It's become my stable of Thursday nights to sit and watch the Graham Norton Show.

It's a hilarious show! The Graham Norton fellow is hilarious in that very (a bit gay) british way that brits often are, the guests are usually amazing and the show just... works.

Tonight the guests were the two actors from the 80s show "Hart to Hart", Robert Wagner and the other woman. So much nostalgia, they've gotten really, really old, but damn they were fun. They had flown in fans from around the world. A German girl with the thickest accent ever that Graham Norton completely ruined and some crazy American woman berating the actors for some random story ending in an old episode.

Last week it was Martin Sheen and him doing West Wing impersonations.

Anyone else watch and what do you think?

Just to point out that Norton is VERY gay... and mostly Irish.


Not that the two points are connected

[Cougar]

I'd have said 100% gay and 100% Irish, that is to say 0% British

Please, anyone living within England, Ireland, Scottland, Wales, Australia, New Zealand, Tasmania, etc. are british. You have funny accents that aren't American sounding... so you're british.

I watch it when i go to the gf's house, her parents love it.

The shows pretty damn funny.

In fairness, if we spoke to you, you'd have a funny accent that isn't American sounding. Welcome to being British!

PS Graham Norton is one of the most annoying people on TV...

Imagine me urinating in your face. Now I'm letting out a long, rasping fart. It smells a little of egg. This is my response to you. Swedish motherfucker.

Graham Norton....Sperm Sporkin

All the same to me, I confess. I don't watch popular news in the States; I definitely don't watch foreigners' news. I really couldn't give a shit.

yeah probs not the best thing to say apttorian that we are all British, you meant it in jest but some people here in Ireland dont liketo hear those things,especially with the marching season coming up!!

What's with the Irish and their complete inability to use proper grammar? Is it a cultural thing? Is it the beer you're fed from the cradle? Is it the potatoes?

Hard to read post is hard to read.

[caladanbrood]

I understood what he meant. Must be a british thing

Just for you, from now on I will try and refer to the Irish as "The Potato People".

[Thelomen Toblerone]

"Navvies" is a term they like to be referred to, iirc.

Lol. Is there a more gay man on British tv?

Graham Norton is alright, he has good guests on his show. I liked his character in Father Ted, although I can't remember who he was.

Alan Carr, that unfunny bastard. Worse than Richard Simmons.

[Aptorian]

For a second there I thought you meant Jimmy Carr and I was going to kill you to death, Illy. But I looked up this Alan Carr... he is pretty damn gay. Why do flaming homosexuals feela need to use that voice and strange manurismes?

All british people seem a bit gay Mezla, it's that strange fashion sense and funny accent. I think it has something do with how polite british people are when you meet them.

Also, you're a nation of tea drinkers, poofters the lot of you.

In fairness, Jimmy Carr also comes across as rather... effeminate, from time to time.
