot in which Larry King Live was seen (Nigerian time).
