News Image
Channel 4 is set to air a live US Presidential debate later this month.

As the first of three presidential debates scheduled to take place, both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton will go against one another at Hofstra University, Hempstead, New York as they bid to become the next President of the United States.

The 90-minute debate will be presented by Matt Frei and produced by ITN Productions, in what is expected to be a global event.

The broadcast will follow on from three Channel 4 films documenting the rise of Donald Trump, from the beginning of the primaries to Republican nomination.

Channel 4 Current Affairs Commissioning Editor, George Waldrum said: "This has been a US election like no other with phenomenal public interest. Everyone wants to know if Trump can really pull off a shock victory. We're excited to bring what could be a pivotal moment in both Clinton and Trump's bid to be the next President, to a UK audience."

The debate will be broadcast at 2am BST on Tuesday, 27 September.
