Graham Norton, an Irish comedian and talk show host, is set to take a long break from The Graham Norton Show.
He will be traveling for his show An Evening With Graham Norton where he will be discussing his career, sharing comedic stories as well as engaging with the audience.
The host revealed his replacement to be Claudia Winkleman from The Traitors on BBC.
She responded to the announcement by joking, “I apologise in advance!,” adding, “I am always very nervous that people aren't watching and then incredibly grateful that they are. I feel about Traitors like people feel about an offspring – you're so glad when people love it.”
Winkleman continued, “I can't say much but the producers are so clever and there are lots of twists and turns coming.”
Additionally, Winkleman also shared her thoughts on the comments she’s been receiving about her style on The Traitors, “We always like to have a muse – for Strictly it has been Anita Dobson and this year it was Demis Roussos. For Traitors it's Princess Anne meets Sarah Brightman. We've already decided on next year's – I'll be dressing as Gerald from Clarkson's Farm!”
Graham Norton will be making his way to Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne and Brisbane while he tours Australia.
