Who is on The Graham Norton Show tonight?

Peter Capaldi

Peter Capaldi will discuss the latest series of Doctor Who, which begins this Saturday night on BBC One.

It’s set to be Capaldi’s last series in the Tardis as he leaves the show ahead of Steven Moffat’s creative handover to new showrunner Chris Chibnall.

Much like the Doctor himself, production of the series is often shrouded in mystery, with very little information getting out ahead of time – but Graham will be hoping to eke out some of the details from his famous guest.

Whovians are already excited about the return of The Master, played by John Simm, in the upcoming series. He was last seen taking over the world and doing battle with David Tennant in an epic three-part episode.

Fans will be hoping to learn more secrets of the new series tonight – and learn about why Capaldi is leaving, his hotly anticipated regeneration, and his replacement in the title role.

Miranda Hart

Miranda Hart is a comedian best-known for her self-titled sitcom Miranda, in which she plays an exaggerated version of herself, navigating romance, relationships and awkward situations.

Besides comedy, she has also made a name for herself as a serious actress in Call The Midwife, playing the role of Chummy to rave reviews and winning herself a ton of acting awards.

Fans of the sitcom have been clamouring for another series of Miranda since it went off the air in 2014, so Graham may have questions about whether this is a realistic prospect.

But Miranda will be most interested in talking about her starring theatre role. She will play nasty Miss Hannigan in the musical Annie on the West End – her theatre acting debut.

Theatre fans – and Miranda’s own fans – have wondered what her singing performance will be like and how she will take to the new medium.

Miranda is currently in rehearsals for the show, which opens on May 24.

Warren Beatty

Warren Beatty will also be on the sofa with Graham, talking about his new film Rules Don’t Apply.

Rules Don’t Apply, released in November 2016, bombed at the box office in the US, although lead actress Lily Collins was nominated for a Golden Globe for her performance.

The film is set in Hollywood in 1958, and follows the development of an illicit relationship between aspiring actress Marla and her driver Frank, despite the fact relationships between employees of their film studio is banned.

Warren Beatty is also known for Bonnie and Clyde, Heaven Can Wait, Shampoo, and Dick Tracy.

Beatty has been nominated for fourteen Academy Awards during his long and productive film career, and has produced many of the films he stars in – so he is sure to have some amazing stories to tell.

More recently, Keeley played Gemma Webster in The Missing– the mum of missing Alice Webster who had always wanted her daughter back, until she turned up and Keeley’s character thought something was off.

On the show tonight, Keeley is set to discuss the new series of The Durrells, based on the autobiography of Gerald Durrell and his account of his family’s move to Corfu in 1935.

Keeley plays widowed matriarch Louisa Durrell, who drags her four children away from their lives in Bournemouth to live on the Greek island of Corfu. The series follows her struggles to keep her four ‘unruly’ children in order and adapt to island life.

The second series of the TV drama begins on Sunday, April 23 on ITV and Keeley will be hoping she can convince Graham – and the viewers at home – that it’s well worth a watch.
