The Graham Norton Show has revealed which celebrity guests will assemble on its famous red sofa later this month.

In the late-night chat show's fourth episode of the latest series, which will air on Friday, October 20, Graham will be joined by Harry Potter star Ralph Fiennes. He'll be talking about his role as Macbeth in a new staging of the Shakespeare play.

The Great British Bake Off's Nadiya Hussain will also be on the show to chat about her latest cookbook, Nadiya’s Simple Spices, while Star Trek actor Patrick Stewart will discuss his new memoir, Making It So.

Rounding out the star-studded group of guests is The Last of Us actor Bella Ramsey, who will be talking about their role in the second season of BBC drama Time.

But before we get to that episode, fans can catch up with Doctor Who's Catherine Tate, Top Boy star Ashley Walters, Strictly Come Dancing winner Bill Bailey, and songwriter Bernie Taupin in this Friday's episode, airing on October 6.

Away from his chat show though, Graham is a pretty busy man. It was recently announced that he will host ITV's Wheel of Fortune reboot, which is set to air in 2024.

"I'm beyond excited to be bringing such an iconic American show to a new British audience," he said of the news.

"My first-ever TV job was a game show on ITV, so this feels like coming full circle. You might even call it a wheel!"

The Graham Norton Show airs on Friday nights at 10.40pm on BBC One.
