The Graham Norton Show is known for its hilarious and unpredictable moments, and the latest episode of season 28 certainly did not disappoint. From embarrassing mishaps to unexpected surprises, the show had it all. Let’s dive into some of the most memorable moments from the Red Chair segment.
One of the standout stories came from Gail, who recounted a funny incident involving her youngest son. As a reception school student, he was learning how to spell words, and they had reached the letter “w.” The teacher challenged the students to come up with a word that starts with “w” and has an additional letter. Gail‘s son excitedly exclaimed, “Whip!” Much to everyone’s amusement, Gail explained that the whip was actually a souvenir from a bullfight in Spain, and the handcuffs were misplaced keys.
Darren, a resident of Queensland, Australia, shared a rather sticky situation he found himself in. While trying to fix model planes and cars before a New Year’s Eve party, he accidentally glued his head to a table. After a four-hour trip to the hospital, Darren had an interesting encounter with a doctor who asked about his predicament—a table stuck to his head!
Mike from the West Midlands had an amusing story about his wedding speech. As a surprise for his then-wife, he wrote to one of the show’s guests requesting a good luck message. Hugh Grant graciously responded and sent a message that said, “Mike‘s a lucky man.” Despite the divorce, Mike humorously mentioned that his glasses, with the good luck message attached, proved to be lucky indeed.
Nichola, a primary school teacher from Lincolnshire, shared a moment of embarrassment when she accidentally sat on her date’s hand.

It was certainly an awkward situation, but one that had everyone laughing.
Nina, a pediatric nurse from Washington, Ireland, recounted an incident where she had to attend to a motorbike accident. Kneeling down beside the injured man, she asked him where he was hurt. To her surprise, he responded, “You’re kneeling on my hand.” It was a hilarious misunderstanding that left everyone in stitches.
Yasmina, a nutritionist from London, had a giggle-worthy tale from her early marketing days. Spotting her boss with a piece of toilet paper hanging from his suit, Yasmina debated whether to tell him or let him walk around with the awkward accessory all day. Eventually, she mustered the courage to inform him, all while suppressing her laughter.
Jess, a physiotherapist from Melbourne, Australia, shared a rather amusing experience with a patient who had swollen testicles. In her haste to grab his shoes from under the bed, she accidentally encountered a painful mishap. The patient suddenly stood up, and she ended up with a swollen testicle hitting her head.
