Any length of time that Graham Norton is off our screen is too long in out book so we're very excited that he's back after his Christmas break tonight with another brilliant lineup on his couch.

But before we get there, why not remind ourselves why he really is the best at what he does and that his show brings about genuine moments of comedy gold. Be it the red chair, filthy innuendo (we're looking at you Dawn French and Julie Walters) or some of the greatest and weirdest anecdotes that are out there, the Graham Norton Show brings the best out of everyone who goes on it.

This is nine and a half minutes of pure joy.
