Oh absolutely :) Graham said "I bumped into you in Heaven!" Heaven is a gay nightclub in London. Judi said "They let us in the back door!" and Graham decided to be cheeky (no surprise there! LOL) and replied "They WOULD, wouldn't they?!" Basically, "back door" is a way of referring to anal sex. Hope that helps! ;)
That is one of those moments when you realize why Graham is such great host, microseconds for a great answer, followed by a witty remark by SIR Elton John
Damn Graham is so sharp. Judi says “They let us in the back door”, Graham then pops off a joke in a split second that has the audience roaring and then his guest in Elton John is comfortable to follow up with his own joke. This is why he’s the best, he rarely interrupts his guests and when he does it’s usually for a good reason, everyone seems to be enjoying themselves on the show and of course they get to drink throughout
"Do you still go clubbing, do you still cut a rug?" "I've never ever been to a club in my life" "Judi you lie like a rug" "Oh, do I" I love her reaction.
You're sooo right I'm not British but I'm so obsessed with them!! ;____; They're so different to Americans! Still after year 2000 uk still creates amazing tv shows, music and films, i'm so proud of my being British at heart ;__;
Notice how lots of female Brit actors 'of a certain age' are just so damn funny?! Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Helen Mirren, Miriam Margolyes etc. Idk why I think they should be really stuffy but I always end up 😂😂😂 at their 'real life' interviews.
I love how much fun Elton is having here, he finds Judy entertaining and interesting and chimes in on Graham's anecdotes because he's legitimately interested. Great guy just having a laugh on a talk show.
Thats because aside from talk shows, when Elton is away from talk shows he rarely talks about himself, he just wants to know all about YOU and what you are doing. His husband said that he thought before meeting EJ, that hed be a vapid self absorbed Superstar and he was kind and genuinely interested in all his guests.... and shy.... Just think how that must have felt! David was a big fan in the 70s and then he met EJ and all EJ wanted was to ask David about himself and that combined with EJs fantastic wit and charisma, Im sure it was a lovely evening.
If I haven't absolutely lost it yet on my millionth repeat viewings of this, when Graham puts up his hand to note he knows the answer to why she was there will get me, every time.
Elton and Graham...god you have to love that "gay humor"! I was laughing my tits off watching this. "They took us in through the back door" by Judy and then Grahams nonchalant response, priceless!
J Malcom Fortescue the reference to taking someone in through the back door is not an exclusively gay reference. it can be used to signify gay and straight sex.
Judi Dench is one of the most versatile, amazing actresses on earth, always gives an outstanding performance in everything she’s in. Only reason anyone saw Shakespeare in love was because of her glorious performance.
It’s clips like this that just go to prove why Graham Nortons chat show is the best one, not only in the UK but around the world. Because it’s shown after the UK watershed of 9pm guests can relax, don’t have to worry about their language or stories and they just have fun.
She is quite possibly the most adorable person I've ever seen.
She really is!
You too.
it's always fun when she's on his show. same with miriam margolyes.
Nikhil Thomas Seriously, does she have dementia?
She could fix Brexit
Watching this after 9 years, and it's still one of the greatest moments in TV history.
This clip makes life worth living.
Couldn't agree more with you.
Well, that's depressing.
@@bfg3890 just a modern style exaggeration nothing more
@@bfg3890 Yup, if thi8s is what his life is worth living for, he shouldn't even bother !
I love how pleased Elton Looks with himself after his joke.
"They took us in through the back door!"
"They would, wouldn't they?!"
LMFAO!!!!
+IrishEyes1989 can you tell me what that joke means? not english speaker here :)

his timing is flawless

@@IrishEyes1989 One of the rare instances where explaining a joke doesn't make it any less funny.
Graham's "wouldn't they" is one of the quickest quips I've ever seen.
Graham is astonishingly fast. Lee Mack is the only person I’ve seen faster
He is so witty and quick!

Yes. We did watch it.

@@grahameroberts8109 don't be a dick.
This show feels like a bunch of friends having casual conversations! It's one of a kind!
Graham said he serves drinks to get relax guests enough to talk
Oh yes, that's right! I love how she is so surprised by her own life. I love Dame Judy and Graham Norton so much.❤
' Oh yes thats right' ohh Judi, gotta love her
"Do you still go clubbing, do you still cut a rug?"
"I've never ever been to a club in my life"
"Judi you lie like a rug"
"Oh, do I"
I love her reaction.

The amount of natural comedy and quick-wit in this clip is unbelievable
Only Graham would say something like "Judi Dench, you lie like a rug!" 😂
With love!
"The story of her life." Damn, Sir Elton! Quick with the wit!
Marcos Martinez with the her being Graham?
@@heythere6633 yeah we all know that thanks for pointing out the obvious. You have just been elected the new captain obvious congratulations tool

@@tingtingli2362 straight that's not negativity just pointing out the obvious you can think any way you want.
@@robertlongwill8856 You should report back to school, because you obviously never learned the meaning of a question mark (this squiggly thing: ?)
"Oh, do i?" Dame Judi Dench is an absolute gem. Love her so much!
She's simply the best ❤❤
"Oh yes that's right!!"
I just want to give her a cuddle. She'd be the best Grandma
And Sir Ian McKellen would be the best grandpa.
This clip makes life worth living.
Or Patrick Stewart
Dame Judy Dench is an international treasure ❤❤❤
Judi Dench is amazing!
"Judi Dench, you lie like a rug!"
+emercycrite like a rogue
+Lazare Lazarov it's actually rug... it's an Irish saying rugs lie on the floor..
Ha!
Lazare Lazarov And now you know.
I loved that.
Eltons' reaction when Judy goes:"That's a good question too...". So sweet.

Everything about this is so funny, Judi not remembering, THEN remembering, plus the innuendos. love it
I wish American television was this cool! I love Graham Norton!
I agree - American television sucks! Love the Brits and their sense of humour!
Lydia Lilli - Depends on the show.
@@AmandaFromWisconsin sorry, American tv sucks. Thank goodness for britbox and acorntv
@@lydialilli4351 I think Graham is Irish actually. Humour is still far more natural than American hosts
Absolutely. I tried watching a couple but couldn’t stand the pretentious laughs and boring jokes….
I love Graham's transition from host to friend telling a highlight story 😂😂😂
She is adorable. Love this woman.
She is just the sweetest woman on earth, plane and simple
✈️
Graham's face when Judi says she's never been clubbing is priceless
She has so many memories and such history, who can blame her for getting confused. At least she is so sweet about it.
If I haven't absolutely lost it yet on my millionth repeat viewings of this, when Graham puts up his hand to note he knows the answer to why she was there will get me, every time.
If ever youre feeling sad. Watch this. Its pure joy.
JUDI " dont ask me any more questions "
GN. " don't worry I've got all the answers " lots of lovely laughs. A real tonic
Today I am feeling very low. I came back to this video. I feel a little better ❤
This whole conversation was hilarious
I've watched this so many times and I still makes me smile and Dame judi just was my heart and makes me want to give her the biggest hug
She's an incredibly endearing human.
The best Judi Dench moment in The Graham Norton Show ever!!!!
I just love her. Every time she's on the show, she's so funny.
‘I’m gay and I’ve never been to heaven and I’m never getting there either’ 🤣🤣got to love Elton John
Judi made me laugh during that whole 40 minutes show... She's the sweetest person.
She always makes me smile
Dame Judi Dench - National Treasure

“Story of her life” - Elton John underrated in this clip 😂
What does that joke mean?
@@makahadamasa2732 Graham Norton is gay he is making fun of him
@@makahadamasa2732 Really can't work that one out yourself?
Underrated by whom ?

I like how it came back to her more and more.
oh i love Dame Judi Dench
She's utterly adorable!
"Wouldn't they?" :3 Graham's expression at that perfect rejoinder is so marvelous.
This clip is pure gold.

@@Fcutdlady Yeah in this case it signified gay sex, you dumb dumb
@@Fcutdlady True, but they were talking about Heaven night club which is the most famous gay club in London!

I’ve watched this too many times all these years and still laugh every time 😂 adorable!❤
This is just TV gold in so many ways.
Judi is wonderful - as always!
I hadn’t really noticed before how short Elton’s arms are!
I love the expression of John Bishop! He looks like a kids watching his favourite idols. Cute!
This is my favourite video on the internet.
Every time I see Judi Dench laughing I instantly feel 100% happier.
She certainly seems like she leads a fabulous life. She’s a treasure.
How relatable is this to your gran when you reminded her of stuff she did but forgot. RIP gran
Sir elton john and dame judi dench both living legends
Quite possibly one of the funniest 90 seconds of TV ever.
This was one of the best line-ups!
I had forgotten that Judi Dench and Cher starred together in the film Tea with Mussolini.
And a very good film it was!
Yes! And Maggie Smith!
I watch it everyday in the morning and at night.. never tired of Judi
She is fantastic a true legend
May you live forever, Dame Judi
MY SENTIMENTS PRECISELY!
"You were there to see Cher, the singer Cher" is exactly how I talk to my grandma
Still kept me laughing everytime I watch this clip. 😂😂😂
Awww she's so adorable!
It is always great when she's on this show!!
