British Comedy Guide, 13th January 2020Gavin & Stacey odds-on to be the best rated Xmas show
The Gavin & Stacey Christmas special is the bookmaker's odds-on favourite to be the top-rated Christmas TV show, ahead of the highly anticipated return.
Callum Wilson, Odds Checker, 20th December 2019Whether he is waking unsuspecting victims in the middle of the night or ransacking celebs' phones, Michael McIntyre is never knowingly underworked on his Saturday night. This week, Harry Redknapp gets the Send to All treatment, while Westlife are rudely awoken.
Hannah J Davies, The Guardian, 7th December 2019One of the highlights of this old-fashioned variety hour is the segment where Michael lets himself into a celebrity's house by night (the front door is always conveniently open) and bursts into the bedroom to play pranks on the stunned victim.
Michael would be well advised not to try this game if he ever takes his show to the U.S., since most American celebs sleep with a shotgun over the bedstead and a handgun under the pillow.
Judge Rob Rinder was the guest this time and, though he was characteristically grumpy, he didn't attempt to shoot the intruder. Oddly, he appeared to have a bullet-proof glass balustrade around the bottom of his bed, so perhaps guns give him nightmares.
The best bit of the show is still the game in which Michael borrows a celeb's phone and sends a cheeky message to all their contacts. It gets funnier every time.
