Just watching now and I think you did the right thing, she's painful.

The whole show was very flat I thought. I don't like it when one guest comes on later than the others, it gives the impression they don't want to engage properly for whatever reason.

And looks like they did do a 'red chair' segment but must have left it out of the edit as Graham was leaning on the red chair lever which was on his left after the music, whereas before the song the lever was downstage to his right.

Tonight's episode features Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner, Chris O'Dowd and Niall Horan.

They've also announced the guest list in two weeks. It will be Benedict Cumberbatch, Eddie Redmayne, Bryan Cranston and LeAnn Rimes.

In passing, has anyone heard who the guests will be at next week's second recording?

He seems the more level headed one from the group

Chris is drunk and very annoying! I would like it if he stopped interrupting people with pointless comments.

Niall comes across as a nice guy.

Niall saved the show for me. The two Hollywood guests were boring and Chris O'Dowd is irritating

Better line up next week

I stuck with it tonight but definitely found it one of the weaker line-ups. Amy Adams was good the last time she appeared but tonight I found her and especially Jeremy Renner extremely boring at times, Chris was mildly amusing but irritating after a while.

Niall comes across as very likeable, as others have said he's definitely the most down-to-earth and natural of 1D, and his song was okay.

Looking forward to next weeks show, love Catherine Tate.

I love Chris(yes he is still married to yer woman they have a child now), Jeremy I remember the last time he was one and it was also his first. He sat there like a deer in the headlights! He is actually more relaxed this time. Amy is fun.

Loved Niall, loved his song, loved the second red chair story, could have done with Chris O'Dowd being less inebriated and interrupting.

Jeremy Renner, quite possibly the most boring man to appear on the show. Find Amy Adams quite rude at times as well, especially when she turns her back away from Graham and the others.

That being said, the show was decent. O'Dowd being drunk helped, he was fun. The lad's song from 1D was dreary though, but at least he writes his own songs and plays an instrument which is refreshing.

That must have been the Irish edition of the show last night, even Amy Adams was described as 'looking Irish' on the show's twitter feed.

Predictably, Graham let the Irish red chair guest walk, he always does.

It's an urban myth. I've heard variants of that story a good few times over the years. And it's always the groom getting revenge on the bride, for some reason.

Think about the logisitics. Even with exact place settings put down, people often do switch seats. It'd be lucky to have all the right people in all the right places. He could have picked a more believable number. And usually people are just assigned a table, not a seat. And the hotel staff would have to be instructed to put a red dot plate at the right settings or the groom sneak into the dining room and do it himself. And, really, would someone really be able to go through with the ceremony, knowing what they know? An annulment is still hassle to obtain. How did it come out that she slept with all those men? Would he really keep it secret that he knew before the wedding day?

Like I said, I've heard variants of this story many times down the years. It didn't happen.

I’ve never heard the story before, but I did think there were too many things about it (as you’ve alluded to) to make it true. I don’t believe it.

Totally. When you think about it, it just wouldn't work or be likely to happen.

I hadn't heard it before but we said it was definitely made up which kind of defeats the point of the red chair. I thought the episode itself was reasonable, Niall seemed like a lovely young man and Chris was very funny albeit drunk.
Amy and Jeremy were just okay. I have seen worse episodes but also much better.
