I tuned into Graham Norton this morning & heard much of the show. I think he is settling in. Not at all bad. the best Saturday Brunch on 2 has been for a while. Anyone else tune in

Yes, I like him too. About on a par with Ross, and far better than any of the recent stands-ins (especially the awful Kielty).

Listened to a bit yesterday, not bad; for some reason though his speaking voice always reminds me of Derek Nimmo!

Started listening to Graham but getting increasingly irritated! In the end i turned over to Magic
I think I'll give his show a wide birth. Come to think of it, i think Jazz have a good blues show saturdays. I may switch over to that!

He looked stupid doing some dancing tips with Pamela Armstrong on his Friday night show. Some gay men don't mind, but he shied away from touching her, but he did.

But he did? Or he didn't?

Why is Annie Lennox on Graham Norton's show - again! she was only on Radio 2 a few weeks back promoting her new CD... is the Beeb really so short of guest ideas??

I think the whole of the BBC book in these guests to appear on every single radio and tv show in one full swoop.

It's the PR agency bookers who do the rounds and hook in as many producers/editors as possible.

One of the reasons I dislike BBC radio and much of TV these says. It's one big promotional vehicle.
