Here’s the lineup for the Graham Norton Show

Paul Moore

Graham Norton show

He’s up against The Toy Show but has a cracking lineup.

Graham Norton could have a lineup of Elvis (announcing he’s actually been alive all these years and living in Mayo), Tom Hanks, The Queen absolutely locked out of her mind, and music featuring a Led Zeppelin reunion, and he’d still not get the Irish viewers that the Late Late Toy Show is bound to receive.

That’s the power of The Toy Show in the 32 counties but as they say in showbiz, the show must go on.

This being said, after The Toy Show is over, you’ll definitely want to watch the recording of Norton’s show because he has some cracking guests on.

Granted, none of them are a young farmer that raps, or a horologist, but this lineup is pretty impressive.

Michael B. Jordan

Without a doubt, the star of Creed II is one of the coolest men on the planet and after delivering a wonderful performance in Black Panther, he’s stepping back into the ring for Creed II.

Aside from being utterly brilliant in the likes of Friday Night Lights, The Wire, Chronicle, and Fruitvale Station, he’s also one hell of a nice guy. We like Mike.

Steve Carell

The star of The Office and The 40-Year-Old Virgin will be on the couch to talk about his new drama Welcome to Marwen, in which he plays an assault victim who constructs a miniature World War II village to help in his recovery. Always good value for a laugh.

Ruth Wilson

Oddly, the star of Luther is playing her own real-life grandmother in the new drama Mrs. Wilson. This being said, we’ve only got one thing on our mind when it comes to the talented actress….Season 5 of Luuuuuuuuutherrrrr!

Dawn French

It’s the Christmas season. It’s the panto season. Dawn French is making her pantomime debut and she’ll be providing the laughs too.

Elsewhere, music comes from Cheryl Tweedy, Cheryl Cole, Cheryl Fernandez-Versini, Cheryl. Just Cheryl. We’re sticking with Cheryl.
