Osbourne, Church plan chat show strategies

Sharon Osbourne and Charlotte Church are making plans to transform the world of chat shows.

TV's Mr Nasty Simon Cowell has agreed to produce Osbourne's new programme, which is expected to be officially announced by ITV later this month.

A source told The Sun, "Simon knows from his time on X Factor that Sharon can be bitchy - look at the way she treated poor Steve Brookstein. He wants her to transfer some of that to her new show.

"He’s told Sharon to be her usual spiky self. He doesn’t want it to fall into the same trap as Davina’s disastrous BBC1 show."

Meanwhile, Crazy Chick Charlotte Church wants to impose an age limit on guests for her new Channel 4 show.

"I won’t be having any old people - there’ll be people on there my age group appreciate," she explained. "In my dreams I hope to get the lush Brad Pitt - without Angelina of course!"
