- Graham Norton: I'm thrilled to be signing with the BBC for another three years and can't imagine working anywhere else.

- Graham Norton: I don't want to get married. I came out of a 5-year relationship and I still have a house. If there was gay marriage I don't think I would. I don't know why people get so excited and interested in being married. Gay marriage is one thing, but gay divorce; I'm sort of looking forward to gay divorce. That would be so vicious.
  Edit Share Hide
- Graham Norton: In Britain if I am walking around, I know that people know me, whereas in New York I don't know whether I'm anonymous or not. It makes you slightly more nervous.
