Customer Reviews

A National Treasure!5
Michael McIntyre is one of Britain's best comedians and will definitely stand 'the test of time'. This DVD is a testament to his comedy genius. If you want to ache with laughter - buy the DVD.

Ah yes, humour without cruelty - I remember that!5
After seeing the likes of Jimmy Carr (a clever man whose live comedy unfortunately is derived from being nasty,cynical and cruel at heart) and Frankie Boyle (funny but again feeds on cruety and hate to get laughs) - it's so nice to see someone like Michael McIntyre perform live.

Although it is traditional observational comedy, there's nothing wrong with it when it's done this well.

Very few comedians make both my wife and I literally cry with laughter but I have to say that when Michael mentioned "The Loft Whores" (won't spoil the rest), we had to stop the DVD for 5 minutes to recover ourselves.

This is funny stuff, well performed, and it doesn't require you to laugh at someone else's misfortune or ask you to hate someone else before you can laugh at the joke!

Excellent5
Thought it was hilarious, right up there with Lee Evans, Jack Dee and Peter Kay
