I find all this very confusing.

I took "Jimmy" to be a diminutive of "James" at first, even though it's
longer. Except I've never heard him called anything but "James." Maybe his
mum calls him that? But now I see where you're coming from...

Except, if it was "Scottish Conan Guy" before then surely it should be
"English Seth" or whatever. Scotland is *still* part of Britain, and if
your're going to make the distinction for Craig Ferguson, then you really
need to be consistent.

Incidentally, I'm still a little surprised that no UK network has picked
this show up yet. I almost wonder if they're preventing a UK sale until the
show has properly bedded in? Otherwise I'd have thought that there'd be
enough demand for a Corden show in the UK.

[On the other hand, no UK network has ever stuck with *any* imported US
late night talk show in the UK. At the moment CNBC Europe airs edited
versions of Fallon at weekends, and the British version of TruTV airs Conan
in the small hours, helpfully providing zero information in the EPG, and
being completely out of kilter from everything else on the channel. I did
spend some time hunting down the Cuban edition though - having seen him
promote it on The Daily Show, just before Comedy Central Extra dropped
*that* show in favour of more repeats of Friends and Sex and the City.]
