In 2008 he was the fastest selling comedian at the Edinburgh Festival .[5] and sold out five nights at London's 3600 capacity Hammersmith Apollo Michael McIntyre has appeared twice on BBC One's Live at the Apollo and also on the Royal Variety Performance, in both 2006 and 2008. [6] His routine on We Are Most Amused, staged at the New Wimbledon Theatre on 12 November 2008 in aid of the Prince's Trust, was also televised. This comedy gala celebrated the 60th Birthday of Prince Charles, and was performed in the presence of The Prince of Wales and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall. Among McIntyre's many comedy panel show appearances are Mock the Week, 8 out of 10 Cats, Have I Got News for You, The Big Fat Quiz of the Year, Would I Lie To You?, and The Apprentice: You're Fired.

On 5 July 2009, McIntyre appeared on the BBC show Top Gear as the Star in a Reasonably-Priced Car and achieved a respectable time of 1 minute 48.7 seconds. During his lap, he almost rolled the car while going round the Gambon corner (named after Sir Michael Gambon who incidentally did the same thing in the old Reasonably Priced Car). McIntyre lives in Muswell Hill, London with his aromatherapist wife, Kitty, and their two sons, Lucas (born 2005) and Oscar (born 2008).[4] McIntyre also has a sister called Lucy who is two years his junior. McIntyre is a supporter of Tottenham Hotspur.[7] Whilst performing on stage in Wolverhampton in 2008, as he was walking back onto stage for his encore, McIntyre slipped, fell over and dislocated his shoulder. Many of the audience believed this to be part of his act and started to laugh, only after his manager came on stage to assist did they realise it was real.[8] from wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_McIntyre Copyright BBC/Michael Mcintyre
