But viewers felt the Hollywood actress would have rather been somewhere else.

Taking to Twitter, one fan complimented host Graham for "managing" Courteney.

"He really is superb at managing the guests," they penned.

"It was a tough one tonight, too - Courteney Cox looked like she wasn’t present at all, almost dissociated.

"Her eyes looked glazed over, which isn’t how she used to come across."

Another said: "Courteney Cox looks bored. Such a shame #GrahamNortonShow."

A third tweeted: "#Courteneycox looks like she wants to be somewhere else."

Echoing this, a fourth added: "Don't think #courtneycox wanted to be there."

Courteney appeared on The Graham Norton Show alongside actor Taron Egerton, Brit actress Minnie Driver, Hollywood star Uma Thurman, and West Side Story's Ariana DeBose.

While chatting to Graham, Courteney spoke about the fun Tiny Dancer music video she shot with her good pal Ed Sheeran, Sir Elton John and singer Brandi Carlile.

Courteney had only recently started learning the piano when Ed gave her barely any warning that he was on his way to her house with Elton to shoot the spoof.

She admitted: "I called my piano teacher and said, 'You have to come to my house right now'. I had 20 minutes before Elton got there.

"My teacher taught me how to play that part. He was walking out as Elton was walking in."

She added: "It was the scariest and most nerve-wracking I've ever been, but it was the thrill of my life."
