MICHAEL’S BIG MISS
Michael Mcintyre’s Big Show, a winter BBC1 hit since 2016, has been scrapped for the forseeable future. ‘We’ve parked it,’ says Michael, who can currently be seen in Michael Mcintyre: Showman on Netflix. ‘It will return, in 20something, but a show filmed in front of a packed theatre and that involves breaking into celebrities’ bedrooms is horribly against social distancing rules.’
