Piers Morgan famously left ITV’s Good Morning Britain last year after a heated on-air spat with Alex Beresford, and the TV personality is finally returning to prime team TV this coming week. He has already teased viewers with a clip from the TalkTV show where he interviews former US President Donald Trump, who storms off the set, but in a new clip, Trump opens up about Vladimir Putin and how he would deal with the nuclear threat.
With less than a day until his new show premieres, viewers are wondering just how “uncensored” Piers will be.
In a brand new clip, fans see the TV personality grilling Trump about his connections to Putin.
Piers said: “So what would you do right now in Ukraine, if you were the President?”
Trump replied: “Putin uses the ‘N word’. I call it the ‘N word’. He uses the ‘N word’, the nuclear word all the time. That’s a no-no, you’re not supposed to do that. He uses it on a daily basis.

“And everybody’s so afraid, so afraid, so afraid. And as they’re afraid he uses it more and more. That’s why he’s doing the kind of things he’s doing right now.”
With the conflict between Russia and Ukraine continuing, refugees have fled their Ukrainian homeland to find temporary solace in neighbouring countries.
Trump continued: “That’s right. He’s preying off the fear.”
“He’s doing them because he thinks nobody’s gonna ever attack us. Because they’re all stupid, and they’re afraid to talk.”
The first interview clip that emerged saw the pair’s chat take a turn for the worse when Trump tried to take his microphone off and walk off of the set.
On the stormy clip, Piers commented on the ex-president’s apparent annoyance at the interview and said: “We haven’t even aired it yet, and he’s already released two furious statements… about a PROMO?!
“Take a chill pill, Mr President – it’s a great interview, even if you did lose your rag a bit.”
Trump’s reaction in the video and demand to “turn the camera off” has intrigued fans as to what else the interview will unearth.
Trump’s two statements said: “Piers Morgan, like the rest of the fake news media, attempted to unlawfully and deceptively edit his long and tedious interview.
“He wanted to make it look like I walked out on the interview when my time limit of 20 minutes went over by an hour.”
Viewers can see the full interview when it airs on Pier’s premiere show tomorrow evening.
Talk TV launches at 7pm on Monday, April 25, with Piers Morgan Uncensored airing at 8pm.
