The Cookie Monster ate it. Or maybe, like me, its on her overcoat and she doesn't feel the need to have it on show 24/7.

Because it's her choice not to?

I like both of them - I'm just bored with celebrity kid stories. Chris Martin was something new to me. My God how Paltrow must have stifled him.

I hate the noise that comes out of Chris Martins mouth. And tge dull repetitive rhythms of his songs. Its like the zombie version of music.

I only watched the beginning to see what Norton had to say about Trump this week, he has a dig at him every week, that's why it has become so tedious. Once McIntyre came on I switched over to something more entertaining.

I agree, I have no interest in his music but I thought the zombie showing some life tonight.

I honestly didn't realise until tonight that Lloyd Webber wasn't gay

Norton seems to have lost his magic. Not sure what it is. Whether it's because they've ditched the audience participation and 'internet' segments as well as ristricting the red chair stories, I don't know. Is it because they don't have the comedian at the end of the sofa anymore? It just seems off, regardless.

I think you're right about GN. The show has lost all the features that used to make it distinctive, in favour of cramming in more guests to plug their wares. It's just another chat show now. It's a shame. I used to love it.

You haven't got to like the Beatles to know Lennon and McCartney are musical geniuses, same with Chris Martin. It's not my sort of music, but you've got to hand it to the man, he keeps coming up with anthemic songs. Granted he's not in Lennon and McCartney's league - plus, they wouldn't have to turned up on TV looking like homeless vagrants.

My OH is totally convinced Lloyd Webber is gay even though I've told him he's been married several times with kids

Norton was a tw*t at the beginning to Chris Martin - who was giving a perfectly good answer to his question but laughed at him when it wasn't what he wanted to hear.

I thought Andrew Lloyd Webber looked ill tonight. He looked much thinner than I remember him. But maybe it was because I normally see him in a suit jacket which would hide his thin arms.
I've always thought of Andrew LW sexuality as being in the same category as Prince Edward's which is probably not PC.
Apologies in advance if I have offended anyone for my non-PC comment.

Wasn't there a fuss last year with Siena Miller yet none for Rosamund, was that just Siena hatred coming out?

Notice as it's so odd that on Tv poppy wearing is almost 100%, so she stood out, yet in real life it seemed to be about 20% wearing when I looked around yesterday, why the difference?

Strange world wear footballers banned from wearing them yet those on Tv criticised for not wearing

And indeed, why should she? Are the Poppy Police invading DS as well as everywhere else?
I choose not to adorn myself with them but give freely if caught!

Problem with the BBC is your almost morally forced to wear one, I suspect several other people who appear wear one not because they want to but because they feel they have to while being in the public domain, I would wear one but can appreciate not everybody feels they want to & that is their choice.
What I actually think is worse is if you feel you have to wear one you get one so small & insignificant you can barely see it, in the case of Michael McIntyre he is not only wearing a tiny poppy but its half way down his lapel, to me that gives the impression he's saying " oh ok but if I have to I want it barely showing " it was so low it could not be seen in any close up, either wear one or don't but don't make it look like your wearing it under sufferance, imo that's worse than not wearing one.

Articles in Sun and Metro about the lack of Poppy, only fair on Sienna that Rosamund gets the same amount of flack.

In the real world people don't wear Poppies as they are too lazy to get one. But on Tv there is no excuse Sienna admitted it was a mistake but the silence from Rosamund is telling is she really anti respecting the dead who ensured we live in a world where she has been able to have a highly successful acting career? Even anti war Corbyn wear's one!

He is the funniest man in the world, in his own head.

First time I've seen CM interviewed. He's very engaging and funny, he seemed a little nervous, which makes him seem more like a normal bloke. Very fanciable. Good programme overall, as it quite often is when there are only British guests.

Looking forward to Tom Hanks next week.

It's been like that for at least 3-4 years now lets be honest. Norton has over the last 5-6 years become such a celebrity obsessed, brown nosing establishment figure who lost any kind of edge or alternative imagine the moment he left Channel 4.

I mean I can understand why. You go to the BBC get paid a fortune and of course on the BBC you have to do things "proper".

I just got fed up of the show like 3 years ago because he is just so fawning now. Also the amount of repeated guests I wonder how they still have any anecdotes to tell at this point.
