Graham Norton has hit back at Terry Wogan's criticism of his new show, Strictly Dance Fever.
The Evening Standard reports that the radio legend, described by Norton as "a man, talking," levelled criticism at the BBC's decision to air the show which is "beating an idea to death" and commented that they were forced to put the chat-show host on the project because "they don't know what else to do with him."
Graham disagrees on both counts, saying: "What Terry Wogan said would be totally valid if it was true or informed in any way... To me, Strictly Dance Fever feels different enough.
"I had one meeting and they pitched the Strictly Dance Fever idea and I said yes," he added.
