Graham Norton: Difference between revisions

== Behind the scenes ==

* Norton played himself in ''[[Dermot and the Doctor (TV story)|Dermot and the Doctor]]'', ''[[Norton's Regeneration (TV story)|Norton's Regeneration]]'', and ''[[Looking for Pudsey (TV story)|Looking for Pudsey]]''. Additionally his likeness appeared in ''[[Sprout Boy meets a Galaxy of Stars (TV story)|Sprout Boy meets a Galaxy of Stars]]''.

=== Accidental Appearances ===

* Norton has appeared twice accidentally in ''[[Doctor Who]]'':

** A mistake during the first broadcast of ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'' in the [[UK]] meant that sound from a [[BBC Three]] program, ''Strictly Dance Fever'', hosted by Graham Norton, was heard over the scene in which [[Rose Tyler|Rose]] first encounters the [[Auton]]s. [[File:Graham gets exterminated for spoiling Doctor Who - The Graham Norton Show preview - BBC One|thumb|Norton discusses accidentally appearing in [[TV]]: ''[[The Time of Angels (TV story)|The Time of Angels]]''.]]

** During its airing in some parts of [[England]], an animated advert for the talent show ''Over the Rainbow'' began playing over the cliffhanger of ''[[The Time of Angels (TV story)|The Time of Angels]]''. This sparked complaints to the [[BBC]], who later apologised. The advert contained an animated Graham Norton, who later joked about it on his own show – saying he finally secured a role on ''[[Doctor Who]]'', apparently unaware of his previous, accidental interruption. Norton then played a version of the cartoon banner, with a [[Dalek]] exterminating his cartoon self; coincidentally, the same show also featured an appearance by [[Karen Gillan]] and they spoke further about the error.
