You probably are very well aware of Michael, but here in the Antipodes, I am often behind the eight ball when it comes to good comedy.

I have occasionally seen McIntyre on HIGNFY, but obviously there in that environment, he is swamped by the likes of Merton, etc... Just by chance I came across him on You Tube, and I think he's ace, as well as something rarer these days -a clean comic.

Wonderfully funny stuff, Malcolm. I'd not seen him in full flow either till just now, and I had to watch all three parts, giving me an extended and hugely enjoyable coffee break. I particularly enjoyed his Scottish accent, and the bit about the Scottish money - that's me, that is. Great stuff - I'll enjoy more next coffee break.
I apologise, in advance.

He's already started to get some stick for being "safe" and "bland" but he can be very funny. I like him.

He's a bit like a cross between Billy Connolly and Ronnie Corbett, but I desperately don't want to think about that any more.
I apologise, in advance.
