Producers won’t allow me drop camp role, says Norton

HE has made his name with his innuendo-laden humour, but Graham Norton has suggested that TV producers are not letting him drop his camp on-screen role.

Norton, 43, who was poached by the BBC for a reported £3.5 million (€5m), developed his trademark style on Channel 4 show So Graham Norton.

Since moving to the BBC, he has developed a tamer style with shows like Strictly Dance Fever and the late-night topical chatshow The Bigger Picture.
