One of the most REAL women you'd ever meet in Hollywood. No bull shit, wickedly funny and incredibly smart. She was a fairly popular Hollywood script doctor too, often being asked to read over comedy scripts and revise/tighten them up a bit.

this is so sad, in this interview she talks about wanting to move to England but not doing it because her daughter was still a child and she didn't want to separate her from her American dad... Carrie just bought a London house a few months ago since Billie is all grown up now and she finally could have made her dream come true but she died 😢

[@laurahall2710]

Now she has ALL the houses in London

[@Revelian1982]

That IS sad. God bless her soul.

[@IrishEyes1989]

This is pure gold. Two comic geniuses together in one room. And look at how young and adorable they both were!

[@Revelian1982]

I wouldn't class either of them as comedic geniuses, but they're both very funny.

Great chemistry! Norton's presenting style hasn't changed a bit.

[@Giskard1000]

Totally agree!

[@Revelian1982]

He makes fewer references to his sexuality these days, which is a good thing. We should be judging him as a comedian and presenter, rather than a gay comedian and presenter.

[@thomasfleig1184]

Talk about eerie when he was talking about a woman having a heart attack, on a plane, at the beginning.

It is extremely eery that Carrie Fisher essentially heard how she was going to die in the opening monologue of this show.

[@moewjoew3383]

Well she didn't die on the plane but she did 4 days after being in IC in a hospital in LA. But indeed its creepy how coincidence can happen. Right before she left to london to then take a plane to LA she was in my home country Belgium visiting the city of Bruges. Somehow she loved the place but man did I had tears when I heard the news.

[@slcRN1971]

MoewJoew : from what I read and heard, she did not ever ‘wake up’ again after the heart attack on that plane. The defibrillator was used yet she remained unresponsive. CPR continued while she was being carried off the plane, then continued by the paramedics and she was intubated (placed on a respirator) at the hospital. Her mother (Debbie) gave information out about Carrie NOT any medical staff, very telling.

[@topgurl9313]

Carrie was the best guest on So Graham Norton in terms of the internet part of the show

[@carolineh1790]

You can really see here what a beautiful, fun, naughty, genuine and sincere person she was. Which is why everyone had a soft spot for her.

This interview is when Carrie became close friends with Graham, they had dinner after it. She'd never seen a talk show host push the boundaries like Graham did back in his early days.

[@johnking5174]

The one reason why Graham could push boundaries was the fact he was employed by Channel 4, the British channel which was created in 1982 to be unique. Channel 4 could air far more adult material than BBC or ITV, and so Graham had utter freedom.

[@RoI-ve7qg]

This was the transition of 70's to Current. You can kinda see her old face and what she looks like now.

+Son “Mini John Boyega” Goten I wish they'd ignored prequels and instead made the next episode in 1999 - Leia with her Jedi skills etc. etc. Instead, they all seem a bit old in TFA :(

[@RoI-ve7qg]

They're supposed to be old. Plus the prequels were good imo.

[@vladimirimp]

Sure they're supposed to be old now, but if they'd made them in 1999 then the story would have had them younger. And I'm not bashing PT, just that they could have waited since the cast was (almost) all new. Whereas getting to TFA 30 years later, the actors you need, have aged 30 years.

[@lizzie3670]

Really fascinating, and her voice is transitioning here too.

Darth Skygamer why would it?

[@BournetoRead]

Tim Jones sometimes as people age their voice changes, especially with performers etc. it’s been 21 years and Graham has aged, while well, quite a bit- so it’s surprising his voice hasn’t hanged even a little

What a bizarrely prophetic opener considering the fate that befell Carrie Fisher.

[@LinGin91]

I'm talking about the heart attack on a plane -- very first line.

[@LinGin91]

That's okay. But yeah, a CG image of any character in a movie with even a small fraction of Star Wars' success is pretty much a given these days.

Wow, she looked so different! Her voice was deeper than it been at the time she played Leia but it had really changed by the time she did Force Awakens. I think this interview can make us appreciate that she must have been through a lot somewhere or other than changed her.

Wait, what? Grahm Norton makes his Show since the 90ies and i explored his presence and work lets say 3 years ago. Oh my gosh, i missed so much.

[@leokorn1629]

@@5thPhoenix you are right.

[@sparrowpriest9608]

There was an episode he did with Linda Hamilton which at one pint he called an actual super fan of hers that incidentally also was into balloon sex and he had her play with a balloon while talking to this guy which you could physically actually hear him moaning on the air. That's the most awesome thing I ever saw I think. His show was so out there compared to everything else at the time its crazy to think on it now being where he is, you'd never expect that

[@etocadet]

He had a show on channel 4 that was initially once a week. Then Went to 5 nights a week Monday-Friday. It was after big brother and he’d always open with a hot take on it. I believe it was the One where Jade Goody was on it (I think he played a big role in getting people to love her). His content back then was very sexual and edgy compared to now.

[@alphabetaxenonzzzcat]

Carrie appeared on a few U.K. TV chatshow back in the 1990s(Clive Anderson on Channel 4, Clive James and Graham’s show on Channel 4). She still has that youthful look to her. It’s also I think before we experienced the infamous prequels.

[@glgl1472]

You know to me Carrie Fisher is a emblematic character of what can happen when you have a lot of baggage and cumulative aging. I don't really mean to say that in a bad way but look at her here and just fast forward like 16 years. She looks like a completely different person not only physically but emotionally and spiritually the last time she was on The Graham Norton show she had a therapy dog for Christ's sake very sad. I really did like her even scarier we're the same age ... well now I'm older cuz she's dead

[@RonWylie-gk5lc]

His show is good in 2019 but he was brilliant in these early shows

[@jessica5497]

When you're are "invited" to the bbc primetime, you have to became less edgy and more family friendly so.. Makes sense

[@vincevirtua]

She still looked like Carrie and sounded (voice) like Carrie in '99. Something else went on after this.

[@MadBuckHunter74]

Yes it the electroshock therapy she had to help stop her clinical depression.

[@ytubeanon]

It almost seems like her personality transitioned into another person after year 2000 (was it shock therapy?), here she still seems to be in connection with her former self, i.e. original star wars era

[@Giskard1000]

Totally agree.

[@stewsretroreviews]

I agree, she looked and sounded different a few yrs after this, I liked the old Carrie as she was here and before👍🏻

[@songbirdy]

ytubeanon I do think the shock therapy aged her and changed her.

She was always like that. She stopped giving a fuck about hiding it when she got older.

[@DrumsTheWord]

I need to find out what happened to my dear Carrie in the ten years or so after recording this. She seemed to age so quickly. And I don't mean that in a sexist way. She was always beautiful...now that's slightly sexist. Anyway, what happened to her voice for a start? It was such a dramatic change to her face as well. I wouldn't even mention it if I didn't think the change was striking. I miss her very much. I must read her books some time.

[@bletheringfool]

I think her septum in her nose was destroyed and affected her voice and face somewhat

[@bennypika3575]

you'd seem to age so quickly too after 60 years, Carries was only in her 20's during 70's.

[@herreguda6199]

Omg, I had completely forgotten this trend was a thing 😂

[@poppycock31185]

Norton hasn't changed at all as far as presenting goes. Obviously he has to tone things down on the BBC but he is still pretty much the same guy. I remember a lot of people used to not care too much for him back then but now he has won them over and is probably the best chatshow host in the country, especially now that Jonathan Ross has lost the thing he used to have that made me love his show. I am not a massive Star Wars fan but Carrie Fisher seemed like a wonderful person and it's sad that she is no longer with us.

[@johnking5174]

Unlike Jonathan Ross, Graham has become an international talk show legend. He is admired and loved especially by the Americans. Graham is a regular guest on their talk shows, and is friends with Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers especially, who have had him on their show many times. In fact Fallon appeared on Graham's show in return, even though Fallon is a virtual unknown in the UK. Jonathan is barely known here in the UK as his talk show is now a watered down, lukewarm version of his BBC show, sadly ITV have no other late night talk shows, they are simply keeping him on air because they have no alternative.

[@poppycock31185]

@John King I actually watch more American tv than UK tv and yeah I've seen Graham Norton appear on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. I have not seen him on Fallons show but that is because I can't stand to watch Jimmy Fallon fake laugh his way through each interview. I even saw Graham Norton on an episode of Colin Quinns Tough Crowd. It was surreal seeing Graham alongside Jim Norton and Patrice O'Neal. It must've been early on in Grahams visits to the states because he didn't quite manage to impress but to fair that show was not your typical comedy show format so Graham didn't do that bad considering.

[@Pulse2AM]
