Graham Norton Shares How the Red Chair Flip Accidentally Became a Show Staple

[@bloodymarvelous4790]

The whole format of the Graham Norton show is perfect. All the guests are there all the time, they get to interact, and Graham sets each and every one up to win by guiding them into their best anecdotes. And the booze helps to loosen them up.

[@ChopperPBM]

And they get the best bookings too, every other show is way down the list.

[@SylviusTheMad]

And they shoot well over an hour of footage, and edit it down to the best possible show.

[@ReneeParmleyKennedy]

Yes!!!!

[@bobdow149]

And Miriam Margolyes might be a guest!

[@meme-tg6hr]

It's the booze before they come out and chat. Here in the USA it's pretty standard format - monologue, 2 guests, one at a time a performance by a musical guest. Some guests are zzz 😴.

[@nyls1717]

It’s amazing how Graham immediately takes over the interview. He’s got a kind of charm that’s unmatched on tv

[@pollenyyc]

And that Seth knows to let him, because Seth's job is to make his guest look fantastic (which takes zero effort with Graham).

[@javiruiz8365]

And he is not political! This ruined it for me. Always negative. That’s why I love Graham.

[@dethlokprime8655]

When is Graham going to have Seth on his show? I’d love to see Seth unfettered by American broadcast standards.

[@pikkutaiteilija]

man Graham Norton is one of my favourite people ever! it's so hard not to love him. He is hilarious, insightful, conversational,engaging, he's the full package!

[@VickieDStanton]

Graham's laugh delights me. I love hearing it in the background on his show.

[@naryanr]

One of the secrets to the smoothness of Graham's interviews, I think, apart from the alcohol, is that he asks a fairly direct question, then continues talking for like 10 more seconds before letting the person answer, what that does is makes it feel to the audience like he's cutting right to the point, minimal fluff, but also gives the person lots of time to prepare the answer, which makes it feel like Graham is always helping the person out with the interview, which, like the alcohol, and the multiple guests at once, takes the edge off everything.

[@shaddyponton2825]

american hosts are terrible they just read the stupid cards whether theres flow or not, look at seth right now asking dumb questions. Graham generates rapport, let's guess interact or lead where they want the conversation to go , like a regular conversation with friends,

[@chiedu90069]

Graham said that anyone can be a talk show host, but I say that no one could be as uniquely charming and hilarious as Graham Norton!

[@sitcomsTV]

It is true anyone can do it. But no one can do it like him. He is unike and to me the best.

[@TheJustineCredible]

I've loved watching Graham as an Interviewer, but seeing him being Interviewed...how delightful! What a fantastic guest!! That was a great interview! And I'll repeat what others have said: Now it's time for Seth to go on Graham's show!! Love you both! Thank you for those laughs! LOVE IT!

[@NicolaMulholland]

Graham's rant about the mug of water is so Irish 😂😂😂 tea/coffee please lads 😂

[@cutapacka4]

As with all things in American Talk Show customary practices, almost everything you see on stage is done because... tradition. My guess is the mugs likely started under Carson when guests were actively drinking on stage, but perhaps they wanted to conceal the extent of the drinking to the audiences/censors. Now a days no PR person lets celebs drink, but yet they still do the coffee mugs. Funny when things never get questioned.

[@Yvolve]

@@cutapacka4 It's much simpler: continuity. The mug doesn't show how much is in the mug, so they can edit without there being a glass of water that magically refills and empties itself. It helps that it doesn't show what is in the mug but the way people drink water, tea, coffee, is different to beer, wine, spirits and people will most likely notice. Nobody sips water from a mug as you don't take a full swig from hard liquor.

[@Tao_Tology]

@@Yvolve Mostly the guests don't drink out of the mugs at all and they sit out of shot.

[@lollymagic87]

I didn’t even realise the drink difference thing and reasoning until now.. 🤭 whoops! Going to watch more closely now! (Being from Australia, I just realised I don’t even remember what they offer, as I’m usually watching international talk shows, so now I’m going to look after finishing watching this!) 😂 I’ve never been a big hot drink liker myself.. can’t even remember last time I had a hot drink! I’m not really big on soups either, but occasionally will give having soup another go… I have so many mugs, as well as glasses… occasionally I’ll put soup or icecream in my mugs or some blueberries.. just to give the mugs some time out of the cupboard! 😂 Some others are on display around the kitchen! 🤷‍♀️

[@RaymondHng]

@@Yvolve On David Colbert's show, he was serving drinks in a glass and you can see the break in continuity of the liquid level in the glass between camera shots.

[@StaceWah]

Looove that Seth's show is slowly introducing more and more of the British comedy stable into the American diet

[@zippydj]

Yeah 100% agree! This pretty much just confirmed for me Seth's comedy tastes and mine must be aligned, cause he's the one who hosts so many incredible British comedians I love.

[@Mugdorna]

Graham is Irish BTW. And yes, his show is highly successful and based/created in the UK.

[@zippydj]

@@Mugdorna Yes, good reminder! I should say yeah he's got the pulse of more than just British comedians, cause I believe Aisling Bea's been on it as well? So yeah thanks for reminding me.

[@leodegas7731]

One of the best talk show interviewers ever. He asks his questions and then steps aside. Then asks another question that's relevant to the conversation. All with humor. Seth is like that with guests that he knows well. He lets them finish. Good interview.

[@PoppyCorn144]

The difference between him and Fallon is jarring, especially given they both came from SNL; I really thought they’d be more similar.

[@kasiazdrojewska3616]

What's even funnier for me in his story about starting the show after the announcement of pope's death is that we have a rather common catchphrase in Poland (where that pope was from) "...and then I walk in, dressed all in white." that originated from a comedy and usually is meant to say that you appear great due to terrible surroundings. Fits seamlessly here XD

[@DanceintheRaine666]

YES i intuited THAT must have had SOME ADDITIONAL SIGNIFICANCE (beyond the obvious fact that the Pope famously WEARS WHITE). Thank you for sharing.

[@paulbickford8715]

My favourite Red Chair story is by the young woman from Derry talking about a car, which she pronounced 'char'. And her sarcasm to the guests who could not understand her accent.

[@lindaj171]

My favourite story was the woman who was riding an Arabian stallion in the desert. A group of wild horses approached and a mare caught the eye of her stallion who pricked up his ears and other parts apparently. She felt she was safest in the saddle during the 'deed' and when she finished her story one of the guests said "Thank God you weren't on the mare!"

That was one of the best! I also love when graham goes into the audience sometimes, the way he treats the regular crowd is just as amazing as his s guests

[@skoodledoo]

I was one of the first people on the Red Chair, it was the episode with Ronnie Corbett (Ricky Gervais was the other guest). They emailed audience members to see if anyone had any funny stories and I was picked. We sat and watched most of the show backstage until it was time. When they threw the switch on screen, crew literally pushed the chair up and back from below and I had to quickly roll off for them to get the next person on. I think there was about 9 or 10 of us telling stories. Sadly only a few made it to screen, of which I was not one. I did get to meet Ronnie and Ricky backstage before the show though, I love Ronnie!

[@bladepanthera]

@@mburland So many funny episodes and classic lines: "It's Ireland's largest lingerie section, or so I understand." "I hear that you're a racist now, Father." 😂

[@souliseband]

Another difference between the 2 shows is that Graham has his guests sitting at the same level as him and not lower than the host. Here, the host is looking down on the guest which makes the interview more formal and not like friends casually getting together which is part of what makes Graham's show so fun.

[@IDiggPattyMayonnaise]

Seth is singlehandedly bringing every British talk show personality/guest on his show. If he doesn't have Lee Mack or David Mitchell on soon I'll be livid

[@grahamcookson5937]

Are the American audience ready for the incredible rants of David Mitchell, or the sarcasm and boyish charm of Lee Mack though? 😉 If they do go on Seth's show, I hope they come as a duo. They are so funny together on Would I Lie To You 😂

Another British talk show, The Dame Edna Experience, was doing chair flips almost 40 years ago. It was absolutely hilarious!

[@DanceintheRaine666]

Thank you for that. We never watched her, although, after realizing very few of her age peers "got" British Humour predisposed her to thinking "British Humour" was PERHAPS an "Acquired Taste". A lifetime in Canada (all my forefathers from both sets of grandparents back were purportedly of British descent ie born in Britian) TRYING in vain to explain WHY SHE LAUGHED convolusively when watching British Humour whereas others SAT THERE...bewildered and HOSTILE (in many cases) asking, "WHAT's SO FUNNY?" lead HER to indoctrinate we three to the humour she LOVED. At the time, the "Carry On" movies were abundant, but due to the "risqué", "naughty" or "dirty" (sexual inuendo) themes, my Mum ~ Elizabeth Anne Margaret [Very British Maiden Name] ~ protected we "littles" from that "adult content"....until the day we wandered in...drawn by her riotous laughter. Unbeknownst to HER we stood there ~ unlaughing ~ as she continued to HOWL at the "dirty" bits unfolding before her. We made our presence known by LAUGHING ALOUD at the "age-appropriate" British Humour. More "dirty" humour followed and we ASKED HER, "Mummy, what is so FUNNY?" and then, she realized we had no (remembered) life experience which would ALLOW us to understand the "dirty" bits...so all such humour (so to say) "Flew Over Our Heads". I have an ADDITIONAL (and very funny) tale to share álà me "discovering" my OWN LITTLES had unusual senses of humour in their own right...but this is overlong...so I'll save it and share IF the Op HAPPENS to see this AND RESPONDS. ❤

Yes IT IS. I can easily ~ with my "medical diagnoses ~ get powerful analgesics, narcotics, anti-inflamatories, muscle relaxants, gabapentin and OTHER "exogenic" pharma prescribed due to me. I Rejected all such non-endogenous pharma decades ago, although I gained some relief from the debilitating pain of a chronic disability and the added fun of stress-causal migraines & cluster headaches throughout MY LIFE. Later, when the STRESS of my life SKYROCKETED and I developed well-nigh CONSTANT migraines (Im a medical anomoly) AND, atop those chronic challenges, Facial Nerve Pain and VERTIGO (which first erupted in 2011)...I refused BOTOX and all other PRESCRIBED (and illegal) pharma.... A sweet young man ~ 30 years my juniour ~ BUFFED my endogenous pharma by MAKING ME LAUGH...FOR SIX SOLID HOURS...the vassopressin, oxcytocin, the dopamine and the ENDORPHINS he helped me access broke that HORRIFIC PAIN. As was his plan. ❤ I have AVOIDED the "escalating suicidal ideation" which plagues those who contract Facial Nerve Pain...and end up TAKING THEIR OWN LIVES...as I use my own PHARMA rather than any other "drugs". It is AWESOME. ❤

I couldn't have cared less about the car, he had me at 'single'. Within seconds an attractive man carrying a 'man purse' appeared. The first thought through my head when I saw him was "Not my type, besides he's probably gay" so I wrote him off. It would have been helpful if, before that meeting, I had had some experience playing Graham Norton's segment of "European or Gay?" Turns out he was a European immigrant to Canada, not gay, and also very persistent so we just celebrated our 40th Wedding anniversary. 🤗

Might I suggest others check out (in addition to the suggestions offered by others) ANY G.N. Dame Miriam Margolyes visit...my FAVOURITE featuring Will. I. Am... Another much loved episode was the Sir Patrick Stewart's "cirumcision" story... He GRAHAM so GENUINELY LIKES most of his guests and is GENUINELY INVESTED in SHOWCASING their humour he does NOT dominate the conversations but rather FACILITATES and delightedly provokes which relaxes his guests and brings the silliness forth. His EMPATHY and COMPASSION, his love of non-maliscious humour make him UNPARALLELLED as does his...authenticity. I love this guy. Alcohol aside, he makes people WANT to share their foilbles...he CONNECTS and ENTANGLES instantly Imo, Norton's INNER QUALITIES are far more of an INTOXICANT than the alcohol...he is a GENUINELY good man.

Graham Norton's talk show is the best. I don't understand why no one in America has not taken his format.

[@pd4165]

They've taken the format?

@@palco22 The Beeb doesn't have to constantly break up programmes for ads every few minutes so they can actually have an hour-long (longer, before it's edited down) show. No US TV broadcaster is ever going to lose out on all those ad breaks.

@Tao_Tology PBS ?

[@thesoul2sqeeze]

The US is far too behind the rest of the world , that's why their talk shows are stale

Yanks are simple

They started with mugs years ago to hide the booze and told everyone it was coffee
