The first episode of series 25 started off strong with double Academy Award-winner Sally Field and Hollywood actor Bill Pullman, who came on the show to promote their performance together on stage in Arthur Miller’s play All My Sons, Bodyguard star Keeley Hawes appeared to promote her new BBC drama Summer of Rockets, and comedian and actor Matt Lucas cosied up on the sofa too. The musical guest was The Lumineers.

Bill Pullman

Actor Bill Pullman is known for many roles including Spaceballs, The Accidental Tourist, Sleepless in Seattle, While You Were Sleeping, Casper, Independence Day, Lake Placid, and television shows such as 1600 Penn and The Sinner. He’s appeared in several stage plays on Broadway and now performing alongside Sally Field at The Old Vic in Arthur Miller’s All My Sons until June.

On the show, Bill wears a dark grey blazer with notched lapels, his hair slicked back, a button up shirt with close pin-stripe and finishes the look by wearing smart, tailored trousers.

Bill discusses a time when he lost his sense of smell on stage.

Here’s a clip of Keeley Hawes next to Bill on the couch.

Keeley Hawes

Keeley Hawes is an actress known for her work in Our Mutual Friend, Wives and Daughters, Tipping the Velvet, The Canterbury Tales, Ashes to Ashes, Upstairs, Downstairs (the 2010 revival), The Casual Vacancy, The Missing, The Durrells, Death at a Funeral, and more recently Bodyguard for which her popularity soared.

On the show, Keeley wore a two piece linen suit in black. The collar was notched with a scalloped edge and the buttons were flat with pearl lustre. She wore her hair straight with gemstone slider clips on the left side to sweep back her hair. The outfit was elegant, casual, and seemed comfortable.

In this clip, Graham discusses how Keeley’s star has shone in light of the popularity of Bodyguard. She said she is surprised at the age of 43 that she is ‘hot’ now.

Matt Lucas

Matt Lucas is known for her roles in Alice in Wonderland, Alice Through the Looking Glass, Doctor Who, Little Britain, Paddington, Sherlock Gnomes, Polar, and Gavin & Stacey.

Matt wore a smart suit to sit on the famous red couch. His suit is pinstripe with notched lapels. He wore a crisp white button up shirt and a bright red silk tie.

In this clip, Matt talks about the time he and David Walliams won a GQ award for Little Britain presented by Peter Andre and Katie Price.
