GRAHAM Norton says killjoy snowflakes have stopped him telling naughty jokes.
The chat show host, 55, is famed for his close-to-the-bone humour and risque style.
His late night shows have given him a long leash to push the boundaries.
The Irish comedian says he has curbed the blue humour, fearing a social media backlash.
Graham told the Daily Star: “I think the world has moved on, we did a lot of jokes on that show that I wouldn’t do now, it’s mean.
“People were happier to laugh at that stuff then, I think if I did those jokes to an audience now they would just wince, they would be kind of horrified.
“Things may go in a loop and that style of comedy may come back but for right now it’s not appropriate.”
Graham says modern day comics have to alter their acts to match changing attitudes, and prevent a slamming online.
He added: “I don’t know if comedians compromise now, I think it’s just doing your job.
“If you want your gig to do well then you do the jokes that people like.”
He also admitted to using social media less to avoid trolls.
Graham said: ” I’ve come off Facebook and I do a bit of Instagram, but I’m still on Twitter because I have 1.3million followers, and that’s extraordinary.”
The Irishman is one of the highest paid talents working on the BBC and one of it’s biggest stars.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
