The hit fly-on-the-wall show 'The Osbournes' will be shown on terrestrial television this autumn, after Channel 4 signed a deal thought to be worth several million pounds.
The broadcaster has been in negotiations for weeks with MTV, which has announced a string of deals with terrestrial channels around the world.
The warts and all show, which takes a look at the family life of Ozzy Osbourne, has taken the US by storm and gave MTV record viewing figures.
