Peter Kays Phoenix Nights Series 1 DVD Report

Phoenix Nights is set in a northern social club, Peter Kay co-writes and stars as a range of characters in this unique comedy classic. Peter plays Brian Potter, the wheelchair-bound owner of the fire-blighted Phoenix Club in Bolton, who's determined to see it rise from the ashes. Aiding Brian at the Phoenix are his motley staff: the resident MC Jerry St Clair (Dave Spikey); the dangerously keen electrician DJ Ray; the useless doormen Max and Paddy; the bar and cleaning staff Holy Mary and Marion; the gormless handyman Kenny; and the musical twosome Alan and Les (Les Alanos).

Phoenix Nights Series 1 sees legendary social club owner Brian Potter and his hapless band of staff and regulars determined to make the Phoenix Club a success, no matter what. Not even a racist folk band, an unforeseeable psychic or a drunken horse will get in the way of their dream that club land will never die. Good cameo appearances from Roy Walker and Tim Healy too!

This was almost as good as series two, but not quite, but still really funny and well thought out!
