@@simonkevnorris As Robbie mentioned in another interview, Elton helped him break his addiction and getting him cleaned up (as well as with other celebrities). So Elton is a cool cat regardless of what you think of his forehead.
In the UK, Robbie Williams could wear a mask and get recognized. In the US, he could wear a sign that says "I am Robbie Williams." and barely anyone would know who he is.
@@yfoog No, I just don't think his music appealed to the US mass audience at the time. Grunge was still around when he was big in the UK, his kind of pop wasn't what people wanted.
They cut the bit at the end where Robbie turns to Elton and asks him, “did you ever smuggle Leo Sayer out of your flat in a hold-all?” Couldn’t stop laughing at that. Elton’s face went pale 😂
God forbid he doesn't like any of Robbie's music, also he was absolutely right. Though technically all he needed to say was, no there is nothing that can be done, they are breaking no law.
@@quandary1382 >Though technically all he needed to say was, no there is nothing that can be done, they are breaking no law. Yeah, that's the point. Robbie didnt ask for a lecture he asked what his rights were. The copper was out of line to say that. People deserve privacy in their own home whether they're famous or not.
I love Robbie, Oasis, Blur, Pulp, the Manics. Just all part of the best part of music in my lifetime. The bickers, fights, talent and music was fkn amazing. Loved the 90's almost as much as the 80's
Robbies an awful singer but thats the point. He is the first to admit it but hes such a charismatic entertainer and solo act he made it without ever being able to sing
Same, but the way I remember her telling it was different to this, there were a few friends over and it was Jonathan Wilkes or another friend who carried her out in the bag and put her in the car with everyone else, not in the boot, so someone is embellishing or I'm remembering it differently.
@@MisterChirp Robbie is known for embellishing. They put her in the car after carrying her out, and that was it. He's lying about keeping her trapped inside the bag while eating KFC.
I bet there's pap shots of him leaving the flat with that holdall somewhere online because they'll print any shot they can get. I'm not even a Geri fan but I can remember just how tiny she became when she went on an extreme diet & hit the yoga really hard. It was just after her band broke up & she really wasn't in a good place. The only reason I remember the photos was because they were actually alarming I was shocked by her sudden transformation because she looked like a totally different person, one who was very unwell. To fit her in a holdall & take her out to his car she'd have had to of been pretty small, that's what made me think of those pictures. It all probably happened around the same time.
@@SK22520 Yeah, just re-watched and I'm not sure what I was thinking, I could clearly see her laughing this time round. Maybe she is just more reserved so I wasn't picking up on it when I watched the first time, but I have seen a few interviews with her since watching this, and she is a real classy lady, I find her quite charming.
they need a "British-To-American" translation for this I think *lol* good GRAVY so many british-centric words that are never used in the U.S. *giggle* not that that's necessarily a bad thing! flat....holdall....mate....boot...
The best part is at the end, when he took his time letting her out. Should have done everyone a favour and forgot about her completely. Halliwell is a horrible little self-absorbed dwarf.
Weirder things have happened with celebrities so who knows. The KFC part might have been a stretch but carrying someone in a big back isn't as hard to do depending on how big the person is.
It’s official: Robbie is a better story teller than most actors and comedians.
If I were a comedian I’d never come on the show when Robbie is booked in
Actors? Yes.
Comedians? Nope.
And bullshitter,.
The moment all Norton fans wait for: Robbie Williams saying, "I probably shouldn't tell this story..."
MyNameIsBucket 🌸 lol 😂
"We weren't dating, we were friends..."
Elton John: smirks 😏😏😏
We were friends....and ahem...you know...
Ahhhhhhh
They were really just friends. Geri said that they have a connection mainly bec they both left their groups.
Sounds to me like there may have been 'benefits'!
@@108padma benefits? he is gay
He always has THE BEST anecdotes!!! lol
He should have a comedy show :)
I want him and Miriam Margolyes to have their own show.
Between him and Greg Davies’ stories, I am in tears laughing.
Never thought I'd say this, but I really want a Robbie Williams biopic. Just the stories he's told on Graham Norton would make an entertaining flick
Exactly!!!:)
But if it's made from is memory, there's a lot of blackout on that reel.
Chapter one: Maureen from the pub
@@magicmarvel That story was pure Gold😅
Who plays Robbie? (other than himself)
Elton always looking like he's off in his own world 😂😂😂
With someone else's forehead.....

What a brilliant story-Robbie is a natural comedian-loved it
In the UK, Robbie Williams could wear a mask and get recognized. In the US, he could wear a sign that says "I am Robbie Williams." and barely anyone would know who he is.
did he never have any hit in the US?
@@GianlucaTomoe Angels got a little radio play, but he is virtually unknown here.
I don’t think his vibe translated to the US. He’s an Englishman thru and thru
@@yfoog No, I just don't think his music appealed to the US mass audience at the time. Grunge was still around when he was big in the UK, his kind of pop wasn't what people wanted.
He had minor hits in the US with Angels, Millennium, Feel, and Rock DJ

"how a London PC talked his way out of being gifted front row concert tickets"
Prob a Gary Barlow fan...

@@quandary1382 they were disturbing the peace and probably blocking a public right of way, so yes the policeman could have moved them on.

I actually read "Robbie Williams once DID Geri Halliwell in a holdall" 🤣🤣🙈
Robbie Williams is the best talk show guest since the heyday of Billy Connolly. He has an endless source of great stories delivered expertly.
You mean apart from 0:14, 0:29, 0:48, 1:40, 1:46, 2:11 (and a few moments in between) until the end of the video ? I see what you mean
The KFC part of that story had me in stitches!
KFC is pretty damn tasty. 😂
Robbie is great singer, even greater performer but he's a funny guy & he knows how to make people laugh. Love you Robbie, my angel.
Robbies an awful singer but thats the point. He is the first to admit it but hes such a charismatic entertainer and solo act he made it without ever being able to sing
Robbie Williams is my favourite person
I just love listening to any of his stories, they are always hilarious 😍
Would have loved to have been in the audience for this episode!!
This man had and having such a colourful life. Full of great stories
Robbie has the best stories! :-)
I remember Geri mentioning this a few years ago
Same, but the way I remember her telling it was different to this, there were a few friends over and it was Jonathan Wilkes or another friend who carried her out in the bag and put her in the car with everyone else, not in the boot, so someone is embellishing or I'm remembering it differently.
I’m trying to find the interview of her talking about it but i can’t find it 😩

Sarah A Frank Skinner show interview
Was that policeman Garry Barlow ? 😂
God I love this man..makes me proud to be British!.
Elton was sitting there thinking about something else up until 1:40
I dont like his music that much but his stories are music to my ears.
Robbies Got Wild Stories‼️‼️
I know what Robbie needs to do. He just needs to ask Elton what to do.
Elton has this all figured out years ago.
I will always love Robbie the best!!!
Geri in a holdall just makes me laugh
What's a holdall? 'Fraid I'm a yank
notting hill was quite a place to be around then... and portabello
Robbie
Tells
Great
Stories
♥️🌟💪💪😂😂😂💙🇬🇧🇬🇧
He just had to have that chicken hahaaah! Great story!
He’s hysterical
Thanks for posting.
I read did instead of hid and was very curious about how they made that work
Me too!
Where's the photos of him carrying the holdall? Paps must have taken some.
It's weird that he has three musical guests, I wonder which one performed
The Burger King pink did
Robbie should do stand up

You are correct. That was actually the time her and Robbie were dating, so it all makes sense. She's also only 5ft 1.
Today I learned what a holdall is.
(It's British for a gym bag or a carryall).
Full so funny and best ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
interesting Answer Policeman gave to Robbie :) smart one.
Robbie always makes me laugh.lol
He is absolutely the top 😂
No that was Mel B.. 🤣🤣
Normally I would be sceptical of this but it is Robbie Williams, and Geri halliwell is small so......
Elton never look comfortable at these things.
scarletfluerr I was thinking the same thing
Thought he was jolly enough in his appearances on this show?
He's a very shy man
All these funny stories... Kind of reminds me of my brother in law - about the same level of crazy things happens all the time.
I love his new album 25 and I love 💘 his new single lost it is great and the greatest hits on his album
Robbie is always so high at this show
I know this story this isn't new.
She has told this story.
What's that thing at 0:31seconds? 😊😊😊😅
Kept waiting for the good bit but it never arrived.
It is a funny story but... They do make these things called curtains Dearest Robbie
Yep, my thoughts aswell
I'm pretty sure he could afford some curtains...
Omg... this is a great story... :-) :-) :-) Them poor celebs...
Elton John pissed off he is not the number one position on the sofa.
I think Elton has a soft spot for Robbie.
It's gotta be said he has the best stories. Hands down imho.
Elton thinking about something else
Me gustó la historia que contó sobre el vecino mafioso 😀😁😂😃😆
robbie seems like such a sporadic person
This stories this guy tells...
Just a tap dancer from stoke
Robbie is a proper rock star.
the only spice ive ever had in my boot was tumeric.
I sold that holdal to Robbie! And it really wasn't big so well done for Geri for getting into it 😬
Looking more like Morrissey every day.
My favorite Brit...
Shut the curtains, close the blinds = no story.
Yes but at that time paparazzi were everywhere!
Love it! 😂
Robbie is a funny guy
Anyone else notice, almost everyone is cracking up, except Carey Mulligan. She is not amused!
Victor Funk no? Look at her face, she is laughing
Victor Funk yes I think she is so too. Really charming and intelligent woman!
@@SK22520 Yeah, just re-watched and I'm not sure what I was thinking, I could clearly see her laughing this time round.

you dont see me yet
Anyone got the pap shot of him with the bag?
Hi there 😊
What the hell is Robbie Williams doing next to Elton John
Love robbie
Geri is leaving the conversation....
So funny
Those police men are wrong!!!!
they need a "British-To-American" translation for this I think *lol* good GRAVY so many british-centric words that are never used in the U.S. *giggle* not that that's necessarily a bad thing! flat....holdall....mate....boot...
It's so refreshing to see Elton John's robotic behavior getting better at imitating that of a human's
Why does everyone think this is true
Love him
Brits never heard of curtains??
Norman Wisdom
Elton John is loving this story lmao
Thats Christian Horners wife hahaha
No Robbie Williams good songs in years
The best part is at the end, when he took his time letting her out. Should have done everyone a favour and forgot about her completely. Halliwell is a horrible little self-absorbed dwarf.
Come on, nobody believes this actually happened :D

rude much

Is Elton John laying an Egg?
