GRAHAM Norton has used his self-isolation period to finish writing his third novel, titled Home Stretch.
Taking to Instagram, the Irish comedian and TV presenter revealed the first page of the book and shared: “Now what do I do? #lockdown #newbook #homestretch.”
Graham’s first novel, Holding, was released in 2016 while his second, A Keeper, hit bookshelves in 2018.
He has also penned two autobiographies and a 2010 self-help book called Ask Graham: He’s Been Everywhere, He’s Seen Everything. Now Graham Norton’s Here to Solve Your Problems!
As the nation quarantines itself away amid the worldwide coronavirus pandemic, Graham made the most of some free time by finishing the novel and just in time for the BBC to announce the return of Graham Norton’s chat show with a variety of virtual guests in an attempt to stay safe.
The BBC announced a brand new format which will see the Irish presenter filmed live whilst interviewing celebrities from his home via video link.
This alternative style is an attempt to combat the recent coronavirus fears which forced several high profile stars to cancel plans to appear on the show.
Just a few days ago producers said they did not know how to fill the sofa for the BBC1 chat show, due to resume in April.
Now fans can breathe easy as its return is confirmed alongside the announcement of a Eurovision special, also hosted by Graham.
A selection of the much-loved singing competition’s finest moments will air in May instead of the cancelled live final.
Have I Got News For You will also return next month with hosts Ian Hislop and Paul Merton but it’s expected to be without a live audience.
There will also be new episodes of news satire show, The Mash Report.
