Graham, 60, who has been a commentator on the iconic song contest for over a decade, met with former show host Jan, 81.

The newsreader hosted Eurovision when it was last in the UK back in 1982 – when the show has hosted in Harrogate.

Jan returned to the show, looking glamorous in a pink and orange gown with a minimal palette of makeup, pulling her hair back.

The pair chatted away about her time on Eurovision in the 80s, before announcing the vote together to fans at home.

But Graham was left in shock after he was told off by Jan for making a cheeky jibe her way about how the voting works.

“This is a live show and the vote is open now,” Graham said. “Here’s a quick test, who can’t people vote for?”

“Oh, your own country,” Jan replied after pretending to think, to which Graham jibed back: “It’s like riding a bike.”

“I beg your pardon,” Jan then said, looking her co-star up and down in disgust and hanging her mouth open. “How dare you.”

Hanging his head in shame and covering his face, Graham then said: “Oh no, it’s all gone horribly wrong. Enjoy your night Jan.”

Fans at home were left cringing at the moment, and took to Twitter to laugh over “poor Graham” and his badly time joke.

“Did Graham Norton just call Jan Leeming a bike?” one asked, as another chimed in: “Poor Graham didn’t know where to put himself.”

“Lots of nervous laughters from Graham there,” a third said, while a fourth added: “Cringe!”
