Brilliant telly. So much humor all crammed into it. I love the snippets of the end of conversations that you hear when the clip starts...
Den Perry "anyway lads, like I say, she has got a cock, so you have been warned"
The bit that has had me in tears of laughter tonight is:
"Channel 4 and Peter Kay would like to state that the character of Keith Lard may have led some persons to wrongly believe that the character was based on a Mr. Keith Laird. We wish to make it clear that this is not the case, and would like to apologise to Mr. Laird and his family for the distress caused. We have also agreed to make a donation to the Fire Service Benevolent Fund and to Mr. Laird's family for his and his family's personal distress."
"Mr. Laird's contribution to fire safety in Bolton is well documented and his professionalism and personal integrity are not in any doubt. If you would like more information on fire safety either contact your local fire station or go to channel4.com/firesafety for a list of links to useful websites. This information has been put together with the co-operation of both Greater Manchester County Fire Service and Keith Laird."

It's genius
In the next couple of months I've tickets to see Daniel kitson, Janice 'Barbara nice' Connolly and Dave Spikey standup gigs
Well worth checking out the entire cast of Phoenix nights, they are all brilliant stand up comedians (although Mr Kay's last tour was a bit weak)
Ah, I've not seen this in ages, I have the boxset upstairs. Genius programme, and I'm a southerner.
Ray Von has to be my favourite character though.
Didn't Daniel Kitson fall out with Peter Kay afterwards? Something to do with Kay taking credit for work he and Dave Spikey did.
garlic bread.. job done.. smiles for rest of evening
"Sweet baby Jesus and the orphans!"
"shut your legs you little slut"
"watch your mouth, there's a child's bike outside"
The Half a Sixpence gig is a classic!
Well I'm a southerner and I think its funny. Mind you when I was working up that way I was a regular guest at the Mercury Motel in Westhoughton. Big band night was the highlight of the week, straight out of Pheonix nights.
Watched the new tour DVD last night. Brilliant!
The school teachers bit was amazing, had me crying.
