Just slightly running over one hour long, this is a fun stand up comedy performance from my favourite guy of all time, Graham Norton!
Highlights include Graham making sexual innuendos by teasing a bloke in the front row, and right at the end when he brings out the beloved Kitty Phone (think VERY early episodes of So Graham Norton!), and makes one of his infamous phone calls!
I borrowed the video from a friend of mine, and now I'm tempted to buy a copy for myself! It isn't as brilliant as So Graham Norton or V Graham Norton, but it's 66 minutes of the great man himself, and that makes it a must-see!

I love Graham Norton's new show, V Graham Norton, going out 5 days a week - I am a huge fan, and although these half hour shows aren't QUITE as brilliant as the hour long Friday night So Graham Norton, they are still incredibly addictive!
I went and saw V Graham Norton being filmed on 10 June 2002, with my friend/work colleague Federika. The audience had to bring along embarrassing holiday photographs! I took along a sweet but humiliating photo of myself aged 12 (but looking MUCH younger!) in Cornwall, dressed as a pixie!
I didn't think the picture was shocking or hysterical enough to get a mention, but it did - and the audience liked it the most out of all the photos Graham selected, so I won the grand prize! My heart was pounding when Graham said, "Barnaby's our winner! Come up here, Barnaby!" and I had to go up onstage and meet one of my favourite people of all time, and be given a FREE HOLIDAY TO ICELAND!
So, I guess I am biased about how much I love the show! It's a shame it can't be at least 60 minutes long, it sometimes feels rushed at just half an hour in running time. The guests are generally brilliant - I think Jennifer Tilly was really funny, and Alex Kingston did a good send up of her doctor role in TV's ER! Daryl Hannah seemed very nervous, but relaxed and became more amused as the show went on.
The audience participation is still as funny as ever, one of the most amusing anecdotes being from a guy who had to break up with a woman because he had an allergic reaction to her!
V Graham Norton may be for truly dedicated, utterly devoted Graham Norton fans only... and that is what I am!
