Graham Norton Show Last Night...

[trt]

I couldn't understand a word that the Irish bloke from Mrs Browns was saying, so I used the sub-titles, but they couldn't keep up with his fast talking.

[hc4361]

What Irish bloke? There are several on Mrs Brown's

[anneasquith]

GN. Is doing very well for someone so talentless, I like him .

[Mamyalynne]

It was a fibrillation show, I can imagine it would have been hard to keep pace with the speed Brendan talks.

[NellieMay]

It's the only chat show we watch. Graham Norton has the gift of really including all his guests and knowing when he should just sit back and listen. I like him and find him humorous and intelligent. I even found myself liking Harry Styles last night. He seems to have grown up and become very personable. I had no problem with understanding Brendan O'Carroll.

[hellywelly4]

I deliberately didn't watch because the Irish person was on.

[ummmm]

I assume Mrs Brown himself.

I can understand him fine, funnily enough.

[ummmm]

Brenden O'Carroll...

[Prudie]

Well slap my thigh, I've never watched it and never twigged Mrs Brown was played by a man.

[ummmm]

Yes, and his wife in real life plays his daughter.

Anyway...it's rubbish imo.

[Mamyalynne]

I don't watch Mrs Brown's Boys but he can be fun as a guest for a while - equally if someone has hearing difficulties I can appreciate they'd struggle with the accent and the speed of delivery.

I enjoyed the show last night, but then I am a fan of 'Mrs Brown' and young Harry Styles who has matured into a lovely young man and I love his new single.

[Islay]

What a shame that so many could not understand him, I am sure if you write and tell him he will in future speak in a slow and contained manner so that you can understand him!

[Mamyalynne]

I don't think it's that many who couldn't and I'm sure trt wishes his hearing wasn't impaired - subtitles often lag well behind and things lose their impact.

[baza]

Perhaps the repeat will have subtitles.

[hc4361]

Brendan only took on the role of Mrs Brown himself because the actress who was supposed to play her dropped out at the last minute. He doesn't do a bad job of playing a woman :D

[ummmm]

He's good at it and there are some humorous bits but it's just same old same old.

[NellieMay]

Sorry TRT. Had not realised you had an impairment. I can see why you found it difficult.

[Mamyalynne]

I think what I love about Norton is the variety of guests and how even though some are from different genres they all get along quite well - well on the couch at least.

[ummmm]

He's certainly far from talentless!
