Just a few hundred of my closest guests

Oh Lily Cole. Bless her M&S contract. She may be a student at Cambridge but she’s still a model at heart. As she proved last night on The Graham Norton Show. Which is rapidly turning into a celebrityJust a Minute/Gladiators style tussle between the hundred or so guests that they squeeze onto the sofa each week.

Honestly, they move it to BBC1 and suddenly every Tom, Dick and M&S model wants to be on it. Though why it couldn’t have been Erin I don’t know, at least she can arch her back and still hold a conversation.

There’s a very good reason why models don’t do interviews… they are utter morons. And they don’t recognize Very Good Television like The Supersizers Eat when they see it. How Dame Sue Perkins didn’t give in to the urge to slap La Cole after her “How very method-acting of you” comment, I’ll never know. History of Art indeed.

There were other guests of course, Isabella Rossellini popped in for a chat about her latest career move – shrimp sex. And in one fell swoop destroyed all hope of a credible career in Lily Cole’s mind. Still, she’ll always have her History of Art degree to fall back on.

And then, as a thousand angels cried tears of joy, Michael BOOBLAY appeared and all was well in the world.

He talked about touching Oprah, he got two women flat on their backs and legs akimbo within a few seconds of meeting them, and he talked about meeting the heirs apparent to the Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen Children of the Corn twin horror crowns - John and Edward and their lack of sex education. And generally just looked quite hot. Which will do me. And in any case, he looked as if he’d finally reached his goal weight after having that last bout of Stomach Flu.

To see the hilarity ensue, catch up on iPlayer
