Michael McIntyre

Radio Times review

Simon Pegg, who went from hopeless, endearing sci-fi nerd Tim in the brilliant Channel 4 cult comedy Spaced to Hollywood megastar after Shaun of the Dead and Star Trek, takes his seat on the red sofa.

He will talk about his new romcom, Man Up, in which he stars with American actress Lake Bell as a mismatched couple who meet, in a case of mistaken identity, on a blind date.

In the comedy corner is Michael McIntyre at the start of his Happy and Glorious national tour, and you'd better smile like you mean it, because the Killers' frontman Brandon Flowers performs his solo single, I Can Change.

Pictures: Michael McIntyre drives his £150,000 Ferrari

He earned the title of the world's biggest selling comedian in 2012, and Michael McIntyre is still reaping the benefits of his lucrative job. The comedian was spotted driving his Ferrari worth £150,000 to a London dinner date with wife Kitty on Tuesday.

In a cracking special, comedian Michael McIntyre is presenting a whole host of variety in Michael McIntyre's Easter Night At The Coliseum.

Filmed at the majestic Coliseum in the heart of London's Theatreland, Michael will do his own brand of stand up, whilst also welcoming a stellar line-up of other comedians on stage too. He'll also be joined by singing superstars and jaw-dropping speciality acts.

Ella Henderson and Sia are two of the artists exercising their vocal cords, and Eddie Izzard and Bill Bailey will entertain us with some comedy. Catherine Tate's infamous Nan will also be stopping by to have her say.

Radio Times review

Variety is dead, apart from the several annual TV spectaculars that show it isn't. This one is fronted by cool people's least favourite stand-up, the superb Michael McIntyre, and takes place in a proper West End theatre.

Other comics on the bill include Eddie Izzard, Bill Bailey and, intriguingly given that she's no longer known for solo stage work, Catherine Tate. There's music from US star Sia and our very own Ella Henderson, and some magic, too: Mat Franco, who is getting people talking in the States, makes his UK debut.

Michael McIntyre: jokes and one-liners

Michael McIntyre's Christmas Charity Show review

Michael McIntyre's exuberant delight in the business of Crimbo proves wholly infectious.

Review: Michael McIntyre

The brilliance of his comedy is the use of his voice & physicality on the stage. He can make the most mundane of everyday things into a very humorous situation and this was certainly the case at the Colston Hall in front of a very appreciative audience.

Opinion: What I won't miss about Lee Evans

The trouble is that his observational humour that was actually quite pioneering back in the late eighties has become mainstream comedy currency. I'm not saying others do his schtick better, but the likes of Peter Kay, Michael McIntyre and Jason Manford all do it just as well. And if you really need someone to do the gags in a working class London accent there's always Micky Flanagan.
