“I suppose I'm always a little bit on edge.” — Michael McIntyre Quote

I suppose I'm always a little bit on edge.

There's nothing better than having a bright, blinding light in your face and being guided by big, rolling laughter. There's nothing more encouraging than hearing that huge sound. I've waited my whole life to hear that. You come away with the biggest high of your life.

Sometimes it's difficult to laugh at certain things but comedy can help.

Britain's Got Talent' is about those moments when an unknown person takes to the stage and changes their life in the space of a few minutes.

I thought I was going to do some cult, cool, late-night interviewing thing on BBC2. But everyone kept saying: 'No, Michael, you're teatime, you're not cool.'

It seems to me, thinking of it, that there must be some universal plan which set in motion the orbiting of the electrons about the nucleus and the slower, more majestic orbit of the galaxies about one another to the very edge of space.

These days, the Rolling Stones still have an edge, but that fangs-out ferocity has mellowed considerably.

For me, Edge was just a character.

The last thing I want is for people to say that the music is nice. It's not nice. It sounds good, but it's got grit, and it's got edge. It never veers into sweet.

I am a variety machine; I look for variety in my characters, and an extra edge in the characterisation helps in bringing out a better performance.
