If there's one person who knows how to lend a voice-over narration some gravitas, it's Morgan Freeman.

While chatting about The Shawshank Redemption during an appearance on The Graham Norton Show, Freeman was challenged to lend his glorious voice to a Shawshank-style parody. 

And boy, did he deliver.

"I must admit I didn't think much of Graham Norton the first time I laid eyes on him," reads Freeman in the clip above. "Looked like a stiff breeze could blow him over... that was my first impression of the man.

"...And boy, did he drink."

Beautiful.
