A Funny Life: The Sunday Times Bestseller

Product Information

I read his previous autobiography many years ago and this follows on from 2006 and goes up to when he won a BAFTA in 2017. Laugh along with Michael McIntyre as he lifts the curtain on his life in his long-awaited autobiography. In fact Michael if the comedy and light entertainment world ever becomes too much for you, trust me when i say, you can act boy!

It's all here, from his disastrous panel show appearances to his hit TV shows, from mistakenly thinking he'd be a good chat show host and talent judge, to finding fame and fortune beyond his wildest dreams and becoming the biggest-selling comedian in the world. I really love the way he sees the humour in many things that to most people are just every-day occurences!

There's also little sections where he suggests you google something or watch something on YouTube which adds to the engagement. Refusing to shy away from the disasters that happened along the way too, you'll find it impossible not to laugh along with Michael as he explains why becoming a talent judge just wasn't for him, and the story of losing his trousers in front of three policemen. Anyway, “A Funny Life” is great – there are mixture of emotions; plenty of humour and jokes, but with further insights into Michael’s life.

There's also the birth of his two sons and his incredibly supportive wife as they go from crippling debt to struggling to get on the property ladder as well as hilarious anicdotes about past neighbours and such along the way. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Michael McIntyre is easily one of my favourite comedians, pop him on the telly and I'm guaranteed to be in tears of laughter within seconds.There’s a lot of elaborating what he’s achieved and what that has bought him in terms of money and possessions. Waking up the next morning in the tiny rented flat he shared with his wife Kitty and their one-year-old son, he was beyond excited about the new glamorous world of show business. Not to sound like an old woman but I’m not a fan of comedians who swear and joke about crude things just to get laughs.
