NEW ENTERTAINMENT

Michael McIntyre’s Big Show

SATURDAY/ BBC1 / 8.10PM

Picture this. It’s 2am, you’re tucked up in bed, and already in a deep, dreamy sleep. Suddenly, the door bursts open and bright lights flood the room. You hear an excitable squeal from Michael McIntyre, who begins to bark quiz questions from the end of your bed!

It’s exactly the type of hilarious prank you’d expect to see in Michael McIntyre’s Big Show, which returns for a five-part run this week.

Back with its usual mix of music, chat and stand-up comedy, the entertainment-fest will this year feature a new spot called ‘Midnight Gameshow’, which sees Michael treat viewers to a rude awakening.
