That’s right… it was one year ago that our fearless leader called us to follow him on the tweety and assemble in the hollowed-out volcano. It hardly seems like an entire year has gone by but 1100+ tweets and more than half million followers later, @CraigyFerg<\/a> is still going strong.\r\n\r\nVideo courtesy: TVsCraigFerguson<\/span>\r\n<\/embed><\/object>\r\n\r\n\"\"<\/a>Monday on the Late Late Show, it’s Craig’s first day back after the birth of his son Liam.\u00c2\u00a0 Craig will answer tweets and emails with actor Dominic Monaghan<\/strong>, chat with actress Gabrielle Union<\/strong> and bring us a performance by comedian Kurt Metzger<\/strong>.\u00c2\u00a0 Tuesday, Craig welcomes actress Emily Blunt<\/strong> and Egyptologist Dr. Kara Cooney.<\/strong>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
