I find him very funny but I wouldn't say he's hot, although under his immaculate suits he is more muscular than you would expect! | | | |

You just said that Britain is England, and United Kingdom in England. | | | |

The statistics are wrong, there is no valid source for the statement of "Brits have horrible teeth". Quote:

To put it in terms better then Britain, he is in England.
And to add when you take about Brits, Britain does not exist ever since the 1801, when the UK goverment still had control over Ireland as in Free State. And for information Northern Ireland did not leave the Union, it was only the free state that leaved the UK.
The UK goverment gets its money from TAX payers all over the UK (Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England). Not just England, Scotland and Wales. | | | |

| | | He's attractive only in a certain light, with the right hair coloring, and the right clothes. In other words, he can make a "stage presence", but it's a labor for him. He does know how to garner audience participation better than most... | | | |

Not just England, Scotland and Wales. | Indeed, which is why the official title is "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Nothern Ireland". But still, I usually use the term Britain to refer to all four countries, as do a lot of people. The last time I checked you get brownie points on here for having a big dick, not being a smart ass.
Anyway, I love Graham Norton as a host and a comic, but he isn't remotley sexy at all in my opinion1! | | | |

Let me remind you that HM the Queen decides what term to use and she has used the term UK NOT Britain. When referening to her land.
And lastly am not being a smart ass, I am correcting people which is putting things right.
Would you call someone that is correcting someone that said that most UK guys are horrible because most of us are uncut a smart ass, No. | | | |

No one, at all, said he was a host from GREAT BRITAIN. Then its a whole other story to get pissy about. Britian refers to UK, not Great Britain. | | | |

The term GREAT BRITAIN is the same as Britain, and colloquial term of the UK may be Britain to people that are to stupid to know any different.
I think you should look back at my posts to see what I said as you are confusing yourself but including the term Great Britain in this "pissy" posts. | | | |

I dont want to go back and read your posts as they appear to be typed out in a hurry and aren't very easy to understand because of the poor grammar.
However back onto Graham Norton......... | | | |
