Graham Norton maintains that Alison Hammond was sorry about his dead dog … and wants to use it for comedy going on

Graham Norton has made it clear that he was not upset or offended by Alison Hammond ‘s faux par last Friday morning, when she asked how his dog was, despite the fact that he died.

Speaking on his radio show on Sunday, Graham, 57, said: ‘Now, I was expecting to say this yesterday, big up Alison Hammond she got so much apparently emptied, you know, being insensitive or annoying.

‘I did this morning and she said, oh, how is your dog? And I said oh he’s dead. And I did it in a way that was deliberately weird. And it was going to be funny. It was funny.

‘And I think she was funny. It was funny to me. Such people were deliberately mistaking what happened to your kind, you know, being horrible to her. ‘

Certainly to make sure Alison was not criticized for the blunder, Graham said: ‘So I like Alison Hammond and if there was any resentment, it was my fault. I mean, I did a bad thing. ‘

‘That’s the other thing, I feel like people then think I’m a bit heartless. I was sad when the dog went, but now I can use it for comedy. ‘
