I think it's the kind of joke in which you try to digress from the question because you know the answer might offend someone. It's like saying a lady is kind when asked if she's gorgeous or not because you are sarcastically being too polite to say no. That's how I see it or maybe I'm wrong.

It's always nice to see the genuine warmth that Graham Norton seems so able to draw out of people. A very special skill ... and i'm sure that Maggie Smith is a good sport. With someone like Ian McKellen, how could you be otherwise?

I’m not one for personal contact, but who wouldn’t want to give Ian McKellan a hug? You know he would hug you right back with absolute love.

I love it when he speaks, he is wunn of my only living heroes.

Both Ian and Maggie are treasures of the acting profession. Would love to see Maggie imitate Ian. LOL!

I literally stood up and said “Got him!” when he did the Maggie Smith impression😂

The funny part of me hearing her say the "you've not been doing me again?" is she played his mother in Richard III (1995). So his imitation being that good makes sense.

My idea of the best time ever would be sitting at a pub with Sir Ian and Sir Patrick Stewart, knocking back some pints and hearing their stories.

Definitely one of the best we've ever had in the acting business. He's phenomenal. If he's in it, I'm watching it.

I would watch a show of just Sir Ian McKellen doing Dame Maggie Smith. I'd pay far too much to see it.

Sir Ian played incredible, huge parts both in theatre and the movies. One thing never changes though, he always is a lovely lovely person.

Such a national treasure. Please keep this precious man safe.

What a lovely Sir he is

Went to his tour at the Belgrade theatre a month ago. He was incredible. One of the best things I've ever seen

After this when he runs into Maggie she says... "So you have chosen DEATH, Sir Ian!"

I love actors at his level on shows like this. Other stars that are quite famous are left starstruck, showing they can still be fans. No one interrupted him, they were just listening very intently

I so love this talkshow. it's possibly the most fun talk show I have ever seen and the guests seem to have so much fun as well.
