Graham Norton has insisted that he has no plans to take over Jonathan Ross's Friday night chatshow slot.

The comic, who will host another series of The Graham Norton Show on BBC One later this year, argued that there Is no reason to replace Friday Night With Jonathan Ross with a like-for-like programme.

"It doesn't work like that. When he finishes, it's the end of that show," he told the Daily Mail. "And who knows? The BBC may decide to bring back the stand-up shows at the Apollo. They were very successful.

"But we haven't seen the last of Jonathan. He's a talented, clever and funny man, a brilliant broadcaster."

Speaking about who he would like to get on his sofa on his upcoming series, he said: "Number one on that list is Madonna. I'm sure she'll say yes, though, sooner or later. And I shan't rest until the wonderful Bette Midler comes to call."
