From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The Graham Norton Show will return tonight (10 April) in a new adapted form featuring interviews from celebrities’ living rooms.
Norton will do what many hosts in the US are doing by providing entertainment to those in lockdown due to coronavirus despite being in quarantine.
While the studio where the show is usually filmed will remain empty, Norton is still welcoming guests from all over the world.
So, who will appear? Michael Buble will be interviewed from the basement of his home in Vancouver while Michael Sheen – who plays Chris Tarrant in new ITV series Quiz – will appear from his home in Wales.
Quiz, also starring Matthew Macfadyen and Sian Clifford, tells the story of the coughing scandal, which hit Who Wants to be a Millionaire? in 2001.
Martin Freeman and Daisy Haggard, who star in new sitcom Breeders, will also feature from their respective homes, while singer Celeste has turned her bedroom into a “glamorous venue” for a performance of her new singe “Strange”
Speaking about the adapted format, Norton said: “We can’t wait to be back on Friday nights bringing a little bit of lightness during this strange time.”
The popular “Big Red Chair” segment will also make a return, with Norton listening to viewers’ stories from home.
The Graham Norton Show will be broadcast on BBC One tonight (10 April) at 9pm.
