Will & Jaden Smith & Alfonso Ribeiro do CARLTON DANCE

Whoever does the guest booking on the Graham Norton show deservers a huge bonus this week. The person not only had wall to wall (couch to couch) of celebrities but paved the way to the Fresh Prince of Bel Air exclusive reunion on the Graham Norton show. Will and Jaden Smith began with a rap entitled "hello" to wet our taste buds and then introduced us to DJ Jazzy Jeff this time....the rest is TV GOLD....
Will and Jaden then did a catchy remix of the Fresh Prince of Bel Air theme song with DJ Jazzy Jeff on the decks....Just when we thought every fan and 90s youth had been sufficiently excited, Will Smith introduces a surprise Alfonso Ribeiro (geek Carlton Banks) who does the Carlton dance so energetically to Tom Jones "It's not unsual". Reminding us why we loved the millionaire heir and geek during his hey days on the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Then the Fresh Prince team ended their skit with what can only be deemed a PR team's pot of gold, they did the "Jump On It" dance joined by host Graham Norton. A-listers Bradley Cooper and Heather Graham whilst looking bemused at times could not help joining in and dancing as well. Heather Graham looked as fanatical a fan as the rest of us! In just two days the VIDEO has peaked at 9.8 million views. You can see at repeat of the show on BBC One at 11:45 pm on Monday 27th May 2013 or go to BBC Iplayer to watch it online. for BBC America, apparently the show airs on Thursday in America...SO WATCH OUT FOR IT!

If you want to relive the moment over and over just watch the YOU TUBE VIDEO again like me...help I am addicted to the Fresh Prince of Bel Air reunion on Graham Norton
