Not dead, just rewatching Phoenix Nights 20 years later.

The zenith of his career imo. Just sublime.

I’ve heard a rumour this week about the whole streaming thing and lack of dvd availability. Spikey and Kay being in dispute over royalties???

Come get your black bin bags!

The DVD box set gets dug out regularly in my house. Relatable for me too seeing as I’ve spend a fair few nights at the typical northern WMC

I’m waaaay overdue a watch. This thread has motivated me to dig the dvds out the cupboard! So many good scenes.

From the opening scenes – Colon Care with Bob Carolgees I knew the references were going to be spot on.

And the racist folk band….

And I still can’t hear Stranraer on the football scores without doing the voice

I’ll hold up my hand, I’ve watched very little Phoenix Nights. Maybe a handful of episodes. However this:

How far away are they?

makes me giggle like a halfwit every time I think about it. McGuinness’s delivery was award-worthy.

It’s throwaway stuff like this which just creases me. Like in Blackpool, flowers taped to a lamp-post in loving memory of Alan Bradley. Never referenced, just there in the background. Or (IIRC) Paddy having Kay in his phone book as Ironside.

I probably should revisit it.

Geraldine McQueen and Car Share hit the same highs as well.

I like the fact that he doesn’t just churn product out unless it’s been worked to perfection, not just the script but every detail of how it’s recorded and filmed.

I used to have the DVD box set but don’t know what happened to them. Loved all the out takes as well. Some on YouTube.

Watched a few youtube clips this morning and the detail does it for me, the bit where the TV get’s nicked and there’s 5 or 6 old blokes just watching a documentary on the life cycle of an amoeba while it happens.

When he get’s stuck on the landing in the stair chair and there’s just a framed picture of a pit bull terrier on the wall, someones obviously thought what would he have on the wall here, oh yeah, a pic of a pit bull, love that. Hate it when a comedy is just one dimensional and really surface light kind of thing

‘Who popped his head out of the tent next to me, only Robert De Niro, De Niro loves Rhyl, he’s making the next Deerhunter there’ – love that kind of stuff that get’s added here and there
