Loose Talk

Loose Talk

"Loose Talk" was a chat show broadcast on Channel 4 in 1983.

Presented by Ian Hislop and Steve Taylor, "Loose Talk" was a short lived youth orientated chat show for Channel 4 which ran for one series in 1983.

It is notable for giving Hislop his first break in television, however he regretted the experience as he picked it as one of his pet hates for the comedy show Room 101 in 1994. Famously he interviewed a 'tired and emotional' Tom Waits on the show. Jonathan Ross worked as a researcher for the show.
