Graham Norton has given a firm “eh, no” to presenting The Late Late Show, making it clear that the celebrated TV personality and author would find presenting RTÉ’s flagship show “so hard”.

When asked by radio host Brendan O’Connor if he would be tempted to return to Ireland to host the Late Late after current host Ryan Tubridy steps down, Norton responded: “Eh, no.”
