Graham Norton forced to explain himself after show segment leaves Da'Vine Joy Randolph speechless

Graham Norton forced to explain himself after show segment leaves Da'Vine Joy Randolph speechless

Da’Vine Joy Randolph 'had no idea' what the segment was

Actor Da'Vine Joy Randolph was left speechless on The Graham Norton Show as the TV host was forced to explain himself over a segment.

This week, alongside the Only Murders In The Building star, was Andrew Scott, Paul Mescal, Kingsley Ben-Adir and music band The Last Dinner Party.

Opening up on the hit Hulu series - created by Steve Martin and John Hoffman - Randolph spoke about working with Oscar-winning actress Meryl Streep in the latest season.

For those unaware, Only Murders In The Building follows three strangers from one apartment complex (Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez) who share an obsession with true crime and suddenly find themselves wrapped up in one.

And season three, which is available to watch on Disney+, sees Randolph revive her role as Detective Donna Williams as she works alongside Streep, who plays an eccentric stage actor.

"When I found out she was going to be in it I begged and was like, 'Please god I want just one scene with her', Randolph explained on Norton.

"And it happened. I get to arrest her! She is so amazing."

However, the moment of the night came when Norton was forced to explain himself over the 'Red Chair' segment, which sees audience members air their most cringe secrets to the whole panel of celebs.

If the host isn't liking the story, he pulls the lever and the chair falls backwards, along with the story-teller.

On this week's show, one Red Chair participant attempted to tell her story: "So I was gardening naked, I'd fallen over," and that's as far as she got before Norton pulled the lever.

The whole couch, along with the audience, all laughed - apart from Randolph.

She was clearly 'traumatised' by the segment, saying: "What did you just do to her? What happened?"

Norton quipped: "She's gone, she's gone now."

"So what's that mean, you're like, you're over it, you're not that into it, it's a bad story?" the actor replied.

She 'had no idea' what the red chair was.

"Well it's just I feel I've heard the I've you know, I was putting in a lightbulb and sat on it, that kind of thing," the host explained.

"We've all heard those stories," Norton continued, after turning his chair to the audience: "Haven't we?"

Commenting on the clip, one viewer tweeted: "Screaming at Da'Vine Joy Randolph not knowing what the hell the red chair is #GrahamNorton."

"The look on her face was so funny!" another added.

"Love when people don't know about the red chair," a third agreed.
