Great news! But I wish Indian channels would learn from this show. Our talk shows feel so scripted and formal. Graham makes everything so relaxed and entertaining.

Been watching since college days! The way he handles multiple guests together is brilliant. Hope they get more Indian celebrities too - Priyanka Chopra was great when she appeared!

Honestly, while I enjoy the show, I feel the quality has dipped slightly in recent seasons. Still better than most talk shows, but hope they bring back the magic of earlier years.
