Anyone watching Graham Norton?

Cher 😍
What a line up tonight.

A relation has met Tom Hanks at a film premiere. Said he's fab.

I love Cher 💓

Yes, that was what I found very amusing! And that he was accepting his ‘junior’ place. Plus that everyone was giving Cher her ‘grande dame’ space, and squishing Timothée nearly off the other end of the sofa!

it was good, missed the beginning
willy wonka looks an impressive film

i agree, graham norton is a fantastic host

So was it HG that JR was talking about? He freely admits to being a grumpy bastard which takes the sting out of it.

i thought it was clooney

i have stopped watchng graham norton as i am usually tired,
then regret it

It was a good show. I like GN as a host and was a bit worried by the crappy P Diddy episode. I thought the poorness of that show was signalling the end. But it was just a blip it seems. Also happy any week goes by when we don’t have to watch Miriam Margoyles’ performative unfunny ‘bluntness’.

Gawd, I love Julia Roberts. She's one of those people you can't stop looking at, she's so beautiful. Every time Pretty Woman/Notting Hill are on I find myself watching just to gawp at her.
Both her and Taylor Swift in London at the moment.
The Wonka film looks worth seeing just for Hugh Grant as an Oompa Loompa, the trailer is a joy.

I was heading to bed when I saw who was on. It was great, they all played so well off each other.

Graham is really good at knowing when to let the guests take the lead and how to make sure each guest gets a specific mention for their project. He has matured as a presenter where as JR feels like he is trying to be young and hip.

I am old enough to remember JR’s first show on Channel 4 and him actually being viewed as the young upstart who was changing the chat show format! Not so much these days, I do prefer Graham.
Loved Cher’s obvious affection for him, talking about his ‘sex show’ and telling Julia that GN’s was THE British chat show. She seemed so sincere, which isn’t always the case with big US stars doing the promotion trail.

Guessing Cher was talking about "Mask"?

Last time Cher was on she was only interested in talking to Graham about his role as ft Noel in father Ted. It was hilarious. I think they are genuine friends

I know, Cher loves GN. 😍

I enjoyed it. I loved how they were all massive stars and all bow down to Cher 🤣 I think Graham is a great host. Seems to put guests at ease but also keep it all on track. I can’t imagine it’s that easy with some of the guests who like to chat.

I really want to know who both Cher and Julia were talking about in their stories now.

I suspect that Cher was talking about Peter Bogdanovich, director of Mask.
He slated her in an interview in 2019.
I guess she didn't name him as he died last year but I'd be amazed if it wasn't him she was referring to, as they famously did not get on.

I know! You should never gossip if you can't fill in the blanks.

Who's HG?

Oh Hugh Grant 🙈

What a show! Cher and Julia Roberts both look absolutely amazing. They are 77 and 56! I have a maternal crush on Timothee Chalamet, what a sweet, talented boy he is. I could have watched at least another hour of them all.

see tom hanks hand was shaking holding the feather

Sweet talented boy of almost 28 @ShelleyCarpenter ! I thought he was about 19.

I saw that too @WillowTit I hope he's ok.

I noticed that too, it may just be the aging process or other fairly routine causes.

Great show. How does get such fab guests together? That young actor was new to me. Loved him and think he will go far indeed.
