4.0 out of 5 stars The saga the father-in-law's soggy sock., 5 Nov 2008

(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
If you've already seen Michael McIntyre's 'Live at the Apollo', and watched him on various panel comedy shows then you'll be pleased to hear that his "Live and Laughing" tour isn't a re-working of his older material, although some of it does seem to be cropping up when he makes appearances on TV - but that's to be expected.

Yes there are a couple of lines which you may have seen practised on Mock the Week or something like that, but you watch this and feel that you're getting good value for money. McIntyre takes inspiration from his home life for much of the show, from his seemingly anti-Semitic baby, to booking a holiday, to the 'man drawer' (where the old batteries, keys to the old house, and the old mobile phones live) and this insight into his life makes him more endearing.

In a nutshell: I really enjoyed watching this tour live (at Sheffield) and my wife laughed so much that she was hurting. I initially gave this 4 stars, but in retrospect I think it deserves 5. The Live at the Apollo performance which is included on this DVD contains his legendary 'man getting his head stuck in the tube train doors' routine which always has me in stitches no matter how many times I watch it. This is a brilliant stand up performance, a lot of creative imagination has gone into it, and I do not doubt that you will laugh until you have tears.

Many stand-up DVDs contain nothing you haven't seen performed before, but the main feature is pretty much all new material, and the Live at the Apollo routine is effectively his 'best of the rest' - and it's all good!

5.0 out of 5 stars Ah yes, humour without cruelty - I remember that!, 28 Nov 2008
By S. Miller - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
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!

5.0 out of 5 stars The live version, 19 Sep 2008
I went to see Michael McIntyre at The Place in Shropshire where, at the end, he informed us he was practising his set ready to film his DVD the next day. If it has half the act he gave, it is well worth the money, he had me in stitches the whole night! From tractors to his newborn son he covers it all. The second half is a little more risqué, and you might want to make the children leave the room to avoid the swearing but on the whole another cracking performance!
