About this listen
The riveting, poignant and remarkably honest biography from Britain's biggest comedy star, Michael McIntyre, brought to you by Penguin.
His debut stand-up DVD, Live & Laughing, was the fastest selling of all time.
Now he hosts his own BAFTA nominated BBC1 series, Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow, and has won the British Comedy Award for Best Live Stand-up.
But how did he get there?
In his compelling autobiography, Michael McIntyre reveals all.
With deeply personal and captivating narration, Michael unveils his incredible journey: from his showbiz roots, to his appalling attempts to attract the opposite sex, to going from selling just one ticket at the Edinburgh Festival to half a million at his last tour.
Written and narrated by Michael himself, Life and Laughing is the hilarious performance and life story from one of the country's most loved comics.

So Open and entertaining
Being a staunch true crime fan, I only just recently and inadvertently downloaded Alec Baldwin's memoir - which I loved..... so on a roll downloaded Michael's memoir as he just makes me laugh with his natural day to day; true to real life experiences that really makes me laugh out loud no matter how many times I hear/see it.... his memoir is just the same. Totally entertaining and made me laugh, unfortunately as I was listening while painting, caused me to have to correct some detail on my canvas. What a hoot he is. He strikes me as a really loveable human being with an innate ability to make humour out of everyday living. (I just wonder what his wife thinks of him using her in his material : ) I'd love to invite this man and his sweet wife to my house for dinner.

A great story will told
Had a great laugh and a few tears. Highly recommend it.
Although it has left me wanting Michael to read the screen play!

Perfect!! Very funny & poignant
Loved this so much.I Iike Michael even more now I know his story. His narration is amazing. I laughed a lot, cried a little & even felt anxious in moments as Michael stepped on stage at his first Royal Variety performance. Can't wait for the next book!

Had me in stitches
I am so glad I listened to this audiobook. The very first chapter had me wiping tears from eyes. This is one of the first books I'd listened to that I was devastated to come to the end.
I only learned about Michael recently when I saw send to all on YouTube. But now I have his whole back catalogue to jump into.
Well worth the listen.

Brilliantly funny. Couldn't stop listening
You have to listen, going to listen again. So funny and real. Love the accents and 80's flashbacks. Hilarious.
