The Services

Well Channel 4 must be having a Peter Kay week or something this week, but I never knew about this one until the other day like, I've just watched and I can say it was very funny, though there were some Peter Kay motifs and stuff that he has done in recent stuff, but there were some great one-liners like...

"Today's prizes are a Health Spa, a foot spa and a £20 voucher for your local Spar"
"Bloody French, don't speak a word of English!"
"Channel 5! It's all bloody quiz shows and repeats!"

Anyone else see it? Thoughts....

If anyone wants to see it again, its on S4C on Thursday morning at 2.50.

I thought it was a brand-new Peter Kay programme, but it was just a repeat from 1998 - ironic when you consider the 'five' joke in the show.

It was OK - didn't make me laugh much, though.

I thought it was very funny... especially having done a local radio roadshow once that was even less well-attended than the Chorley FM one!

Also the bit at the end where the manageress walked out of the toilet shouting 'I don't care whose it is or what it is, but it's floating' had me laughing like a girl.

Yeah, that was great

Anyone know when the Phoenix Nights spin-off Max and Paddy is due on our screens - they've been talking about since they launched the Winter schedule?

They have made the show now, from what I am guessing it will probably be on in the Autumn, as Channel 4 are probably treating more seriously this time round due to the success of Phoenix Nights, I am certainately looking foward to it.

Though Patrick McGuiness (Paddy) was in The Services last night, he was one of the team in the red shirts, though he had scarily long hair!

Hopefully there'll also be a DVD of That Peter Kay Thing out in the Autumn. I'm sure it was supposed to have been out last year, but they keep putting it back.

The Services was one of Kay's one-off test performances. The trailer for next week's show was a spoof!

Just to let you all know

Peter was on top form again tonight! His script makes me laugh everytime!

Yeah shame it was a one-off, as it had something to do with The Comedy Lab.

I liked tonight's show it was good, especially his entrance in with the big yellow MEN coat, with the Amarillo song by Tom Jones being played.

The only sh*t thing was that the majority of it was on the Bolton Albert Halls DVD.

Yeah, was gonna mention that myself - was this show part of the Bungalow tour??

It was part of the Bungalow tour - on his 30th birthday.

Amarillo is performed by Tony Christie - although Tom Jones and Tony Christie are similar

Fantastic ratings for Peter Kay - 6.7m. Although it's arguable to say Big Brother helped him, an extra 1m viewers tuned in at 9.30pm as 5.7m watched the first BB show, with 7.1m watching the second.

Another good night for C4.
