Amused by the concept, Paul, 28, replied: "Who is actually going to think about that? If someone actually attacked me, I'm not going to go 'phone'," as he mimicked taking a phone out his pocket to film. Graham, 61, laughed at the idea and quipped: "Can you hold on a second?"

Saoirse quietly watched their exchange before she found the perfect moment to share her thoughts. She simply said: "That's what girls have to think about all the time," as the panel were stunned into silence before agreeing with her. She then turned to the audience and said: "Am I right, ladies?"

The crowd cheered and clapped for the star, with the moment going viral on social media. "Saoirse Ronan gagging men we love to see it," one user praised the actress. Another posted: "Saoirse Ronan is a queen. Men need a reminder what it’s like being a woman so they can appreciate their privilege. The silence after she said that speaks volumes."

One said: "Saoirse Ronan, the woman that you are." Another pointed out: "Think it’s disingenuous to portray that clip from the Graham Norton show of the men + Saoirse Ronan as “men laughing at issue’s women face” bc they’re not. The whole point is that they weren’t even thinking about it from the perspective of women bc they’re ignorant about that."

Saoirse was on Graham Norton promoting her new war drama Blitz, which is premiering in cinemas November 1 before being added to Apple TV+ on November 22. Meanwhile, Paul and Denzel were promoting the upcoming sequel to Gladiator, which is premiering on November 15 in the UK.
