Just catching up. I'm enjoying it.
I love Ian McKellen as a guest. He is always entertaining.

Reese looks like she has not aged imho

Got round to seeing the latest one at last and I must say it was a classic in my view. Good guests, great host; witty, clever banter, red chair, the show flew by, and I was entirely entertained.

Hande hoche!

Thought Reese looked great on it.

Absolutely excellent episode last night. The big surprise and delight (I nearly said delicious, but I stopped myself) was Lady Anne Glenconner. if you haven’t seen, I thoroughly recommend it

I have to agree it was a great show with a good mix of guests.

I have no idea who this Lady Anne Glenconner is but she was absolutely hilarious. One of the best shows in ages.

Loved Moss of course, always funny

Obvious Desperate Breakfasts

I agree, OP, and it pains me to say that because I really like Norton. It drives me mad how unsubtle he is about pulling the story out of guests that his researcher briefed him on or whatever. I wish he would just let things flow a bit more and be a bit more off the cuff. He needs to take a career break or something. Head off and travel the world for a few years, Graham!

And the red chair needs to go. It is awful.

100% agree. It's like signing up to be bullied on TV. I turn off when he announces it.

alan partridge aha

He could get rid of the Z list uk comedians who invariably are on. They usually have far to much to say and of no real interest.
They will always be self deprecating to try and make up for their lowly standing, on the show.

Him and his private jet

You would think Ricky Gervais would throw a suit on, very lazy.

It's very seldom that I wear suits to work:)

Everyone having a great laugh until this massive boring ego Lewis Hamilton walks in, for no discernible reason at all. All the atmosphere has gone out of the room...

I haven't swen the show. But having seen him before. Ricky laughs so loudly at such stupid things it's wmbarrising. Hamilton. That vain; silly b ugger. Waa he wearing chains and rings and a baseball cap?

He recently became the 2nd most successful driver of all time.. hardly on for "no reason" . Is essentially the face of the sport at the moment and its greatest marketing tool. Him being British and being on a British chat show... Well I never

Meanwhile over in Dublin 4 we give a standing ovation to a guy after losing a world cup quarter in essentially an 8 team sport!

Schmidt is interesting, engaging, entertaining. Hamilton, well, isn't...

Haha BOD is the most boring PC guy in the planet yet he'll be on the LLS every bloody year. The majority of guests on Norton's show are mundane A listers

Hamilton is photogenic, has millions of social media followers, is on course to become the greatest of all time in his sport - while I respect his demeanour and fashion choices won't appeal to your average internet forum poster, it's all about ratings and people will tune in to see well known faces

Dont like Hamilton, but I thought he came across ok and he had interesting stuff to say. Hugely successful man and looks set to continue for the foreseeable.

Ricky is a tool. Hamilton is a 6 times WDC champion. There is only one other driver in the world with more titles than him. So say what you like but the man is driven and determined to be the best all the time.

I disagree I find most of them have very interesting lives. There is the odd boring one but not as bad as the LLS.
I much prefer watching the Graham Norton show over The LLS Show as it is so boring , predictable and depressing most of the time now. It seem to be the only thing the plank presenting it knows about.
