Episode 18 The Graham Norton Show

-Hi, everyone, I'm Margot Robbie.

-And I'm Allison Janney.

-BOTH:

-Welcome to the Graham Norton show!

Hello! Hello.

Hey!

Oh, thank you very much.

Thank you so much. Hello, hello, hello.

And welcome to you all.

Now, I hope you all had a happy Valentine's Day, did you?

CHEERING

Oh! I did. Thanks for asking. Yes.

I was woken up in the morning by my loved one, holding a red rose,

desperate to hump me.

LAUGHTER

True story. Hasn't it been chilly? I say it's been chilly.

It's been cold, hasn't it? Cold! Yes.

Colder than a Sex In The City reunion.

And that's chilly!

But perfect weather for the Winter Olympics.

Have you all been watching?

-ALL:

-Yes.

Mm. Me neither.

Erm...

Ooh! Pyeongchang!

LAUGHTER

I didn't know there were six Olympic rings.

Now...

there have been dangerously high winds at this year's Olympics

and as we learnt recently, even the lightest of winds

can cause devastation.

Yes.

Let's get some guests on!

CHEERING

Later, will have Latin pop sensation Camila Cabello!

CHEERING

But first, he's Oscar-nominated

for his role in the critically acclaimed Get Out,

and now he's starring in Marvel's latest megahit Black Panther.

Please welcome Daniel Kaluuya!

Yay!

Hello, sir. You're very welcome.

Really good to see you.

Daniel Kaluuya!

This Swedish actress won an Oscar

for her role in The Danish Girl

and now she's kicking ass as Lara Croft in the brand-new

Tomb Raider, it's Alicia Vikander!

Oh!

Hello, lovely woman. Hi.

Come in, come in, sit down, Alicia.

She shot to fame as CJ in The West Wing,

now she's earned her first Oscar nomination for her standout

performance in I, Tonya, it's a pleasure to welcome Allison Janney!

CHEERING

You're like a gift, like an African gift!

Come in and sit down.

Also Oscar-nominated for her starring role in I, Tonya, this

Aussie actress is about to become one of the biggest players

in Hollywood. It's Margot Robbie!

CHEERING

Whoo!

Hi! Ah, so good to see you. Mwah, mwah.

Come in, sit down.

Hello, everybody. I tell you, this is a weekend and a half.

It's BAFTAs of course, this weekend.

-Are you all going to the BAFTAs?

-I am.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

I'm not.

Oh, God!

That's awkward(!)

But we've got to celebrate this sofa, because it is extraordinary.

So Margot and Allison, both BAFTA and Oscar-nominated for I, Tonya.

SOMEONE WHOOPS A round of applause, yes!

And Margot, you're kind of wearing two hats,

because you produce this movie as well.

-Yes.

-Which is a big deal.

-It's a lot of work, yeah!

And obviously, it's a skating movie. There's a lot of ice skating in it.

-So do you do... I mean, how much of it...?

-I was so impressed.

-All of it.

-All of it.

You did all of it? I mean, you must have...

I am competing at the Winter Olympics this season.

No, anything really impressive was not me. Everything else was me.

But you must have done it since you were...

No, I grew up in Australia, there's no ice on the Gold Coast!

And Allison, there you are,

you got armfuls of Emmys

when you played CJ in the West Wing.

-Yeah.

-Because everyone loves the West Wing.

But this is weird, I didn't know that people somehow got confused.

They thought that CJ was real.

They wanted so much of that show to be real.

I mean, we would go on trips from LA to do exteriors in Washington,

we'd go through the airport and people would refer to

Martin Sheen as Mr President and he was happy to, you know, do this.

He loved being called Mr President, I think people...

CJ was such a great, such an iconic female role on television,

this incredibly smart woman operating, you know, at her

best in a male dominated arena

and, um, I got offers for jobs in Washington...

Really?

..a news station and somewhere as a political pundit,

I was like, "Are you aware that I'm an actress and this is just...

"I play CJ on TV, but I cannot..."

You know, "I'm not going to run for office, I can't be a pundit."

But it was extraordinary to me and it also made me

very shy about meeting people, because I'm so not CJ.

Of all the characters I've ever played,

I would most like to be like CJ.

-Well, good luck this weekend with the BAFTAs.

-Thank you.

-And the Oscars.

-Thank you.

Now, Alicia Vikander, there's a sort of smug glow around Alicia,

cos she's WON an Oscar.

The others are just hopefuls thus far. Alicia's got one.

I still don't believe it, really.

For The Danish Girl,

but have you actually been united with the Oscar yet?

This has been a question that has been returning, but I haven't.

I only had one night with Oscar and then...

I had to go back to work, I left LA

and I said to my friend, "I think it's too heavy,

"I can't carry it in hand luggage",

so her daughter...

Can I just say...

I want a bigger level of gratitude than that.

"It's too heavy, I'm not taking it home."

No, it's just because I've been on the move for quite a few years...

I have a lot of shoes in my bag....

So where is it? Just at a friend's house?

I get updates from my friend's daughter, because she has Oscar

in her room, so sometimes I get a little photo of what Oscar is up to.

Not a lot, I imagine.

Daniel Kaluuya, what an amazing year you've had.

Cos this time last year, you know,

this was not going to be the year that was coming.

-This is amazing.

-No, I was just chilling out.

I was chilling...

And then this film came out, I was like,

I was doing this indie horror and...

-No, it's been life-changing.

-Yeah!

And a lot's happened!

So, Oscar-nominated for best actor, but also the BAFTAs this weekend.

Come on, you've got to get something - you're nominated for Best Actor

and Rising Star. That would be too cruel to give you nothing.

I mean, it happened to Craig David at the Brits.

Do you remember when Craig David...?

He was nominated for six Brits and it didn't come home with nothing!

If he can go away with... He had six!

This is two, innit?

That's a good attitude to have.

-But David came back.

-He came back.

It took about 20 years, but he came back!

So that's the plan, man. 20 years later, I'll go,

"Yo, you've got to give me something, man."

You've had some practice now with the big celebrity,

-because of obviously the Golden Globes...

-Yeah.

So who did you meet at the Golden Globes?

Er, how long have you got, man? Just like, so many.

-Did you meet these guys at the Golden Globes?

-Nah.

I met... I met her before at these awards, Governors Awards, and she

was really cool and we just spoke about stuff, it was really nice,

and then, erm...

-Then I met... I met Oprah.

-Good story!

-You were really nice. She was a nice person. It was cool.

-It was nice!

I couldn't believe he was English, because his accent was

so flawless in Get Out and I was like, "Oh, my God."

And any time I meet anyone who's English,

I'm just immediately like, "I love London, I miss it! Do you live there?"

-Ah!

-I do!

-So you talked about London.

-We talked about London.

No, I met...

This is what happened, yes? I met Denzel...

-Ooh!

-I met Denzel and Oprah at the same time.

It was like a segue, just...

I don't know, this African American excellent segue of Black exc...

I don't know what happened.

Denzel came up to me with an English accent, like,

"Cheers, mate" and I'm like, "What's happening?

"How do you know who I am?"

And then he went to his wife, like, "He thinks I don't know who he is!"

And then he goes, "Come and meet Oprah!" And I was like...

Let's meet O!

Then I just hugged her. I hugged her so tightly.

She felt so good, man.

LAUGHTER

-It's not even a joke, she felt good.

-Apparently, she smells...

-She has an amazing smell.

-She smells amazing, Graham. I swear...

-Oprah is just premium. Premium.

-Can the rest of the couch...?

You must have all met Oprah, does she smell amazing?

I've never met Oprah, but when I do,

-I'm going to hug her for sure.

-I didn't smell her.

I met her at the Golden Globes, but she was too far away.

You've got to inhale deeply. Inhale deeply.

We're all going to be following her around, sniffing...

Now I know why there was suddenly such a nice smell in the room.

Yeah, she was really cool. It was really surreal.

Now, the film about Tonya Harding, I, Tonya.

It opens here next Friday.

Margot, you're the best person to tell us the story in a way,

because when you read the script, you didn't know it was a true story.

No, I didn't.

I think probably anyone born after 1990 might not know who

any of these people are,

because I didn't and I got the whole way through the script

thinking, "This is obviously not REALLY based on true events,

"because it is so absurd."

And then I went on the internet and was like,

"Oh, my God, this all happened

"in precise detail" that our writer captured, right down to the

moments, like Allison's character

wearing a fur coat with a bird on her shoulder

doing an interview - like, that actually happened,

you can look it up on YouTube.

There was a lot to go off, thankfully, for us.

And the central story is about her and this...

Her rival, Nancy Kerrigan.

Well, that's the story the world kind of new,

but the film explores what her life really was like and the main

relationships in her life were with her husband Jeff Gillooly

and with her mum, LaVona

and the other ones we focus on.

Of course, the Nancy Kerrigan incident comes into the film

later in the film, but you really start off and see how

she grew up and what those really messed up relationships

were like and how it affected the person she became.

And I guess there's lots of footage of Tonya,

both on the ice and off the ice,

she was an ice skater.

But not so much of the mum, so how do you go about that?

-Do you care about accuracy if you don't have to?

-Well, exactly.

It was kind of liberating...

I would have felt a little intimidated

if I'd had to have met the real woman and I was kind of freed

of that responsibility, so I looked at all the existing footage.

There were a couple of documentaries,

and I just watched them over and over and over again

and listened to the incredible stories that Tonya...

My friend Steven Rogers who wrote it,

he interviewed both Tonya and Jeff Gillooly,

her husband and they disagreed

on absolutely everything except

for LaVona, who she was and how she acted and how she treated Tonya.

So I had those stories

and then I got to make her up myself. I got to create her.

You know, you see this in the film and kind of think that can't be

what she looked like, but then you see the footage at the end...

Yeah, when I read the script,

I said "Steven, how the hell...?

"This wig and the fur coat and the bird and the alcohol -

"how did you think of this, you know, specific look?"

And he said, "Wait, let me just send you a little documentary",

then I looked and that's what this lady wore, that's what she chose.

Cos in this country, we do think Deirdre Barlow. Anyone else?

I'll tell you something. The thing...

The breathing tube, that was my idea at the last minute,

because the bird handler said, "You can't smoke around the bird"

and my character smoked in every scene in this movie

and then we had to shoot this direct address that I do

and the bird handler said no,

and Craig Gillespie, our director, said, "Well, she has to smoke,

"she smokes in every scene", and I asked the prop department

if they had one of those...

I thought, "Well, she must have

"emphysema if she smoked her whole life", so they did,

they had the breathing tube

and the can of oxygen you see is on the couch next to me

during that scene.

And then the bird became fascinated with the breathing tube

and kept pecking at it, the entire time I was doing the scene.

I tried to just not let it bother me

because we only had two hours to shoot that scene and

I was not going to let that bird stop me from telling my story.

It was... Amazing.

Listen, we've got a clip from I, Tonya.

This is Tonya on... I think it's her first date,

or an early date

with her husband-to-be,

but they're not alone.

Are you a gardener or a flower, John?

It's Jeff.

In a relationship, there's a flower and gardener.

Um...

-You don't need to...

-I don't know, I mean, I...

I just thought...

-I'm a gardener who wants to be a flower, how fucked am I?

-Mum!

-What?

You two fuck yet?

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

That was actually...

We were doing coverage of Margot and Sebastian and I was off-camera

and sometimes, when I'm off-camera,

I like to give the people on camera something different to get them...

a reaction, and that was not LeVona's line,

-but I was trying to shock them...

-Not in the script at all.

It wasn't in the script and I just was like, "You two f... yet?"

To get this reaction out of them, so then Craig was like,

"We've got to turn around, we've got to get you again."

I was like, "Oh, no."

Did you even know that we were meant to have our first sex scene

later that night?

-When you said that?

-No.

Oh. OK, because it was very evident

in my mind, "Oh, it's the first one,

"I hope it's not weird or anything like that", so you saying that...

was like...

caught me so by surprise and my face went so red

and Sebastian choked on his drink and I was like...

-It was so good, it got such a good reaction.

-But this mother,

I mean, she is a monster,

but it SORT of comes from a good place or a...

Um, well...!

Yeah. In her mind, yeah.

-Brings the results.

-Yeah.

The ends justify the means - in her mind,

she wants her daughter to have this opportunity to be this incredible

skater, she knows her daughter has undeniable talent

and she wants her to succeed and have the things in life that

come along with the talent that she has and in every way,

she was crossed by either the figure skating community not embracing her,

saying she needed a fur coat and they didn't have money to buy

a fur coat, they didn't have money to...

So she was very frustrated

and knew that her daughter was motivated by being shamed or

needled by saying, "You can't do it, you suck, you're terrible."

It would motivate her to go out and skate better, so yeah,

she's not going to win mother of the year, but I think her...

Her heart was in the right place.

Um...

LAUGHTER

Cos Daniel, your mum's quite into the tough love, isn't she?

She's a beast, man.

Amazing love and care, but she don't care. She's...

It's the reason why...

I remember, there was a time...

I did my first play at the Royal Court and then like,

it was press night, so I was like, "Mum, this is the casting director,

"this is the woman who... The reason I got in the room",

this, that and the other,

and she was like, "When are you going to give him another job?"

LAUGHTER

I'm thinking, "This woman's going to ruin my career right now."

INDISTINCT

She was just like, yeah... The casting director was like...

"When are you going to give him another job? He's not going uni."

"He's not going uni.

"He's ruining his life. You have to give him a job."

"You've made him not go uni... You have to give him another one. When?"

She was like, "Oh, there's some stuff coming up."

She was answering, as well.

And then like, I took her to the Get Out Premiere

and was in the car, chilling,

everyone was, "Good film, yeah..."

And then like, I was like, "Mum,

"what do you think about my American accent?"

She was like, "Nearly there."

LAUGHTER

-Oof!

-She's raw.

But this is the woman you're bringing to the Oscars with you?

Yeah, I have to, man.

That could go horribly wrong, I feel!

That's the fun bit!

I want her to meet random people.

She met Snoop Dogg the other day, it was amazing.

She told me off all my life for playing Snoop Dogg out loud,

and when she met him, she started giggling. I was like, "Look at you!"

"Look at you." I took a picture. It was amazing.

I want to meet your mum, it'd be awesome. I'm going to come say hi.

-It's so funny you're all going to be there.

-We can all hang out again.

Yeah. You'll be at home watching.

-Now, here's the thing - Alicia, your mother was an actress.

-Yeah, she is.

Is. But she was not a pushy mother, she was sort of the opposite.

Yeah, I think anyone who's been in the industry knows how

tough it is, so she was more like, "Are you really,

"like, really, really, really sure?"

You know, when I started out.

I danced for many years and I think she had seen me

being on that route for quite a long time, but, you know,

it's her biggest passion,

so I just saw her do what she did...

Didn't she tried to stop you going to auditions?

Yeah, I mean, when I was...

My first audition, I was probably six or seven

and had been in the theatre where they had this poster up that they

were auditioning for young kids for this musical.

I wanted to go and she was like, "No." That was it.

Then I had to have a fit and scream and lock myself into my room

for some time and then finally,

she agreed for me to begin my career!

-And did you get the part?

-I did.

-Oooh!

GOOD screaming child.

Talking of difficult children,

Margot, I don't know if you

were a terrible child, but do you know the story I'm talking about?

Like you do not win any awards for being a good daughter.

There are many stories where I don't win awards.

I was not a great daughter.

I am forever in my mum's debt because I was...

such a brat and I feel really bad about it.

Tell us the story about when you were on your computer

-and she wanted your help.

-Oh, yes. Yes, OK. I...

I was on MSN, obviously, the most important thing at the time...

God is in the details!

And we moved out, like, out in the sticks

and often snakes would get into the house

and you know, it wasn't a big deal,

but you'd have to chase them around

and get it out, it was time-consuming and annoying.

My mum yelled out and said, "Can you come help me?

"This snake's really big, I can't get it on my own. Can you come help me?"

and I was like, "I'm so busy, Mum. No, I can't."

Just being a brat, and she was like, "Oh, I just...

"Are you sure? Please?"

And I was like, "Be gone."

And, um...

And then she WAS gone, like,

for like, ten minutes, and I was like, "Oh,

"she's been gone for ages."

Then I got up from the computer, I could hear this, "Mm! Mm!"

And I was like, "Oh, God, what's happening?" and I see Mum,

she's made it halfway down the stairs and the snake,

she'd tried to pick this big python up

with a broom and a stick, but it had

wound its way up around her arm

and was going around her neck...

trying to choke her.

I love Australia, but I would never be able to live there!

No, I'm painting a bad picture, it's really not bad, but...!

Anyway, it wasn't a poisonous snake.

But they do... They do strangle you!

-I felt so bad.

-How did you get it off her?

You've just got to give it something else to climb on,

so get a stick or something, it starts weaving its way around that

-and you can transfer its weight...

-Good to know.

-That is a top tip.

-Or you just grab it behind its head...

-They hate that.

Well... You just don't want it to bite you!

-Was your mother OK?

-Yeah, she was fine.

I felt bad and I tried not to be such a brat.

-When Mum asked for help in future, I kind of did it.

-A lesson learned.

-A lesson learned.

-Very good.

Right, let's move on to Alicia's film tonight. Tomb Raider.

It opens Thursday, March 15, and you are the new Lara Croft.

Obviously, not like Tonya Harding, you're not a real person,

but people have such a clear vision of who this woman is.

-Mm-hm.

-You must feel a kind of similar pressure.

Yeah, my breasts are not as pointy as the first version.

No, I mean, yeah, she's been with us for like, what is it? 20, 22 years.

And, I... Yeah... I actually...

-I'm, like, a HUGE fan of Tomb Raider.

-Great!

-I am so excited to see this.

-I was, you know,

-we grew up with MSN...

-Yeah!

-I also grew up in that time where there was

none of my girlfriends who played video games and I kind of kept it...

I was kind of ashamed of doing it.

But I was at my parents' friends' house

and their kids had a PlayStation and I went there and remember

I walked into the room and saw

it was a female protagonist in a video game,

and I had never seen that

and, er, yeah. I was a bit too scared to play the whole game

when I was about ten, so I mostly spent time doing the tricks

and her learning her moves in the Manor,

but no, I was a big fan when I was a kid.

Daniel, are you a big gamer? Do you play a lot of games?

No, cos it ruins my life.

-It just ruins me.

-It's time consuming.

I've got things to do, man. I just...

That's a good answer. I kind of realise that now,

when I did it, because I did play the games before I did the film

and I was like, "Wow, I had way too much time when I was a child."

Listen, we've got a clip.

This is you as Lara Croft

and I believe in this clip you've just raided a tomb.

HE GRUNTS

-Ooh!

-Don't worry, he didn't die.

Was he OK? He's fine!

-How long did you have to train for that?

-So I...

Um, I did about four months

before I started to shoot when I got into...

-Your arms are, like, ripped.

-Yeah, so that's the thing.

It takes four months for me.

I had never lifted a thing with my arms. I did ballet.

Not even an Oscar.

Two hands! That's why you need two hands.

"I can't bring that home."

So it takes about four months to...

I remember my trainer told me,

"They're really underdeveloped."

I was like, "Oh, really? OK."

But then four months later,

you know, he managed.

I told him, "I don't believe you." But, yeah...

You have to do it, because it is non-stop, this movie.

So then it takes three weeks for you to lose it all.

That is the sad bit.

Three weeks to lose?

-Three weeks to just go out of shape?

-Yeah!

-I thought I was going to stay like this!

-That's not fair.

-To get muscle and then to lose it.

-Crazy.

-So unfair.

-That's not fair.

LAUGHTER

-Terrible.

-And now, because you're Swedish, how does that work?

Obviously, you're married to an Irishman now, so...?

Are you learning Irish phrases?

Irish is actually quite close.

A lot of people think I'm Irish because in Sweden, I guess

we have the same Rs.

Yeah.

-Bit of a connection, there.

-And is he learning Swedish phrases?

I wish it was...better.

Yeah. Actually, one thing he likes is...

He came to Sweden and learned that it's a lot of Swedish sayings

that are very commonly used and it's one of those things,

when it's my own language,

I didn't really think about how weird they are, but

he learned about them and was like, "I'm just now going to use those."

It's like saying in Swedish,

"Well, now you're taking a poop in the blue cabinet."

What?!

Yeah. That's like a very common thing.

Or, "Yeah, you can't just expect to walk in,

"sliding in on a shrimp sandwich."

I actually saw politicians when I was back home in Sweden

use that in a debate. In Swedish.

I was like, yeah, that's how...

You can't come in here and slide on a shrimp sandwich?

Yeah, because shrimp is very, like, flashy

in a socialist country, having a shrimp sandwich is very fancy.

So you can't just have your privileges and walk in,

slide in here on a shrimp sandwich.

We have an Australian one - "We're not here to fuck spiders."

LAUGHTER

-What does that MEAN?!

-Let's get on with it!

It would be difficult to try and fuck a spider...

In Australia, you COULD find a spider to fuck!

LAUGHTER

Now, I feel bad that we're talking about this,

because of what we're about to show, which is so sweet.

-I mean, diabetics shouldn't watch this.

-Ah.

This must be your first appearance on television?

Yeah. It's so funny, because I've been watching your show

since I moved here and I thought, "If I ever get on the show..."

I was like, "What is he going to find?"

From my... Because you're all about finding those clips.

-So how old are you here?

-I'm seven or eight.

It's funny, because I hadn't seen this clip until...

There was actually somebody working at a TV channel

I guess in Sweden during the Oscars who had gone down

and found a VHS of this tape,

because I only have my vague memory

of this as a child and I have never seen it until two years ago.

Well, this is amazing.

This is Alicia on...

-Presumably it's Junior Stars In Your Eyes?

-Mm-hm.

So this is Alicia on Junior Stars In Their Eyes.

When she comes out of the smoke, you won't know who she is.

APPLAUSE Hey, how are you?

-AUDIENCE:

-Aw!

SHE SINGS IN SWEDISH

CHEERING

APPLAUSE She won!

-You're very proud.

-Actually...

Little thing about the job that I locked myself in the room,

that I begged to go to the audition to,

that was the musical, that was not my part,

but that was the woman playing my mother in that musical,

so I mimed her song. Looked up to her a lot.

-But she's a famous Swedish...?

-She's a very famous singer.

Swedish person. Now, Daniel's film is the latest hit from Marvel,

Black Panther. It's out now.

And, I mean, this film is doing such amazing business.

It's sort of beating everything before it, isn't it?

Yeah, but I have a theory. I have a theory.

It's that I think there's some artist that said, "Don't pirate it."

They always said, "Don't pirate it," so loads of people are just

not pirating it, and they're going to the cinema to watch it.

-And also, it's an experience.

-Yeah.

It's something to watch with people.

-Because it's quite wild.

-And, but also, without doubt,

it's the best reviewed Marvel film of all time.

-I mean, these reviews are crazy.

-Yeah, it's nice. It's very nice.

Yeah! OK, so tell us about the story and who you play in the story?

Erm, the story is about T'Challa, who's the Black Panther,

whose dad dies in a previous Marvel film,

and he has to take over the throne,

because the dad was the King of Wakanda.

He's taken over the throne and he has to be the king

with these powers and has the responsibility,

but there's new enemies coming in.

But Wakanda is this place, and I play W'Kabi,

who's the leader of the Border Tribe that protects the border.

Because nobody is allowed to be in Wakanda,

so that it keeps its resources within Africa.

So this is a fictional African country that keeps its resources,

so it's like one of the richest countries in the world.

But in order to do that, it needs to be protected and no-one knows

about it outside of Wakanda, and we have to keep that secret.

Listen, we've got a clip.

This is you and some of the other tribal leaders discussing a problem.

Ulysses Klaue plans to sell the Vibranium to an American buyer

in South Korea tomorrow night.

Klaue has escaped our pursuits for almost 30 years.

Not capturing him is perhaps my father's greatest regret.

I wish to bring Klaue back here to stand trial.

Wakanda does not need a warrior right now. We need a king.

My parents were killed when he attacked.

Not a day goes by when I do not think about what Klaue took from us.

-From me.

-It's too great an opportunity to pass.

Take me with you. We'll take him down together, side-by-side.

I need you here, protecting the border.

Then I ask, you kill him where he stands, or you bring him back to us.

You have my word.

I will bring him back.

CHEERING

And...

-But, of course, it is a superhero movie.

-Yeah.

And with superhero movies come those costumes,

you get the superhero costumes.

So you must have been very excited to think, "What's my costume?"

Yeah, and then I had to wear it.

I had all this armour. I looked like an African Jedi,

so I had all this armour and stuff. And then I had to have a blanket.

It's flippin' Blanket Man.

Like, because we shot it in Atlanta,

and it was so hot! It was just so hot.

But I had to act really cool, because I'm in a superhero movie.

So we were like, "Yeah, yeah." But, like, just sweat...

My make-up was going all over my eyes and I was blinking like this.

It wasn't a sexy moment for me, I tell you that.

Now, a lot of the reviews are talking about how this film

is kind of a game changer.

I mean, was there a sense amongst the cast and the crew that you were

doing something kind of important when you were making this film?

Yeah, because it's an African superhero movie!

I've never seen that in my life.

I felt that on set. We had this waterfall scene

and it's basically Chad, T'Challa's getting the coronation.

And then everyone starts singing, like...

Hundreds of extras start singing and drumming. I just got chills.

I was just like, "I've never..."

My inner child was like, "Oh, my God, if I saw this as a kid,

"I wouldn't feel such a weirdo."

You feel weird when you grow up

because there's nothing that looks like you on TV.

And this is, like, 90% of the cast have an African accent,

including Andy Serkis.

It's like, everyone's like, you know...

It's just this kind of... When I first watched it,

my inner child was so happy that this exists.

Yeah, I think the reaction from people is going to be amazing.

I mean, this movie will have such a life. Yeah, congratulations.

-Thank you.

-Yeah, seriously.

CHEERING

Now, talking of game-changing things, Daniel,

we must mention your last movie, for which you are Oscar-nominated,

-Get Out. AUDIENCE:

-Whoo!

Yes, look at you clapping!

-How many times have you seen this film?

-I've seen it three times.

-You've seen it three times?

-Two times.

-I love it so much.

-One of my West Wing, Brad...

-Bradley!

Yeah, I just saw him in the picture. I was going to say.

I love that guy, man.

Him and Catherine Keener are all... And Jordan Peele.

I love all... They're all amazing. It's a great movie.

I have to say, I avoided watching it,

because I thought it was going to be a proper horror.

Because the poster made me think it was like Saw or something.

But it's so funny and great frights, it's brilliant.

But because you were filming Black Panther,

were you aware of how big the movie was getting?

I kind of ignore things. I kind of pretend things are not happening.

But it came out on my birthday. It came out on my birthday

and I was out. My girl was there, who's in Atlanta.

And I was like, "We've got to watch it, innit?"

And we went to the hood, in Atlanta.

Like, we wanted to go right to the heart of it.

Because Jordan really had people,

African-American black audiences, in mind when he wrote this.

And we were just sitting there. I snuck in.

With my hat low, snuck in. And I was sitting there at the back,

and then the reactions were just crazy.

There's a bit when I'm trying to get out of the house

and this woman goes, "Get the girlfriend, get the girlfriend!

"Get the girlfriend, man!" Or they'd be like, "He's stupid!"

It's funny, man. It was funny. It was good times, man.

But, yeah, I was so...

Then I just went back to set, so I just ignored.

I didn't know it was a thing until I came back here.

Yeah, but I like the story.

Allison Williams, your co-star, she gave you a bit of a complex on set.

-She didn't. It was the make-up woman.

-Oh?

-She's cool, but... You're talking about the kissing, innit?

-Yes.

Yeah, so I was...

I was doing the kissing scene. I don't know if you guys...

No-one in England does this, yeah?

Doing a kissing scene and just before it, they would give me...

-A mint.

-A mint.

-Yeah.

-I was like, "Cool. Why are you giving me...?"

-I didn't know.

I had my co-actor, suddenly before a scene like that,

they came up and gave a mint,

and I didn't know if I was going to take it as a, like, a nice thing

to do or is it just like,

"Oh, my God, he thinks my breath is horrendous."

-Yeah!

-Have to have a little rinse!

I took it. I took it. I was like, "Oh, yeah, cool."

And we did another take, she gave me another mint. I was like...

"I fixed it!"

The first time, I fixed it. You're giving me it again,

have I got a problem? Like, have I got a chronic problem!

Every time she gave me it, I was like, "What?"

Then she didn't talk to me for the rest of the day

because I was like, "Why are you giving me mints?" But, you know...

-So, in England, we don't do that?

-No.

-Really?

-It's just method.

-It is what it is.

-Australia? Mints, no mints?

No, it was a thing that I discovered in America.

I was like, "Wow, everyone's considerate about..."

I tell you what's worse than mints is someone...

I'm not going to name names, because...

But someone I had to kiss insisted that before we kiss...

..either he or I had to put Neosporin on our lips.

-What's that?

-Really?

We're in England!

-Neosporin, like...

-Well, it's kind of...

-Is it like Vaseline?

..an ointment, an antibacterial ointment, to heal.

It's something you put on. People put it around their noses

-when they fly, so they don't get sick.

-It's like Vaseline, right?

-It's not Vaseline. It's got...?

-Is that Vicks? Vicks?

-Oh, is it like hand sanitiser?

-No!

Just Google it! Look it up. It's called Neosporin.

And you have to put it...

On the lips, so you don't pass any germs or anything.

-It was really...

-Everyone's so germophobic in America.

..creepy. I guess it's an American thing.

-ALICIA:

-So, definitely no tongue, then?

-Yes.

I didn't know that one time.

Apparently it's bad etiquette to put your tongue in. I didn't know that.

Someone told me, yeah?

I was just doing it, because I thought, "We're keeping it real."

Suddenly... They were like...

Someone was saying, apparently if you fancy them,

-you put your tongue in.

-Yeah.

-That's what someone told me,

and I was like, "Oh, shit, I've been sticking my tongue in."

I think someone told me early on, thankfully.

"Don't stress about it, but no tongue." And I was like,

"Oh, got it." I always say to other people.

"It's all cool, but no tongue."

-But why wouldn't someone tell you that?

-Why wouldn't?

Well, someone should have told you that before you put the tongue in.

No, but this is, like, years later.

I found this out after a random conversation.

Someone said you're not supposed to put your tongue in.

I was like, "What?"

My life's a lie.

Actually, I have to say,

and I think it's probably very good advice for actors.

Because you got kissing tips from a great, Allison?

-One of the greatest.

-Yes.

-One of the greatest,

Meryl Streep, I had to kiss in a movie called The Hours.

And she was not happy with the way a certain scene was being lit,

and we had to kiss and she said, "I'm going to do you a favour.

"You're going to thank me for it later."

-Can I demonstrate on you?

-On me?

-Yeah.

-Of course you can. Yes, please. No tongues!

-Do you want a mint?

-Oh, yeah, I need a mint.

Or a pineapple. OK. All right, where's the best camera angle?

There's loads of them, loads of cameras. That one's probably...

-There we are.

-That's our camera?

-That's our camera right there.

OK, so, you know,

I have these nasal labial folds, they call them, these here.

And they look better when they're pulled back,

so she came in to kiss me, and she went like this.

Hmm! AUDIENCE YELP

I look fabulous!

I look 15.

Thank you so much. Oh!

So that's what she did for me.

And it did, she pulled my face back and kissed me.

You can go watch the movie. It's very funny to see that.

I'll watch it again, and now I really want you to win the Oscar,

because I kissed you!

Right, it's time for music.

And since leaving girl group Fifth Harmony,

this woman's solo career has gone from strength to strength.

Here, performing one of the most popular songs of the year,

Havana, it's Camila Cabello!

APPLAUSE

Camila Cabello! Fantastic job!

-How are you?

-How great was that?

-Thank you!

-Congratulations.

-That was so great. Come and say hello to everybody.

-Hi, everybody!

This is Daniel, Alicia, Allison, Margot.

-Thank you so much.

-So wonderful.

-Thank you so much.

-That was so good.

Thank you. I love you.

-Everyone loves that song.

-Oh, thank you.

-We were very excited on the couch.

-Oh, wow! Oh, thanks, guys.

-It's hard not to stare at you.

-You don't need that now.

-OK, got it. I'm so used to it.

-Do a mic drop, a mic drop.

-There you go!

-Was it good?

-Thank you.

-Killed it.

-So that's from the album Camila.

-Whoo, thank you! You say my name right.

-Is that right?

-A lot of British people tend to say it another way.

-OK.

-Camilla, but it's not.

-No, but it's Camila.

I don't know why I had that example.

So, the album's called Camila, which is out now.

So, here's the thing, I hear that you are a fan of British television,

which seems very unlikely. But you come here and you like...

-You love it.

-Why are you booing?

All right, we all have to watch it, I understand that!

-The woman likes it. Let her.

-No, I really like how they do the...

Erm, like ITV2 when they do the,

-ENGLISH ACCENT:

-"Coming up next on ITV2!"

I love that they're very excited about what's coming up next.

-You just watch that bit?

-Yeah.

-Not the shows, just the thing.

No, just that, and I go to the next channel,

and I wait for it to come around again.

Yeah, but that's my favourite thing about British television, I think.

Well, thank you for that ringing endorsement.

"That was The Graham Norton Show." I loved that bit!

-No!

-So, tell me this.

-You're doing your first solo tour, which is a big, big deal.

-Yeah!

-AUDIENCE WHOOP

-Yay!

No, I'm really excited.

-Are you paying them?

-I know! My mom.

-Do they follow you?

Yeah, I'm really excited.

It's my first time doing a tour by myself,

and I feel like that's the best manifestation of songs.

Where are you going on your tour?

I'm coming here in June, which is really exciting.

-You're kicking off in Glasgow, I believe?

-Yeah.

-In at the deep end, OK.

-I know!

I'm excited.

-And I feel like by the end of it...

-Tough crowd!

..I'll have a good British accent, I think.

-Well, your "coming up on ITV2" is very good.

-It's good, right?

-Yeah, that's excellent.

-It wants to hear it again?

-Go on, then. AUDIENCE:

-No, no!

-OK.

"Will Camila do the ITV2 accent again?

"We'll find out, coming up next on ITV2."

-Very good.

-Thanks!

-Excellent.

Listen, thank you so much for that great performance

-and good luck with the tour.

-Thank you.

-Camila, Camila?

-Yes!

-I don't want to get it wrong now, after being so good.

-No, you're killing it.

-Camila Cabello.

Thank you so much for having me. Nice to meet you guys.

That is nearly it for tonight.

Before we go, we've got time for a quick visit to the big red chair.

-Who's there? Hello, sir! What's your name?

-I'm Steve.

-Steve, lovely, and where are you from, Steve?

-From Surrey.

-What do you do in Surrey?

-I own a cafe.

-You own a cafe, lovely.

-Do you want to tell us what it's called?

-Ockham Bites in Cobham.

OK, see, that's marketing right there!

We'll cut that out, but it was a nice thing for me to do, wasn't it?

For a minute there, he thought it was going to be on BBC One,

but it's not.

OK, off you go with your story, sir.

OK, many years ago, my father emigrated to the south of France

with his family and his pet parrot, Jasper.

They stayed for about five years and then decided to come back to the UK.

My dad couldn't be bothered with all the pet passport things,

so he smuggled Jasper back in his car, in the boot of his car.

About five months down the line, the parrot got very ill,

my dad had to take him to the vet and one of the questions of the vet

had was, "Has Jasper ever been out of the UK?"

And my dad said, "No, not at all."

Anyway, the parrot had to stay overnight and in the morning,

my dad got a phone call saying everything's fine,

you can come and collect Jasper.

My dad went to collect the parrot and after he paid her everything,

the vet said, "Are you sure Jasper's never been out of the UK?"

My dad said, "Yes, why?"

"Because I came down this morning and he said, 'Bonjour.'"

That's not true. That's not true.

That didn't happen. That didn't happen.

Can we squeeze in another one? OK, squeeze in one more. Here we go.

-Hello!

-Hi.

-Hi. Who are you?

-I'm Laura.

-Laura, lovely.

And where are you from, Laura?

-I'm from North Wales but I live in London.

-All right, what do you do?

-I'm an outreach worker.

-An outreach worker, OK.

Off you go with your story.

When I was a young, I used to sweat a lot, just under my arms.

So I used to wear panty liners to cover it up, which I think is

-a great idea. I should have gone on Dragons Den with it.

-Very smart.

But as I was walking to this bar one night,

I saw an ex across the room who I had dumped,

and he was there with a new girlfriend, and I walked up

to him, thinking, "I best be polite, be the bigger person."

So I went up, was chatting away, but I started to get really nervous,

using my arms a lot and was flapping around.

And as I lifted my arms up and put them back down,

the panty liners flew out of my arms,

swung around in the middle and landed right in front of us.

With the two of them just looking at them, and looking at me.

And looking at them, and I just had to walk off.

Oh, shall we let her walk? That's a yes! You can walk!

I really wanted to be flipped.

Oh, you want to be flipped? OK, here we go.

There you go.

Well done, everyone. If you'd like to join us on the show

and have a go on that red chair,

you can contact us via our website at this very address.

That, sadly, is it for tonight.

Please say thank you to all my guests. Camila Cabello!

Daniel Kaluuya!

Alicia Vikander!

Allison Janney.

And Margot Robbie!

We are taking a short break, but we'll be back on your TVs in April.

Do join me next week for a look back at some of the highlights

from this series.

I'll see you then. Goodnight, everybody. Bye-bye!
