US format The Tonight Show heads to Asia in first international adaptation with Mongolia's Central TV
ULAANBAATAR: Mongolian broadcaster Central TV is to make a local language version of US late-night talk show The Tonight Show – the format's first-ever international adaptation. To be titled The Tonight Show Starring Ankhbayar, the 20×60' series will be presented by Ankhbayar Ganbold. The news was revealed by NBCUniversal Formats, part of Universal International Studios, a division of Universal Studio Group, which licenses the title globally. The original show, produced by Universal Television and Broadway Video, debuted on NBC in 1954 and is the longest-running talk show in US history. It has been presented by a number of comedians including Steve Allen, Johnny Carson, Conan O'Brien and current host Jimmy Fallon. Central TV's Mongolian version, produced in-house, will feature celebrity interviews, comedy sketches, musical performances, viral games and surprises. Headquartered in Ulaanbaatar, Central TV was founded in 2021 and features programming such as dating series Love by the Sea 24/7. The broadcaster has also previously adapted hit international formats such as That's My Jam and The Masked Singer. Ganbold said: 'It has been my childhood dream to host The Tonight Show and I'm beyond thrilled to see my vision come to life. 'Becoming the first global adaptation of The Tonight Show marks a historic milestone, not just for Mongolia's media industry, but for our cultural relations between the US and Mongolia. 'It's a great honour and responsibility we proudly carry forward. We can't wait to entertain our local audience with The Tonight Show with our Mongolian flavour soon.' Linfield Ng, VP of format sales and production at NBCUniversal Formats, said: 'This is a landmark moment for The Tonight Show, one of television's most iconic and enduring brands. 'Bringing it to Mongolia with our partners at Central TV is something we are incredibly proud of. Jimmy Fallon has been a true champion of the format's global potential and we are thrilled to see the first international version come to life.

Mo Gilligan 'has secret child with model and expecting second with girlfriend'
Comedian and TV presenter Mo Gilligan is reported to have secretly fathered a child earlier this year following a short-term relationship with model Selina Christoforou. In addition, he is now said to be expecting another baby with his current partner, wellness influencer Taia Tulher, who is due in just a matter of weeks. According to The Sun, the Masked Singer judge, 37, had a brief romance with Christoforou in 2023, after the pair connected via social media. Their son, named Rudi, was born in January 2024. While Gilligan has not publicly commented on the reports, sources claimed to the publication he sees the child 'semi-regularly.' 'Selina found out she was pregnant in May last year,' a source told The Sun. 'It was a surprise for them both… but she chose to have the baby, and she absolutely adores him.' The comedian, who first gained attention through viral online comedy clips before landing primetime TV gigs, has reportedly been in a relationship with Tulher for nearly two years. While the couple has not confirmed their relationship publicly, it's believed they now live together in London and are preparing for the arrival of their child in the coming weeks. In a Mother's Day Instagram post in March, Tulher shared her pregnancy news with a poetic caption, though she did not name her partner. 'Today, I carry the love that made me… and the love I've only just begun to understand,' she wrote. The comedian previously dated actress Sophie Wise for four years, before their relationship ended in late 2022. Around the same time, reports surfaced that he had joined celebrity dating app Raya. Despite a few career setbacks in 2023 – including the end of The Lateish Show after four series and the cancellation of his BBC programme That's My Jam – Gilligan remains a familiar face on UK screens. Alongside his role as a judge on The Masked Singer, he is a regular on Celebrity Gogglebox and has co-hosted The Big Narstie Show. He has also been candid about his mental health challenges over the years. In a recent episode of Jamie Laing's Great Company podcast, Gilligan discussed the emotional toll of sudden fame and financial success, revealing that therapy played a key role in helping him reconnect with himself. More Trending 'I lost myself… I got the big cheque, but I wasn't in the happiest place,' he said. 'I didn't cry in my twenties. I put up a wall. And when I got depressed, it all came out.' In 2022, Gilligan used his BAFTA TV Awards acceptance speech to thank Channel 4 for giving him a platform during a difficult time in his life: 'When I got offered a show, my mental health wasn't in the best place,' he said. 'Channel 4 let me be myself and bring Black boy joy to the screens.' Representatives for Gilligan have been contacted for comment. Got a story?
