When I was 10, my parents took me to a small farmer's sale. We were going to a small farmers sale and we took the Ute there. Dad was looking for some animals and things to take home to our farm. And so anyway, him and mum spotted this little dining room table, and I was just wandering around in my jandals, and you know, just checking out the stuff. Mum and dad spotted this table and chairs, that they thought that's gonna be perfect in the dining room. We put it on the back of the Ute, and we go home, and us boys are sitting (me and my two brothers) are sitting up on the back of the Ute, in the chairs, in the dining room chairs. Dad thinks it'd be a good idea "Oh I know what we'll do, do you boys want some ice-cream out the back?" ya know. So we're like "yeah absolutely, we'll have ice-cream". Next thing you know, we're all sitting there, licking our ice-creams, sitting on the back. Dad decides (seeing a bit of Formula 1) he'd like to take the corner probably a bit quicker than he should have. Me on my chair ... bang fall down on the road
I love how sweet Helena Is so sweet IRL that even after he had finished telling a story of her dancing around and singing naked she was trying to make it so he didn't get flipped... She played an amazing Bellatrix I think... and tbh I have only ever seen her in other roles where she has been an antagonist so it was kinda awesome to see he be such a genuinely nice person.
Try the new Netflix movie “Enola Holmes”. Helena plays Enola’s mother. Not the biggest role, but the movie itself (and Helena of course) is quite charming.
I was talking to my Kiwi friend once, and he told me he had to “pick up his beard”, I nod as if I thought this was a normal thing, and then about halfway through the conversation I exclaimed “Oh, bed! You went to pick up your bed!”
@@Britenus “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only *I* will remain.” ― Frank Herbert, Dune Hope this quote helps, I highly recommend Dune, it's a great book.
About 10 years ago I was in the Waikato Hospital (in New Zealand) with a family member. The nurse that was attending to us was very busy with another patient. That patient had just cut off multiple fingers by picking up his lawnmower to cut his hedge. I wonder if this is the same story.
No. Paramedic said it was In the UK and it's unlikely there'd be two of them in hospital at the same time here. Think it's more likely to be universal stupidity.
Graham was so prompt with the lever when the guy said "she told me not to tell the story..". Any hint of causing embarassment to the guest, his guards are up. He's a great host!!
For somebody who was born in NZ, thank you for this tribute compilation. NZ Red Chair stories aren't always enjoyable to watch, because I too, thought it was normal than the rest. However, somehow our stories get walk offs, only because they're told in a way only Kiwi's could understand them. It's weird and super mental, other countries think we sound like sheep, when we do not. We just have alot of Mixed Nationalities in our country.
It’s not the way they talk it’s actually that the stories are good. For example the paramedics one. If you see other Graham red chair compilations he always loves stories which are weird or have a dark funny theme to them.
My gf and I have been having the MOST fun watching these compilations! She's new to the show and I'm enjoying watching segments again as I've been a loyal viewer almost a decade now. Graham is hands down, feet up, the BEST chat show presenter of the day and arguably the greatest to have ever done it. Hope all is well with the entire team at the Graham Norton Show and we can't wait for whatever you've got coming next! In our house, "You Are Very Welcome, Indeed!" Cheers!! 🤟🏿✌🏿
Not only Maori but a Shearer as well and you would probably not believe half of the stories untill a second person can confirm the story which makes it way more funny 😉
On a bad day or a sad day I can count on The Graham Norton show to give me a laugh that always helps. I wish there was something half as good in North America.
This Dunk who did the poo is a Radio presenter for The Rock radio station in New Zealand and he admitted this live on the Rocks Breakfast radio show :-) was a few years ago that this happened.
I once heard a linguist being interviewed on Radio New Zealand, talking about how kiwi accents have changed over time. She mentioned “Tin Man” saying she thought it was interesting the way he ramped up the accent and vocabulary when he realised how much people were enjoying it. Yes, a great red chair story 😀
I'm a New Zealander and it's so confusing hearing everyone laugh, because they just sound like they're talking normally and I'm sitting here like "Wait what? what's so funny?"
To be fair, I'm Canadian and I also don't really understand why it's so funny. It's just an accent. I don't think it really warranted that much of a reaction. lol
I was laughing my lungs out but at the end looking at Chadwick......i felt tear gathering up in my eyes All this time we didn't know what he was going through...... He was legend
@@randomdude4669 Yeah I'm aware that we have accents, but unless I really focus I can't hear a Kiwi accent. But we get a lot of overseas media exposure in NZ, so if I watch TV the hosts having American or English accents is 'normal' and I don't really hear them, that is until an actual Kiwi accent comes on which kinda drives home the accent difference.
It's because he said he was from Putney at the start so everybody was expecting a London accent. The "When I was ten" part is when we fist hear that it is very much not a London accent. And then the guy just doesn't address it for the entire story. I'm sure you would laugh is somebody claimed to be from Wellington and then came out with a broad Texan accent for example.
As a kiwi, they sound completely normal and I'm watching the reaction moreso than the story 😂 also go us for telling bloody good stories ( they rarely are good on the red chair)
YeH this true kiwi. Nobody can't understand what I'm saying because i say things wrong.. Im saying things right. New Zealand rocks. So lucky to be a kiwi
Sometimes I wonder why I do understand the stories being a foreigner and they cannot. I am Mexican and the only parts I didn’t understand is because everyone was laughing hahaha. Does anyone relate? 😂
As a New Zealander, it's harder to enjoy them because they just sound normal
True as, the NZ fullas say something and then the people laugh and I am like "why, what's funny?". All well lol
Yeah, Nah, Yeah...
Honestly, I understand the Kiwis better than a lot of the Brits. LOL!
Kiwis just don't understand why everyone is in hysterics when they tell you they were out polishing their deck on the weekend
Them laughing at the first guy, I was like wtf he's not even funny lol
I died when the second guy just got up and walked before they'd decided if he could or not 🤣🤣
Same!
Yeah, it was like, “Who needs them? I know that was funny; I’m just gonna walk now.”
Sir Patrick said he could walk and he did so. No-one questions Captain Picard.
He got up and walked because they were flaffing around with their decision.
I'd hire him on that basis alone: someone who makes a solution, when everyone else is just staying in the problem.
