Chris Evans questions recommending Graham Norton to Virgin Radio: 'Why did I say!'

“But we’d like to get to 2 million as our target!”

He admitted to not knowing his actual figures, but noted that his streaming ratings were “impressive”.

“Not as impressive as Graham’s of course because he seems to be from another radio planet,” he chuckled, as co-stars Rachel Horne and Vassos Alexander stifled their laughter in the background.

Chris then sighed as he wondered whether the former BBC 2 presenter joining Virgin Radio was a good idea after all.

Graham announced late last year that he would be leaving his 10-year post, following a similar path to Chris.
