“Thanks i’ll sign some of your posters”

[@MissJanina1]

Haha! Love that interview!! :) :)

[@tugceaydn8550]

@Joseph Norm a fan said that to james and james responded with what i wrote

[@marioalt9420]

@Joseph Norm Or, just watch the clip.

[@mat5473]

3 great stories in 2 minutes. This is like a talk show clinic right here.

[@williamclarke3026]

it's nice to know that even Bradley Cooper has bad days once in a while.

[@vamanosninja4143]

keeps him humble

[@sujitharaghu3331]

Yaa🤣

[@kingvahagn2011]

I recommend listening to the Smartless podcast where he's a guest. Dude has had a lot of rough days unfortunately. He struggled with drug addiction and alcohol abuse as well

[@meetgouri]

Bradley is such a cool guy......he is on this show pretty frequently......no complaints though

[@Hoganply]

I want to know what dope marked this comment as spam.

[@GaryMurgatroyd]

Ol Bradley is a cool guy ! always down to earth .

[@CharlesHenryVolk]

After Stephen Merchant says "It was so insulting!", I just want him to then say "I AM NOT A MORON!"

[@TomBombadil851]

just once i want him to be asked about his portal work on one of these talk shows

[@vibhavrathee6788]

Last one was really mean though it also shows how much of a gentleman he is.

[@NibberKSmooth]

Stephen is a great story teller, love it.

[@01rai01]

"But I misspelled the shit out of his last name"

[@rheathermopolis9299]

+rai ZOR FUNNIEST COMMENT EVER!!! STILL SNORTING

[@sttomms9174]

mack on a hay

[@MrSkinnyWhale]

How can you not

[@okee9]

Norton has the best chat show on tv since he got rid of all the childish crap and just concentrated on the guests, he sits back and lets the guests speak and gets the best stories out of them, like Frank Skinner telling about his female stalker, priceless

[@TheBrokenEclipse]

Those glasses are really bugging me...

[@hufflepuffchef5013]

Arch Which glasses?

[@TheBrokenEclipse]

Jo Brand's. That white stripe is really annoying my OCD

[@Mikeztarp]

Me too!

[@aishwaryatankkar8652]

Looks lopsided...or she is about to have a stroke.

[@anywaythewindblows8912]

I just wanna stop the show and fix them

[@snowglobe87]

I like Bradley Cooper's demeanor!!! Most of the other American guests are SO STIFF, it's refreshing.

[@myoldreteacher]

I like how after he says, "I signed it", he looks across like he's did something really dirty... LOL!

[@FlyingBandicoot]

Stephen Merchant... what a lovely guy. And a great orb too.

[@waviehall]

I dont understand how anyone, anyone at all could dislike this video? I mean i know theres so many people that have literally no sense of humour but disliking either of those anecdotes is just crazy. they are funny and safe to watch with your grandma. what more could you want

[@dolphinsnape]

Look mate, I have seen people who hates the Queen song "Show Must Go On" so is mot a surprise at all to find people disliking this video

[@rasberryjamdoughnut2288]

You can tell how good Graham and his team are by how much genuine fun the guests have!

[@4sara12]

bradley cooper is too adorable at the end

[@britishnerd3919]

In fairness to the Stephen merchant guy, steve did steal that persons money from an ATM

[@seabury]

oh my god the jo brand story is insane!

[@GetOverIt2]

i love all these guests so much! Respect to them for their work and for being entertaining, lovely and humble here

[@DrCrabfingers]

Stephen Merchant is very West Country...very relaxed, open, great sense of humour....and just friendly! West Country people are awesome!

[@LaurokaPlay]

bradley is so attractive

[@miketeabag6501]

Laura he's not as attractive as me.

[@sanghamitrakhosla6585]

Can you tell me who is the lady in the middle ?

[@TheNOGGS]

Sanghamitra Khosla Jo Brand, a British comedienne.

[@happierquotes7400]

“Eyes bulging with imagined riches”

[@jaryd12345]

I think the person at the cash machine with Steve must have heard the time he took a £30 "reward" for handing in someone's card

[@ilovetruffles99]

Bradley's so adorable

[@13din]

I don't think Bradley meant to misspell his name. Matthew's last name is hard to spell in general

[@sotschris946]

And you know what?.... I singed it! *Shy smiley face*. Ahahaha! He's awesome!

[@spaziwan]

I bet that woman is regretting not getting Bradley Cooper's autograph now!

[@Clutching.My.Pearls]

Bradley did you sign it, "Alright, alright, alright, Mathew."

[@Saeed-ew2ww]

“And you know what?, I signed it 🥴”

[@stupidintellect90]

I bet that woman who asked for Mathew Maccaonaughey's autograph (however you spell it) is kicking herself now. She managed to meet Bradley, but totally blew it.

[@BoredomBreedsNerds]

Jo Brand. I fucking love you.

[@chattycathydoll]

So now there's a woman going around trying to convince people saying I got Bradley Cooper to sign an autograph and it says Mathew McConnaghy

[@MarxistKnight]

Not to mention how the way his eyes are probably magnified even more through his glasses would make it look like he was trying to catch a glance, I bet he looks very suspicious whenever he stands behind anybody

[@Blazehotel1]

Lol it's the guy that does the voice of the wee robot core thing in a game I had played once...

[@joseph_marcillo-coronado]

He's famous from the Ricky gervais show

[@nathanchong7731]

1:50 Greatest Red Chair Story

[@jonathaneffemey4892]

Thanks so much for posting.

[@izchucknorris]

My history teacher looks like Bradley Cooper, he's been stopped in the streets before when he was wearing shades apparently

[@UniqueGeekFreak]

lol i've always wondered where the history of autographs come from, to me it's straight up silly begging someone to write their names on someone else's properties lol and to actually stalk other ppl for having someone else's name written down on a piece of paper it's just funny when you think about the hysteria with celebrities, I actually feel sorry for them becuz they've seen another part of humans most of us will never have to see thank God, I'd lose a lot of respect due to how most fans behave. It's just a human being! Don't degrade yourselves for another human being have some self-respect!

[@miguelrodriquez7094]

+Sarah Lowe I my self have never gotten an autograph and wouldn't really want too either but the motivation is simply money. That autograph is going straight up on eBay when they get home.

[@thedarksiderebel]

Bollocks. That logic implies that every person is just selling on autographs. I collect them and the reason for it is simply to have a personal keepsake of someone you admire. Its worth nothing except the sentimentality of having a small 'piece' of that person. I wouldn't sell any of them.

[@OllieWales]

I would only get an autograph if it was on my copy of a piece of work that celebrity has done. For example, if I met Bradley Cooper, I would ask him to sign a copy of The Hangover. Other than that, I think autographs are useless and would take a picture with them.

[@Rubiecat]

I mean it's really just proof that you met the person you respect/admire, I think ever since photos are basically accessible to everybody autographs have lost a lot of meaning but I understand how they could have been a big deal back in the selfieless days

[@iamdee2615]

Well you’re wrong because I have autographs of this NBA superstars with their photos (this was the 90’s) so, I made this album with their photo and autographs...but then its unfortunate the Typhoon Hyann destroyed it so... you dont actually degrade yourself, you asked them nicely not s talked them Or dont be rude, maybe you are rude because you say that

[@GayaK91]

In that fan's defence, I always cover the numbers when I'm putting my password at an ATM machine, no matter who's next or behind me.

[@DavidInSomnia]

I've only seen a few clips of this show but i'm laughing my ass off on every one of them

[@classicmold]

This was a really good episode.

[@TygerBlueEyes]

"You know what? I signed it..." lol

[@gibsonduvall]

A mate of mine tells a story about spotting Sinead O'Connor in a hotel bar: He walks up to her and says: Are you, are you ??? Are you... fakes trying to remember her name for a little while. She says, a very bored, 'yes'. He says - I knew it!! I thought you were great in The King and I. It's it true? I don't really care, it's funny.

[@marcelasj190]

Love it Bradley Cooper... Is so cute!

[@brianabraham8726]

Come on, I always cover up my pin number, even if there is noone behind me^^

[@jamisia13]

Bradley Cooper is actually really funny!...I haven't seen many of his movies but now I think I'll check more out! He also seems very nice and down to earth.

[@50ShadesOfFrey]

I love Stephen Merchant so much! xD

[@itsybitsy999]

0:36 - the way Bradley Cooper is staring at Stephen Merchant FINALLY gets me on board with the gay rumors.

[@reneeborjas1877]

You're mirroring...

[@CaptainAmaziiing]

Thing is, if you could prove you had that signature, it's be worth more than either of their real signatures. "This is the one from the Graham Norton Show"

[@donepearce]

@minecraftyognaught I love the way you say they can't be compared, then in the next sentence compare them. Pure genius.

[@DeepEye1994]

Hey, he's the pisstaker guy from Hot Fuzz!

[@Penguin_of_Death]

+DeepEye1994 Peter Ian Staker if you don't mind!

[@ineffablemars]

You don't know him from anything else??!! 😳

[@DeepEye1994]

Taylor Lynn Not really...

[@MrNikolidas]

+DeepEye1994 The Office, Extras, a live stand-up show.. He even voiced a megalomaniac robot in Portal 2.

[@DeepEye1994]

Jonathan Charles Didn't watch The Office, never heard of Extras, didn't play Portal 2 lol sorry

[@TheFunkydreads]

Jo Brands glasses are making my OCD go crazy

[@TomMilleyMusic]

@kingofburnttoast yeah this show has a much better feel and style to it than pretty much all american chat shows. i love conan, but even that has the same format of most american shows. i like this idea of bringing out everyone at once so they can all interact and have fun. its more like friends sitting around for a chat than an interview.

[@VerifiedFiveIron]

Steve seems so relaxed without Rick. His jokes are not as strained. It's just natural.

[@Jubelsau]

Wheatley Laboratories... All I can think about watching this video.

[@johnnovy6630]

Good line up!

[@NotDuncan]

To be fair, I don’t care who it is standing behind me when I’m putting in my PIN. It’s better to be safe than sorry

[@Sketchcook81]

Really though, if that lady can produce a photo where Bradley Cooper signed as another actor, that adds to it's value.

[@orandachildren1051]

Well maybe the person who recognized Steve remembered the story where Steve took 30 pounds off a person's bank account who had accidentally left their card inside an ATM machine.

[@Stufagin]

Bradley Cooper....just too cool

[@Dr3Mc3Ninja]

How would you not want Bradley's signature XD

[@OracleUndone]

steve's a genius

[@blu2th11]

Wheatley!!!

[@vividhkothari1]

I love this man. He needs to do more work.

[@HollyMcDDxx]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL Never gets old :') LOVE BRADLEY COOPER!

[@harikiran4339]

Damn the last one is brutal af!!

[@Marlondurran]

Joe brands glasses stuck together with sellotape

[@KittiMitties]

Merch is a legend.

[@kevinberger3501]

She could sign the autograph with the placenta. That’d be cool 😎

[@blackphone]

HAHAHAHA the ending was so good.

[@LadyVenomWay]

Best show ever

[@Vinstinctify1]

Stephen u always funny

[@Raveityourway]

Why would you tell me that?...WHY WOULD YOU TELL ME THAT?!

[@rachelgarber1423]

In the US we stand several feet behind the person at the ATM, so there's never a chance of seeing what the person at the machine is doing.

[@Ometecuhtli]

Several feet and you can't see the numbers!? Are you a microscopy technician?

[@Kaaxe]

it's funny how "wheatley" is so damn tall

[@hellzila]

Nothing tops 'weirdly angry Icelandic man'!

[@jacksix92]

Jo Brands funny.

[@SR120]

Cannot wait!

[@iCannoNz98]

0.07 sound like a hitmarker

[@DepressedAnnnie]

I only mock his appearance because I think his off-beat looks are adorable. I love his goggle eyes. BTW: What's with your username?

[@donepearce]

@nehcrow You clearly missed the word "equally". That makes it a comparison. I don't mind you making ill-considered, erroneous comments at me, but please try and do it without the foul language. We'll all get along much more nicely that way.

[@SMorrizz]

exactly.

[@kingofburnttoast]

how many times has bradley cooper been on the show, i guess he figured that this was more fun than a chat with leno

[@C0M0estas]

you shat all over his parade lol. I wasn't completely serious, but you did rain on his parade.

[@Pp57561]

Butt did she sign it😅

[@DrivingDoctor]

Eyes bulging with imagined riches

[@keenonsteam]

Stephen Merchant - so funny.

[@alex_lomov]

was insulted?... taking a picture of you doesn't mean I trust you... and that was a point - - to take a picture of so real thief

[@88omair]

It's like Jo's glasses had surgery and there are still a few hours before the guaze gets removed

[@NickStedmon]

In part I think it's not entirely their fault. I mean they're sat next to people they may well not have heard of and they don't want to offend anyone because they know that they're people who are incredibly popular with the British public.

[@adrianlee3497]

That's pretty much a natural thing to hide one's PIN number unless the guy went completely out of the way to do that and the woman was right that doctor was totally out of line asking for an autograph in that situation.

[@nannyturtle7342]

oh wow ! how rude 😮 but still funny memories for them I'm sure

[@neferene1]

Bradley you are so funny!!:)

[@TheFunkydreads]

hahahahahah i do, lets pick out a wedding cake, a checkered one :)

[@SarahSmith-nr2wj]

If you've ever worked with young Drs and hear how they think and talk about people, as I have, you'd have the opinion that the selection process for medical school must become far more stringent than good grades.

[@DepressedAnnnie]

The real thing that's ridiculous about it is that he's worth millions of dollars now; why would he be stealing some guy's bank numbers off the street. He's right in saying it was insulting but because he's a better person than to be doing something like that? C'mon, Steve. Then again, maybe he doesn't trust anyone and always does that. Or maybe he doesn't do that with everyone, but considering this guy could look over his shoulder easily and has those giant eyes...

[@FutureAbe]

Bradley looks like a fit version of lee mack

[@buddhastaxi666]

steves only famoys Ricky's doormat

[@issytobizzy395]

anyone else thinking that the doctor needed her to sign a medical certificate

[@heliotropezzz333]

Possibly he did, and was making a joke about it, but it gave her the idea for a story.
