Norton, Graham

The Fruits Of My Research - Norton, Graham
Versatile slightly camp Irish comedian who came to fame in the challenging role of a slightly camp Irish priest in the Channel 4 sitcom, Angela’s Ashes. This success led to him presenting his own show Oh, Noooo, it’s Graham Norton, this time in a slightly camp Irish style. After his ratings rocketed he was poached by British public broadcaster BBC to present a host of early Saturday evening entertainment programmes. This tested his range as the programmes ranged from singing to dancing competitions featuring members of the public trying to be famous. Each show was completely different to the others and each required him to change his style, sometimes being a slightly camp Irish comedian and at other times being an Irish comedian who appears slightly camp.
