Adolescence star Stephen Graham reveals terrifying moment he had emergency operation mid-air on flight from UK to US
STEPHEN Graham has revealed he had to get surgery while on an airplane after a painful medical issue. The Adolescence and Thousand Blows star, 51, appeared on Late Night with Seth Meyers, where he was grilled on an unfortunate incident last time he flew to the States. 6 6 6 6 Asking if he was OK now, Stephen shared that he found himself getting a surgical catheter installed at 10,000ft during one of his last flights. Recounting the shocking story, Stephen explained that "past the age of 45, you need to go to the toilet more" but found himself unable to urinate for reasons he didn't know. "I'm like, Oh, this doesn't feel right" he told the host. "I knew I had to, and then silly Stephen thought, 'Oh, well, if I go back to my seat and I just keep drinking water, at some point it will happen.'" However, he shared that an hour later, when he tried to go again "long story short, all of a sudden I went, but it was just pure blood." Admitting it was "very scary", Stephen reached out to a doctor he already knew was on the plane for advice and help. "Next minute, the doctor comes around the corner, and he goes, Stephen! and I'm like 'Doc, hello!', and I explained the situation. "He had another friend with him, who was a surgeon, so I'm there, and I explain. He's like, okay, and the surgeon, Dr Haji, says, we can work this out." However, Stephen noted that they then sterilised the lounge area between the economy and first class seats, and a catheter is pulled out of an emergency box. When shocked Seth asked if anyone had walked in on him, Stephen thanked the crew on the flight for keeping curtains drawn so he could have some privacy during the sensitive operation. "I drop me kecks, I get on the couch, and he performs a catheter operation there and then," Stephen said, later sharing a selfie he grabbed with the doctors after the op was done. Netflix fans in tears over Ashey Walters and Stephen Graham's show Adolescence - as boss reveals how 'impossible' shot was done "The relief was unbelievable as you can imagine, but it was a little clot that had got stuck behind, well, not little, but, had got stuck behind my urethra," he concluded. "I went to the toilet, and it was one of the nicest experience with me and my penis!" he said as the audience burst into fits of laughter, noting after he was done "he came running out like a kid that had just learned to use the toilet". 6 6

UFC Vegas 107 main event canceled after Maycee Barber suffers possible seizure minutes before fight
Maycee Barber's main-event fight against Erin Blanchfield was canceled at the last possible moment. (Mike Roach/Zuffa LLC) The main event of the UFC Vegas 107 card was canceled at the last possible moment. Maycee Barber and Erin Blanchfield were set to face off in a clash of ranked flyweights Saturday in Las Vegas, to the point that the ESPN stream aired their pre-fight feature with interviews from both fighters. Once the video was done, a somber booth of broadcasters explained Barber wasn't ready to fight. Advertisement One commercial break later, they announced the fight had been canceled due to a "last-minute medical issue" for Barber, who couldn't receive medical clearance to enter the Octagon. Blanchfield later said in an interview that UFC executive Hunter Campbell told her Barber had suffered a seizure. Blanchfield added she was "a little in disbelief" before explaining just how late the fight was called: "We were told six minutes to the walkout. We already warmed up, I had pads, I was warming up with my training partner. I was literally ready to go. I feel like I could already smell the cage. I was ready, and then we just got the news." The day before the fight, Barber missed weight by a half-pound and was forced to forfeit 20% of her purse to Blanchfield, part of a host of weight-related issues on the card. Blanchfield had said repeatedly this week she was skeptical Barber would even make the fight, but admitted Saturday she thought they were in the clear once Barber reached the scales. When asked if she would entertain a new fight date against Barber, she quickly shot it down: "No, my coaches right away were like, 'Don't entertain her, she's not on your level, super unprofessional.'" Advertisement Barber entered the bout on a six-fight win streak, while Blanchfield was coming off a rebound win over former champion Rose Namajunas after suffering her first UFC loss to Manon Fiorot in March 2024. Both fighters are ranked in the top five of the UFC's women's flyweight division and would have been a step closer to a title shot with a win. Blanchfield indicated she would like a new fight set up against a different top-five opponent. It's unclear what Barber will be able to do in the short term.
