Graham Norton

Brilliant show tonight. It's always better when there are no American guests on.

Lena Dunham is better looking than Anne Hathaway....imo.

Who cares what she looks like? She is an actress, not a model. Women seem to go on an awful lot about how unattractive they think Anne Hathaway is. If she is so unattractive why do you feel the need to comment on it? Maybe doing so makes you feel more attractive?

Matthew McConaughey is too much in love with his own idea of coolness and is quite happy to let other people say to him how cool he is. He likes to make people think he is chilled and laid back but yet when Norton interrupted his story about the dog bj and the mountain ram you could tell he was fairly annoyed and he got too annoyed too quickly.

He was pissed, it was funny.

I always thought Flanagan was a pain in the arse whenever I saw him on the countless so called comedy panel shows that populate the tv schedules of Channel 4 and BBC1, but I felt sorry for him this time around and he was genuinely funny, he did not deserve to have his story interrupted by the two daft buggers beside him.

The singer who hid her face was an idiot who spouted pretentious nonsense about not wanting to be famous. If she does not want to be famous then don't appear on chat shows hawking your new album love. An album I wont be buying any time soon, (its metal or nothing in my house).

Norton on the other hand was the same old same old when that guy from NI came on to tell his story. Jesus you would think Norton was ashamed to be Irish the way he carried on referring to double decker buses, lots of traffic, etc etc and the Jeremy Kyle joke was in bad taste too. Obviously Norton thinks little of the underclass that get paraded on that show and made to act like animals for the benefit and entertainment of other people.

I don't think I will watch again, I don't really care much for the fawning sycophantic treatment that chat show hosts mete out to Hollywood A listers week in week out.

Mickey Flanagan is generally accepted as one of the best comedians in the UK.

Sia's performance was strange but it is a great song so who cares.

Learn to take a joke about Ireland. And if he is the 'same old same old' why did you even bother watching? Watching the show would normally be diametrically opposed to someone who dislikes the show enough to post a misguided essay on everything they think wrong with it.

enough with the barrel of laughs comments any more cracks like that and I will report you.

'I will tell on you'. Nobody cares if you report someone for pointing out you are a malcontent and boring.

nice to see the keyboard warriors are out in force.

Signed the author of the essay complaining.

thrashmetalfan wrote: »

can Norton not just do without the cheap cracks whenever someone irish is on the red chair..

He does it to whoever is in the red chair, Irish or not, how has this escaped you? And it is funny, it is why people watch it, everybody loves the red chair, except of course those that hate everything about the show but watch it for some reason.

You really are a barrel of laughs.

I will pass, thanks.

Also, Ayoade is not funny, how long does it take awkward to become boring? I wonder what he is like when he is not 'on', possibly more boring I guess. Catherine Tate is common as muck. 'Am I bothered?', change the record.

Finally getting around to watching this.

Love SB, she didn't disappoint.

Holy moly, Annie Lennox is looking good for someone approaching 60 :eek:

I enjoyed the show tonight.

Aniston took Norton dregging up old stuff well enough

Tonight not sure of time though, late enough

11.50pm http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b04syhxs

Was Jeff Daniels actually not meant to be there on this weeks show as Graham clearly had no homework done on him. He just sat there for most of it saying nothing.

Seemed a bit odd alright..........Jim Carey was good though, seems like a good guy. Jude law is a really great guest, would like to have heard more from him. Bit of a waste to have him and Jeff daniels on and not hear a lot from them.
It was the same with Michael Keaton last week. I know he's a great dramatic actor but he's first and foremost a comedian and he's a genuinely funny guest. But Graham norton gave him relativley little time. Shame.

yeah i thought the same…


on another note - Jude law looked a bit rough - must have had a late night

Missed opportunity to ask him about the Newsroom ending. Shame.

Danny Dyer and Jamie Foxx seemed well drunk this week

Mark Ruffalo is on form tonight as well, i always thought he was quite subdued on previous shows.

Olivia Colman is usually an excellent guest. Very funny and down to earth, and a fantastic actress.

Tyrannosaur, if you can make it through the gruelling watch shows just what a fantastic actress she is, that and Hot Fuzz " nothing wrong with a bit of girl on girl"

I've yet to catch up on Broadchurch, as i heard she was very good in that, suprised a lot of people as i only knew her from Peep Show.

I remember she won 2 awards last year, was it the NTA?
She was on Graham's show after winning them, hadn't seen him make a fuss over her since GaGa, but she was very down to earth about it & probably hadnt realised on what was happening around her.

James McAvoy seems to be on this every week.

Seemed quite short a show last Friday on BBC
