Radio Times review

Oscar-winners Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway are on the sofa tonight to discuss their latest film: Interstellar, a space adventure of galactic proportions (it's nearly three hours long). Unlike in, respectively, Dallas Buyers Club and Les Misérables, their roles in this didn't require them to crash-diet - just to save an environmentally devastated Earth by travelling through a wormhole in space to find humankind a new home.

Hopefully making us feel less paranoid about the future are Graham's other guests - Lena Dunham, the creator of cult show Girls, and comedian Micky Flanagan.

Rachel Hirons: Britain's answer to Lena Dunham?

The words 'too much information' are lost on Rachel Hirons, the brilliantly funny writer of The Vodka Diaries, a new BBC sitcom that's not for the faint hearted.

Lydia Slater, The Telegraph, 19th July 2014

They'll be rolling out the red carpet tonight as a stellar cast of talent drop by for a chat. Michael Fassbender talks about his role in 12 Years A Slave, Idris Elba reflects on stepping into the shoes of a legend in Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom and there's a chance to get the inside track on punchy comedy drama Girls from US actor/writer Lena Dunham. Completing one of Graham Norton's most diverting line-ups are national treasure Olivia Colman and rockers Keane.
