Comedian Michael McIntyre reveals his castaway choices with Kirsty Young.

In a specially extended edition for 麻豆社 Radio 4 Extra, Michael shares his life story and explains his musical, book and luxury choices.

Michael McIntyre has gone from being an unknown stand-up with debts of more than 拢30,000 to become one of the most successful comedians in the business - with awards, chart topping DVDs and sell-out arena shows under his belt.

He says: "I was on the circuit for years, I did get more and more in debt - it really did drag on and I just couldn't get a break. But when my chance came, I'd envisaged it so many times, I wasn't even nervous. I knew I could do it."
