The Graham Norton Show 19 December 2025

For Episode 11 of Series 33, Graham welcomed Hollywood stars Jack Black and Paul Rudd to promote their horror reboot Anaconda. Irish actress Jessie Buckley appeared on the show to talk about playing Shakespeare's wife in the drama Hamnet. Graham welcomed actress and comedian Michelle de Swarte to discuss her BBC sitcom Spent, and Tom Odell performed "When I Close My Eyes" from his current album, A Wonderful Life (Epilogue). Let's take a look at some of the outfits from this week's show.

Graham Norton

On the show this week, Graham looked very festive in a sparkly gold-and-black, houndstooth-patterned, slim-fitting, single-breasted suit. He paired the suit with a light-catching, rhinestone-encrusted black shirt and a glittery black tie. Check out his outfit in this clip with Michelle de Swarte.

Jack Black

Jack Black is an American actor and musician best known for comedy films such as Shallow Hal, School of Rock, Tropic Thunder, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, and Jumanji: The Next Level. He also voiced Po in the Kung Fu Panda franchise and Bowser in The Super Mario Bros. Movie. Black is the lead vocalist of the band Tenacious D, which he formed with Kyle Gass in 1994.

On the show, Jack dressed casually in a snakeskin-patterned shirt layered over a black T-shirt and moss green chinos.

In this clip, Jack sings a song that he just made up, inspired by his new film, Anaconda.

Paul Rudd

American actor Paul Rudd has starred in many films, including Clueless, but is most recognised for playing Ant-Man in the Marvel films Captain America: Civil War, Ant-Man and the Wasp, Avengers: Endgame, and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. He also stars as Gary Grooberson in the Ghostbusters films Afterlife and Frozen Empire.

During his interview, Paul wore a classic, slim-fitting, single-breasted black suit with a matching black shirt and shiny tie.

This clip shows Paul explaining some of the exaggerations on his CV.

Jessie Buckley

Jessie Buckley is an Irish actress and singer, famous for her roles in Chernobyl, I'm Thinking of Ending Things, and Fargo, and for her films The Lost Daughter, Men, and Women Talking. She was nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her role in The Lost Daughter.

On the programme, Jessie made a statement by subverting gender norms, wearing a black oversized tuxedo with traditional satin peak lapels and wide, padded shoulders. She finished the outfit with a baggy azure-blue shirt, opting to forgo a tie, creating a bold, contemporary look.

In this clip, Jessie discusses her grandparents' bull farm.
