Tom Hanks & Simon Pegg Geek Out Over Star Trek | The Graham Norton Show 

I'm not telling anyone how to run their business, but if Tom Hanks wants to be in Star Trek, then you put Tom Hanks in Star Trek.

I love Star Trek: The Search For Ear Dude.

Tom Hanks literally have a conversation with ANYONE

"The needs of the something outweighs the something of the somebody" ~ Ear dude.

Tom Hanks would be a great Captain.

Tom Hanks would make a perfect Q in the Star Trek universe

Tom Hanks is a world treasure.

We love Tom and Simon in this one, but hats off to Nicole for playing to the bit and having those funny reactions.

now why hasn't Tom Hanks been in a Star Trek movie? You know he'd say yes immediately, even with a slightly reduced pay-check.

All I can hear Tom Hanks saying if he was on Star Trek as a Captain is, "Crying? Crying? There's no crying in Starfleet!"

Who would have ever suspected that Tom Hanks - nay, *anybody* - could out-geek Simon Pegg!

I wonder if Tom Hanks even remembers that Simon Pegg was in BAND OF BROTHERS.

Tom Hanks' only sci-fi film is Cloud Atlas. Bios is upcoming. Apollo 13 is a Science film but not Science Fiction.

If I was Simon, I would have said... "Geez Tom, you starred in BIG, FORREST GUMP, APOLLO 13, and SAVING PRIVATE RYAN. At least let me have this, LET ME HAVE STAR TREK...haha.

The nerd level on the transport is hilarious!

Merry Christmas everyone 🎄🎅☃️🎁

There’s never a dull moment when Tom Hanks is around

"Let me play a peacefull Rumulan!" ... well, there are peacefull Romulans now in Picard, do it!! 👀

I'm a trekkie, and a straight female... but all I can look at is Nicole's legs. Gorgeous.

Tom Hanks when whiny sounds like Joey Tribbiani

I like how the audience goes along with the fun and Nicole could have been talking about the Ferengi.

Love how they're messing with her, as she has no idea wtf is going on.

nicole's such a good sport in this though

I think Hanks is about to get a call from The Orville.

Tom Hanks should play Q or a Q since there are many. He would be perfect.

No one can touch Graham Norton. Best talk show of the decade I think.

Real talk, Tom Hanks would be awesome in a sci-fi

Love Tom Hanks, love everyone in this, great show. Agree with all the praises. But, I need to change topics for a moment. The chandeliers in the background caught my eye. Their shape and style look like quantum computers. Does anyone know ANYTHING more about them? (Reason: When people see a model of a quantum computer, many ask how they could buy something like it as a chandelier for their home. These might be as close as you can get. I'd love to be able to tell them about it.)

Tom Hanks is the best

Tom Hanks as the captain in Quentin Tarantino's Star Trek film. Make it so.

It’s awesome to hear it confirmed that Tom Hanks is such a big Star Trek fan. I remember back in the day, Tom Hanks was going to play Zefram Cochran in Star Trek: First Contact, the man who invented the Warp Drive which resulted in humanity’s 1st contact with an alien, an event that Star Treks entire history is built upon. From what I heard of the time Hanks was very excited to do it but there ended up being a scheduling conflict and James Cromwell ended up playing the character in the film. James Cronwells great in the movie, it’s actually one of my favorite Star Trek Films. I’d love to see Tom Hanks in a future Star Trek project. They’re not done with that universe ye. He could play a role in one of the new films or one of the television shows.

It was nice (legs) to see Tom Hanks and (legs) Simon (legs) Pegg on (legs) the same (legs) show.

Tom Hanks as a Peaceful Romulan... MAKE THIS HAPPEN

Yeah. I like the ear dudes.🤣 My stepdad and his brother watched Enterprise because they liked Jolene Blalock.

We need to find a way to download the Hanks consciousness into an android body. He must live forever. Science, get on this!!!

I love this. Star Trek is my life I love when celebrities actually give it it's due.

I love star trek, but couldn't move my eyes from the beautiful Nicole...

I hope toms pants and shoes meet one day

My God! Nicole's legs are mesmerizing!

Hanks would be great in Star Trek. He's great in everything!

I guess everybody has seen "for the love of ear dude" on Netflix?

I could definitely see Tom Hanks as a Guinan-type character, dispensing wisdom on some star base...

I didn't think Tom Hanks could get any better... and then I find out he's a trekkie. If they remake The Fifth Element we would have to replace Lelu with Tom.

The only way I can tell the clip is an old episode is Graham is clean shaven 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

This is such a “geek out,” thing to do . Tom Hanks forgets his list of questions

That was “I, Mudd”. Zero points for Tom!

Did he forgot about Cloud Atlas? It was not a bad film tbh.

Hey CBS - need a guest star for Picard? I’ve got a suggestion!

I loved Tom Hank's performance on the latest Golden Globe Award. Almost as much as Ricky Gervais's...

2:36 Imagine how awkward and funny it must have been for the crowd to have to "react" to this

Gosh I loved the trivia questions going back and forth! I would have loved to have seen more of that! 🖖 I've always loved Star Trek!

Call me weird but I think Simon Pegg is kinda attractive and I'm not even into old guys 🤔

Tom hanks is no doubt the most sincere humble actor ever

Tom Hanks was offered the role of Zefram Cochrane in Star Trek: First Contact. But, he declined due to his involvement with That Thing You do. What could have been?

For whatever reason when picturing him in the Trek cast, a Q came to mind, 🤭😇😁

Maybe, when the Abrams/Kurtzman era is passed, Tom is asked for a role on Star Trek. I would love to see him.

my brother would bring his friends over and have me repeat all the lines before the actors would say them. that was so much fun proving what a fan I am.

I can already see it. Captain Hanks on Deck. First Officer: Sir the scanners have located a round small sphere in the middle of this system with blood painting on it. Captain Hanks: WILSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Never knew hanks was a fan. I just realized he’s never appeared even once in 13 movies and like 850 episodes. Put this man in star trek immediately.

Dude, he would make such a good captain

There’s never a dull moment when Tom Hanks is around

Tom Hanks my god he is always great.

How many ostriches had to die...?

Tom Hanks as Dan Akroyd in coneheads

Tom greetings from greece 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

Anyone remember the Movie from the 80', were two boys create a super model with a machine? Looking at Nicole, I think, this machine does exist.

In an ideal world, Quentin Tarantino would direct a Star Trek movie for real, and Tom Hanks would be in that one. Sigh...

Sorry Tom, Tom you're slightly off on your Trekkie trivia, the dog faced boy did not have a name. After calling Spock a halfbreed and a computer, Kirk told Spock he belonged in a circus, right next to the "dog faced boy". No Joe, Joe. 😋. Glad you love the show, I do too.

Watching clips from graham norton show is kinda my thing now. Binge-watching them all!!!!

Tom Hanks sounds like woody off toy story. Wonder if he knows him.

What a weird time we have, where hot models are being laughed at for knowing too little geeky stuff

Tom Hanks is the most loveable actor ever.

He was supposed to play zephyr cochrane in First Contact. But he backed out for scheduling conflicts. He could have been the founder of it all. Suprised he doesnt remember that

This would have been a good time for Nicole to mention that she was in Men in Black 3

Imagine tom Hanks as a scifi bad guy

Finally, I saw my favourite American comedian with my favourite English comedian

Nicole looks stunningly sexy

Hank's memory is a little bit fuzzy here. The second Mudd episode is titled just "I, Mudd" not "I am Harry Mudd," and the Kirk line in "This Side of Paradise" is "You belong in a circus, Spock, not a starship. Right next to the dog-faced boy." Nothing about JoJo the dog-faced boy.

Love all of them. But. My god. Nichole is a stunning woman.

So after years of disappointing Captains, you're telling me Tom Hanks was ready to be at the helm at a moment's notice all this time?... mm hmm

She literally looks bored ro tears lol

I want to see that tom hanks as a peaceful romulan

I wonder how close Tom Hanks really was to Jeffrey Epstein

Go damn it Tom hanks is a national treasure, he may not be ours but we’re claiming him! Love this guy. He should be on Star Trek Picard, not discovery

Hey angels vs demons and the davinci code are still great movies i watch them all the time!

I love tom soooo much!

OMG....Tom Hanks commanding a Romulan War Bird!...YES PLEASE!!! Imagine the face off - Tom V Kirk! 😍 If ANYONE!! deserves a role just "handed" to them by the movie industry...its Tom Hanks!...as all he has ever done, is given his ALL to the industry and his MILLIONS!!! of loyal & loving fans. #TOM4TREK

Holy legs!

Nichole just sitting there looking all cute and thinking (did I just say) “the ears guy?... c’mon!”

Tom hanks as Q. With deLancie Q.

1:39 how to ignore a acting legend about to tell a story! WtF

Mike Stoklasas is sitting here with a sour face, saying....amatuers.....

Yep, every night at 6pm, KTVU out of Oakland!! I would watch it while doing my homework.

It's cool seeing celebs nerd out over shows/movies like we do!

Merry Christmas everyone☃️🎄🎅🏻🎁☃️🎄🎅🏻☃️🎄🎁☃️🎄

2:20-ish: Left: Man dressed formally/Centre: Man dressed more casually/Right: Woman dressed absolutely ridiculously.

I had that same thought...Tom Hanks WOULD be a great captain. As for his idea of being a friendly Romulan, all i can see in my mind's eye is Tom Hanks in full Romulan dress code standing stiffly and to everyone's surprise he yells out "WILSON!"

I would pay money to see Tom Hanks as a peaceful Romulan asking 'who's the ear dude?' for a human Scherzinger to say that's Mr Spock....obviously.

Tom Hanks as a peaceful Romulan? Are you listening to this gold mine of an opportunity CBS? PICARD could bring Hanks into the SW universe! Make it so!

What a hilarious inversion. The beautiful young woman is pretending to be into sci-fi to impress the old nerdy men... What a country!
