Doctor Who and The Crown stars confirmed for Graham Norton show
The Graham Norton Show has confirmed the guests for the Friday, December 15 episode, and its quite the Christmas cracker.
Ahead of his first outing as the Time Lord in this year's festive special, Sex Education's Ncuti Gatwa will be on the sofa to talk about what it's like leading the world of Doctor Who.
Imelda Staunton will also be on to talk about playing Queen Elizabeth II in the final episodes of The Crown, which has been criticised over its portrayal of Diana, Princess of Wales, specifically after her death.

Music will be provided by acclaimed jazz singer Gregory Porter, who will be singing the song 'Christmas Wish' from his album titled the same name.
This week's episode (November 24) will have chats with Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Saunders, and Daisy Haggard, and music from Take That, while the week after that (December 1) will feature Julia Roberts on her first-ever appearance, Tom Hanks, and Timothée Chalamet, while Cher will be performing in the incredibly-titled 'DJ Play a Christmas Song'.
