Nortonland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nortonland is a British television clip show that airs on digital channel Challenge, and is based on games played on Graham Norton's Channel 4 show V Graham Norton.[1] It began airing on 6 August 2007 and airs at 11pm on Monday to Thursday.
The show is set around a fictional animated theme park called "Nortonland" in which a tour guide takes the viewer around the theme park to show a selection of games. About three games are played in one half hour episode. Whilst Graham Norton owns half of the company that produces the show, SO Television, he is not seen to be at all affliated with the show, except for starring in the clips.
One such episode was accidentally broadcast in a 16:9 widescreen format, giving Challenge viewers a very rare chance to view a widescreen programme that isn't cropped into a 14:9 picture. The final few episodes broadcasts were actually repeats of episodes broadcast earlier in the series.
