Graham Norton spoke to This Morning about being the last person to interview Carrie Fisher before her death
This Morning, ITV This Morning, ITV
GRAHAM NORTON WAS on the other side of the couch on yesterday’s episode of This Morning with Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby.
Norton chatted away with Philip and Holly, covering a variety of topics from how he’s preparing for the 20th anniversary episode of The Graham Norton Show to that time Mark Wahlberg ended up falling into a drunken slumber on the show.
Philip eventually brought up the topic of Carrie Fisher.

Graham told Philip and Holly how the interview almost didn’t even happen.
The final interview with Carrie Fisher touched on the topic of her affair with Harrison Ford.
Carrie had written about it in her book, and up until Graham’s show hadn’t considered the fact that Harrison Ford would be getting asked about this for the rest of his life.
In his appearance on This Morning, Graham said that Carrie had felt terrible after this was pointed out to her.

So, because of that, Graham didn’t bring it up in tonight’s interview with Harrison Ford.
That explains why Graham has managed to keep his show going for 20 years anyway. Graham finally returns to BBC One at 10.35pm tonight to chat with Ryan Gosling, Harrison Ford, Reese Witherspoon, Margot Robbie.
