Following his performance of debut single Sign of the Times, he flatly dismissed claims he'd eaten dog and used sheep's placenta to aid his smooth skin.

But when Graham asked him about the rumours he'd been earmarked to play a young Han Solo in the Star Wars franchise and if he was set to portray Jagger in a new biopic, he remained coy - giving the host a cheeky smile.

He certainly has the ability to play the ageing rocker, having recently done an hilarious impersonation of The Rolling Stones frontman for Saturday Night Live.

Harry hammed it up as rocker Jagger, 73, for a sketch based on US gameshow Family Feuds hosted by Steve Harvey.

The star was more forthcoming when it came to his new album, which is just weeks away from release.

"I am excited and really proud of it," he told Graham.

"I have worked so hard on it.”

And he admitted he wasn't feeling lonely without his fellow 1D bandmates, explaining: “There’s certainly more room in the dressing room!

";I don’t feel on my own because I have such an amazing band.”

Away from the buzz of his solo material, Harry has been very hands on in caring for his ill granddad, Brian Selley, who suffers from Parkinson's disease.

Referring to Harry and his sister Gemma, the pair's mum Anne Twist said: “They have been absolutely brilliant. They love him to death and he is so proud of them."

The Graham Norton Show is on BBC One tonight at 10.35pm
