Phoenix Nights
Peter Kay's Phoenix Nights is a British comedy show about The Phoenix Club, a working men's club in the northern English town of Farnworth, Greater Manchester. Neil Fitzmaurice, Peter Kay, and Dave Spikey wrote the show. It was made by Goodnight Vienna Productions and Ovation Entertainments, and Channel 4 in the UK showed it. Toni Baker and Peter Kay wrote all of the songs. Paddy McGuinness provided more information. There have been two series made, and they were first shown in 2001 and 2002. The show is a spin-off of the spoof documentary series That Peter Kay Thing, which in turn led to the spin-off Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere. At the British Comedy Awards in2002, it won the People's Choice Award and was nominated for several others. Kay also plays multiple roles on the show and directed the second season. Kay said on BBC Radio 1 in September 2006 that a third series of Phoenix Nights has been written, but no one knows when it will be filmed. On May8,2007, Kay made another announcement saying that a new series will be made. But in interviews with The Sentinel and the Croydon Guardian in late2009, Dave Spikey said that neither he nor Neil Fitzmaurice knew of any plans to bring the show back.
