THE

nation’s favourite funnyman, Michael McIntyre, could find his perfect reputation inadvertently tarnished as a row is brewing over the furloughing of some staff at the production company behind his BBC1 hit show – as listed on the Government’s website. Squeakyclean national treasure Holly Willoughby could also be affected because the company, Hungry Bear Media, is owned by husband Dan Baldwin. Latest accounts show the firm has £3 million of assets. It is behind some top TV comedy shows, including All Round To Mrs Brown’s and Judge Romesh – as well as Michael McIntyre’s Big Show.
