Downey Jr. turned to his costar,Jude Law, to tell him what story to share next.
There’s a natural looseness toThe Graham Norton Show.
Robert Downey Jr. just was too loose.
Based on body language alone, Ronan could tell she was ready to abort the interview and leave.
She barely cracked a smile.
The late singer appeared onThe Graham Norton Showto promote her latest album.
Leave the jokes to the professionals.
7David Cassidy
Once upon a time,David Cassidywas an American heartthrob.
While appearing onThis Morning, Norton spoke to hostsEamonn HolmesandRuth Langsfordabout that time Cassidy was on his show.
I think David hates that he was David Cassidy."
6Kevin Costner
Kevin Costnerhas had a monumental career.
From an actor to a director, the man has done it all.

Which means he’s spent his entire life having to discuss it.
As many guests have previously joked about onThe Graham Norton Show, doing publicity is part of the gig.
That was never much more evident than when Kevin Costner sat on the big red couch.

Instead, fans remember his awkward interactions with fellow guestJessica Biel.
Mickey, this is a chat show, not a dating show!
Biel sits there incredibly uncomfortably.

Instead,Rourke insists that there is a “very good connection, she doesn’t know it yet.
When the audience gives that “oooooh,” you know it’s over.
When Mark Wahlberg came by the show, the actor was just a tad too tipsy.

He was clearly drunk.
He was clearly having a grand ol’ time.
While it was unintentionally funny, it was incredibly awkward.
Wahlberg simply refused to allow fellow guestsSarah SilvermanorMichael Fassbenderto finish their anecdotes.
At one point, Wahlberg journeyed over to Norton to pop a squat on his lap.
And then he began to feel him up.
Norton joked that it’s wrong to touch the man there.
But really, it was just Wahlberg searching for the microphone that Norton had hidden away.
We didn’t wake him, we were delighted.”
For Daryl Hannah, the celebrated actress, she allegedly is fearful of having a face of unfamiliar faces.
I guess being herself in front of a studio audience makes her terrified.
I think they tried to make her do David Letterman once, and she walked out and fainted."
2Robert De Niro
The greatRobert De Nirohas appeared onThe Graham Norton Showmultiple times.
Having a reputation as a notoriously uncooperative guest, Graham Norton had his hands full with the Hollywood legend.
Coming on a chat show and not chatting?
Isn’t that sacrilege?He’s even gone on to call him a “benign presence.
“The problem with De Niro was that he is just a poor storyteller.
Then he finally went, Why am I telling this?
Nobody had an answer.
We cut it.”
