"Pull the leaver Graham" Loved it. What was the story even about?

[@klatewilson5170]

lol I wish they'd get her back on, it's a terrible story but my fave one ever

[@thewhiteheart883]

i wish i can invite her for a dinner and spend all night listening to her stories ...

[@anonymouscomment9117]

A dog basket

[@tyronerobinson5641]

I used to work with Mia, she has a whole archive of embarrassing stories. Love the no pants dance.

[@TheFlygonproductions]

What happened at the end of this one?

[@Jennyfisch]

+Flygon I don't think anybody ever found out

[@tyronerobinson5641]

Sadly it is really mundane. The parents come back, find wee in a bowl and find mog in the basket with her friend (who she definitely did not have sex with) and there's blood on an expensive jacket. They said they wish she used the leather one. Bacon sandwiches all round

[@roykeane8670]

So was she having sex in the dog basket or not?

[@klatewilson5170]

and where did the blood come from???

[@charlottefisher4733]

She was my science teacher at school a few years ago. I wish I had seen this when she taught me so I could hear the end of this story. She left to go to America

[@prismen5535]

no she didn’t she was my teacher at leichhardt last year in year 10

[@chloelee2688]

Because it was really really cold Graham, it really was. 😂😂😂 BRING HER BACK ON, BUT TO THE COUCH so she can explain her story with all the details and the ending!!

[@moleyp9256]

I love that her students are commenting on this but seriously hoW DOES IT END I WANNA KNOW

[@stephanieroylance5033]

if you scroll up you can a comment her friend posted underneath here of how it ended

[@99annanic]

"Leicester.....never has a town got less" Yet they are the champions of England.

[@MikeMJPMUNCH]

She actually says "Top of the league" right before everyone cracks up from Graham's reaction from her saying she is from Leicester.

[@99annanic]

MikeMJPMUNCH oh shit she actually does 😂

[@klatewilson5170]

Wow you're good, I didn't even notice her saying that

[@cauecorreadasilva821]

he meant the town got no cheering from the crowd

[@sadrevolution]

I am Canadian. I know 5 people from England, none of whom know each other. 3 are from Leicester.

[@ashleymorales4295]

2:10 Freaking Chris giggling to himself XD like, "Hehehe, they were doin the dirty."

[@buddhastaxi666]

I have paid for a private detective to find out the full details as I found roaming around Leicester after 3 months to be ineffective.

[@siobhancrawley1487]

It's 3 years later. Has Sherlock discovered any info on Mia's story yet?

[@Global00Vintage]

Graham is just all class and pure style.

[@zingleraster9124]

Where was the dog? So many loose ends with this story. Love it.

[@travelwell6049]

I think we can assume the dog was in the guest bedroom having gone to sleep wearing her pyjamas.

[@gtrrs71]

That's a very attractive woman.

[@borismuller86]

Cody Short you should have seen the dog basket.

[@Pigisdeado]

She's a teacher at my school looooooool 😂

[@KiloOneThree]

Tell her she was awesome!

[@jennhoff03]

Well, if that's true, ask her how it ended! I'm super curious. I feel like the punchline was going to be at the end.

[@BatrickPateman430]

tell her shes cute and hilarious for me plz!

[@tiffanyplacencia2296]

Lol, I loved the way she said Graham

[@andrewtucker94]

'I feel like the punchline was going to be at the end'

[@Someone-dv8uj]

She was brilliant! Very funny!

[@natalie651]

This is by far my favorite Red Chair story but the truth is that what makes it so great is Graham's reaction and interaction with Mia. When she says "he gets injured" and Graham's face, I crack up every time.

[@sygb.550]

id think i ever laughed this much on red chair story

[@flyingzone356]

This got to be the funniest story EVER on the red chair even though I don't understand the story at all and I believe I am not the only one.

[@TonyEnglandUK]

This and the Kiwi who tells the story about his friend going for a poo behind a bush.

[@firebaby7]

omg i didn't know... RIP Ronnie Corbett

[@S1L3NTG4M3R]

Who else is stuck in the never ending loop of The Graham Norton show 👀

[@rhyleesmumX]

*sits rocking in a corner* Me🤦‍♀️

[@adabellechristinetaylor2885]

miss ogorman, youre hilarious lol

[@HKogen]

The best red chair moment ever

[@alexanderraijmakers673]

She is so cute and awesome... I love her!!!

[@JerzyFeliksKlein]

My favourite Red Chair story by far

[@TheLightkurosaki1312]

this is the best red chair EVER! :-DDDD

[@michaelmurphy75]

... got a bit larry @ the pub ~ no pants daunce, teddy bear rolls = just standard ‘nother night out... Me 'tinks I'm in love

[@paulcharles5128]

MICHAEL MURPHY I

[@pocahontas5616]

what does it mean?

[@TonyEnglandUK]

She's not saying "larry", she's saying "lairy", which can mean "flashy", or more usually "a little bit aggressive and confrontational"

[@harryoates91]

@@TonyEnglandUK don't get lairy if ya balls ain't hairy

[@TonyEnglandUK]

and "teddy bear rolls" are when you sit down with your hands behind your knees and roll in a half circle keeping your legs straight all the time.

[@jamesc140]

Rip Ronnie you legend ❤

[@potterpotty01]

never heard an audience member begged to be flipped.

[@jonathaneffemey4892]

Thanks for posting

[@alexanderraijmakers673]

I love her!!!

[@Robbie32]

First you're at a reunion party, next thing you're at a pub and then you're in a utility closet.

[@handsoffmycactus2958]

Robbie Hall utility closet? What

[@jennifermurphy2662]

I just wanna know how big this damn dog basket was?

[@Havanorange]

Listening to Mia's story, I was thinking she reminds me of Skylar, the character in the movie Good Will Hunting played by Minnie Driver. I think we all agree with Graham that we've missed a lot of that story! 😁

[@zingleraster9124]

Spot on...the mannerisms and voice!

[@Mikeztarp]

3:04 He says "hari-kari". It took me like 5 times to get it. *It's hara-kiri, Graham!*

[@kallasuvar]

It's a common misspelling/mispronounciation though

[@zkhn21]

I want to know the full story

[@mavetyan]

That Mia girl was gorgeous!

[@mattmarriott2951]

She was my biology teacher

[@Rubi8D]

Matt Paul no one gives a shit fat boy

[@TonyEnglandUK]

@@Rubi8D lol Joseph. Mean, but funny.

[@crimsongate3248]

Her friends did her bad

[@williamkearns2482]

2016 Wasn't A Bad Year.

[@moonwalker4696]

no wonder a lit if bits are missing she probably figurered youd pull the leaver by then plus youre usually pressing ppl to hurry up with the story

[@philippapay4352]

If all there was in the room was a dog bowl, dog bed and winter coats, how did her boyfriend get cut badly on anything? And what did "one thing led to another mean?" What happened?

[@TonyEnglandUK]

Apparently, she's a teacher and one of her pupils explains the whole story in the comments somewhere.

[@Marky11694]

I wouldn't have let him pull the lever before I asked for her number and had her finish the story

[@petejones879]

Jessica looks gorgeous

[@scipioafricanus5871]

How did Ronnie Corbett inspire the Red Chair? Does anyone know?

[@malkymac7258]

Ronnie Corbett had a regular segment in The Two Ronnies where it was just him sitting in a comfy chair telling a funny story.

[@mavetyan]

This is the greatest mystery of the century, what really happened in the utility room??

[@siobhancrawley1487]

Somewhere among these comments is an ex-student of Mia's and they explain the story in full but I can't find it again!

[@sadrevolution]

Mia seems great!

[@hafizur91]

She was making this up. People will do anything for a bit of fame

[@jerrymcconnell665]

That Mia is a darling

[@VilhjalmrVilhjalmrsson]

Dan! Dan! Dan! Dan!

[@kit2130]

Why is there a dog basket with a bowl in a -3 degree closet

[@avidgamester7640]

She was definitely drunk

[@arifaristiana2525]

Reminds me of Emma Stone

[@realPromotememedia]

There was no story

[@SilentGamesBread]

Hello

[@JS-el5qz]

Leicester and white 🤔

[@nkfanning]

It really sounded like she made the entire thing up and was just trying to get tipped

[@robertstorey7476]

Níamh yes that's what I thought. Just showing off.

[@rhyleesmumX]

Worst story teller ever

[@siobhancrawley1487]

But funniest*

[@miahy571]

my name is mia 😱😂😂

[@skeglar]

This is a perfect example why we get annoyed when women tell stories haha

[@robertstorey7476]

She's not as funny as she thinks she is. Just a show off making up stuff up for attention.

[@natalie651]

I don't think she thinks she's funny. She's laughing because what happened was so ridiculous to her.

[@ngrp27]

She was nervous.

[@TheCasualObservers]

Another incel.

[@robertstorey7476]

@@TheCasualObservers its hardly being an incel to point out the blindingly obvious point that she has just made something up to get in the red chair and show off.

[@siobhancrawley1487]

@@robertstorey7476 Man, calm down, she was just having a laugh.

[@surfermx]

She lives in California now
