I love comedy, I love stand up, improv, sitcoms, heck I`ll even watch a romcom if its got some funny bits in, when Peter Kay came on the scene with his proper bolton voice there was an instant like of him, his humor and catchphrases were relateable and Phoenix nights has some of the best scripting I’ve seen..
You did your first tour and that was great, then you did your next one and took a break from stand up and thats fine, but still kept releasing DVD’s….
Live at Live at manchester Arena..
Stand Up UKay..
These three are bascially the same material for the price of a new DVD… and people who don’t know this buy it and its a waste of money.. when it comes to a point that a DVD has 70 reviews and 62 of them are one star, you’ve either made a bad dvd or made one about scientology.
I havn’t kept up with this woman you’ve been pretending to be but no doubt there will be a couple of DVD’s in the pipeline for that..
I’m now recommending Michael Macintyre and Jason Manford to people who ask me who to see in comedy..

I entirely agree. Stewart Lee and Frankie Boyle are my favourites right now.
Frankie Boyle is hilarious, he’s my favourite too at the moment. I don’t understand why they keep showing that Peter-Kay-woman on telly – I saw it weeks ago but it was on again last weekend. The show is about 7 hours long – far too long for a repeat in my opinion – you could show 3 Midsomer Murders for that.
I can only take Peter Kay in very small doses. Don’t watch him these days, instead tend go for the wordsmithing Stephen Fry style of humour. Taste formed I suspect by growing up way back when with the emergence of satire on TV.
Check out David O’Doherty. He’s really good standup. We saw him in London a couple of weeks ago. Didn’t stop laughing the whole time. 5*
Charlie Chuck (Uncle Peter) best northern comedian for me everytime! WOOF BARK DONKEY!
The X Factor/Dancing on Ice etc programme he did was utter cliched predictable rubbish.
Yes, PK’s output has been disappointing since he went all charideeee work.
I like the early Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry humor. Also John Cleese and like. And especially Roan Atkinson. When I was young (A long time ago!) I would listen to the radio in the UK. Such people as Round the Horne, Ray’s a Laugh and many I forget.
