The BBC have agreed a new three-year deal with former Bandon Grammar School student Graham Norton, for a continuing run of The Graham Norton Show. The wildly popular TV chat show is back with series 34; the show began on BBC Two in 2007 and so this newest series, due to air in 2026, will be the programme’s 19th year on-air.
The Graham Norton Show is one the biggest chat shows in the market, and the latest series averaged 2.9 million viewers per episode. It also does well online, and continues to generate millions of global video views across YouTube, TikTok, Facebook and Instagram.
Since 2007 the show has won multiple awards including BAFTA TV Awards, National Television Awards, British Comedy Awards, RTS Television Awards and more.
