Graham Norton turned down opportunity to join the Britain's Got Talent judging panel

Graham Norton has reportedly turned down the opportunity to be a judge on the panel of Britain’s Got Talent.

The chat show host, 59, was reportedly in talks to replace David Walliams, 51, on the series, however the deal collapsed just weeks before auditions were set to take place at the London Palladium.

The space on the panel comes after David Walliams stepped down from the role late last year, after derogatory comments he made about previous contestants were leaked in the media. The comedian had been a part of the BGT panel for 10 years.
