Virgin 1 buys UK Chuck rights.
The Virgin 1 television channel has purchased the British rights to tun the first season of WBITV comedy show Chuck. It has been a hit on American television where it is shown on NBC, Chuck stars actor Zachary Levi that becomes a spy, but only after accidentally managing to store all the CIA's secrets in his head. Sounds slightly stupid but Chuck is a comedy after all!
Amy Barham who works for the Virgin 1 channel said "Both action-packed and hilarious, Chuck is the perfect show for Virgin 1's audience. We are thrilled to have secured the show as part of our 2008 line up." It will be interesting to see if Chuck does as well on British TV as it has done on American where it was averaging 8 million viewers per show.
