Last night’s episode of The Graham Norton Show had viewers in stitches as some of the world’s funniest comics brought their comedic genius to the chat show. From hilarious stand-up routines to amusing anecdotes, the evening was filled with uproarious laughter.
The show kicked off with the ever-charismatic Graham Norton interviewing Kevin Hart, who is not only a stand-up superstar but also a comedian adored by audiences worldwide. Kevin shared a hilarious story about performing at a seafood festival, where telling jokes amidst the sound of cracking crabs proved to be quite challenging. The crowd’s reactions ranged from the frustration of not being able to open a crab to a disheartening “oh no” from an older lady.
Next up was Simon Pegg, known for his roles in Star Trek and other blockbuster movies. Simon revealed his love for Star Trek by confessing to collecting memorabilia from the iconic series, including Spock’s ears. The audience was thrilled when Graham surprised Simon with his very own Gorn head from the original series.
Kristen Wiig, famous for her role in Bridesmaids, shared some amusing behind-the-scenes moments from the film. She recalled a scene involving a visit to a gentlemen’s club and a strip club, where the performers wore unusual costumes, reminiscent of The Matrix. The confusion and hilarity escalated as the dancers tried to replicate Neo’s iconic back bend move with the help of hidden ropes.
Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon from Saturday Night Live brought their comedic chemistry to the talk show. The two talented comedians shared stories about their time on the show and their friendship. Leslie hilariously mistook Kate for Kate Middleton when they first met, leading to an amusing exchange.
Dame Joan Collins, the legendary actress, joined the conversation and fearlessly addressed ageism in Hollywood. With her trademark wit, she discussed the difficulty for actresses of her age to find substantial roles. She even joked about her latest commercial endorsement for a product called Girly, designed to combat dry vagina, which drew laughter and applause from the audience.
The audience was then treated to a special appearance by the one and only Robin Williams. As Robin brought his incomparable energy and spontaneity to the stage, the show took an unexpected turn. With the help of an enthusiastic audience member named Nick, Graham and Robin transformed the show into a hilarious radio roadshow, complete with jingles, shout-outs, and even Robin’s signature impressions.
