    Jonathan Ross was just about bearable, but I'd rather eat broken glass than put up with screaming giggly Norton.

    The BBC has confirmed that Irish-born comedian Graham Norton will replace Jonathan Ross as presenter of its prime-time Friday night TV show.
    Speaking at the Edinburgh Television Festival, BBC One controller Jay Hunt confirmed Mr Norton would commence his new show from October 22nd.
    "Graham's show has gone from strength to strength since moving to BBC One and I'm sure the audience will love his unique blend of comedy and entertainment on a Friday night," she said.

    I couldn't disagree with you more. Love Norton.

    I don't mind Norton, he's quite good at what he does. I wonder if he'll manage to keep the high calibre guests that Ross was used to getting. Hope he does well.

    Graham and Dara leading the BBC.... who would have thought it.

    Ah no, why give it to Norton, he already has a show. Give it to someone who is reletively new, i'm tired of seeing the same old faces on TV. I want a new breath of fresh air
