This is a normal post You think he's being completely sincere do you?
The joke isn't about graham norton, it's about an entitled fat middle aged man being a twat. He's playing a character. Comedy characters tend not to be well rounded likable people because those sorts of people aren't very funny. Do you watch peep show and think "That jeremy must be a nightmare to live with. Why do people watch this tripe?"

This is a normal post Jokes that need this much explanation typically aren't that funny.
Unless the purpose is to prove how the audience isn't as learned/hip/cool/informed as he is.

This is a normal post So he's playing a sit-com character as a standup act?
At least Jeremy does funny things and says funny stuff.

I completely agree that comedy characters can (and possibly even should) have their flaws, but counter to that, they have some sort of charm or redeeming quality.

I could imagine having an amusing conversation with Jeremy in a pub. It might be awkward, it might make me feel uncomfortable, but it would be interesting and at least in hindsight, amusing.

I could also imagine being at a boring middle class dinner party and getting stuck next to Lee's 'character' and having to drink as much wine as possible until it was polite to suggest that I had to go home to let the dog out for a piss.
