Jim Bowen also helped in the translation of the oldest known joke-book by testing the material with an audience to make sure the translation got the humour as well as the literal meanings.

2024-06-03 13:51:21 +0000 UTCWe have 2 main courts in the UK a magistrates which deal with everything from divorce (nothing more than a meeting room usually) to low level crimes or felonies as you guys call them. Such as anti social behaviour,speeding fines etc. More serious crimes go to the Crown Court where there are Barristers which are in addition to a solicitor or lawyer as you call them (one prosecuting and one defending) they wear the wigs and so do some Judges. There is quite a serious reason to them and its far from a gimmick.

2024-05-27 00:55:21 +0000 UTCThese are magistrates, no wigs. We have crown court for more serious crimes. That's where they wear the wigs.

2024-05-24 17:35:01 +0000 UTCLol...seeing an American react to spit the dog...think Bob And Spit are refranced in both series

2024-05-20 20:41:38 +0000 UTC8:23 better warm than well done. Lol, if you don't know the reason den Perry says to Brian Potter " just nip inside brian see if my jacket potato is done , better warm than well done" is because we british sometimes cook Jacket Potatoes in the oven and just like Brian's Pheonix club is burnt a jacket potatoe can also get burnt in the oven so den perry is basically rubbing it in Brian's face that the Pheonix club his burnt kind of like a jacket potato can be.

2024-05-20 17:11:48 +0000 UTCI'm sure Queen Boomer would enjoy this show...if she hasn't seen it already.
Robert Trainer
2024-05-20 02:24:13 +0000 UTCWe have 3 courts magistrates for lower crimes, crown court for serious crimes and civil court. Crown court wear the wigs.

2024-05-18 18:02:07 +0000 UTCI've seen it blurred elsewhere. Not sure why. We know Peter didn't mind having a dig at someone with the Keith Lard thing, my guess is it was someones actual phone number and people called it. what else could it be? ... update, just looked it up. Yep, (apparently) he was very unprofessional and put actors phone numbers in there. I say apparently because I read it on a forum, not from Peters lips

2024-05-17 22:17:18 +0000 UTCI met them in a Pantomime here in the early 80s. They were in Babes in the Woods. Why am I saying them for? It was only Bob with a puppet.
Mouse
2024-05-17 03:32:48 +0000 UTCGARLIC BREAD!?!!? is a reference to probably Peter's most famous joke, worth reacting for Youtube KB
Matt
2024-05-16 22:58:11 +0000 UTCTony Christie originally, they did it in this show, then Peter Kay did it for like Comic Relief or something and they released it as a single (for charity i believe)
Matt
2024-05-16 22:56:20 +0000 UTCActually, was the name in Brian's black book blurred out originally, for mystery or did KB have to blur it out? If so, what did it say?
Joe Thornhill
2024-05-16 17:26:29 +0000 UTCOk, Is Max and Paddy singing 'Amarillo' meta, or did someone else write/sing it before this and that music video came out after this? Either way, nice touch.
Joe Thornhill
2024-05-16 17:09:39 +0000 UTCDen Perry - "Hey Brian just nip inside see if my jacket potato is done" lol , love that scene and the dog Puppet spitting at that woman lol.
Will
2024-05-16 17:01:59 +0000 UTC'Spit' the dog. I loved him lol
John Hastie
2024-05-16 12:55:18 +0000 UTCYeah he was. Mean more that it came from here where I picked it up from than anywhere else.

2024-05-16 10:37:28 +0000 UTCBart Simpson was saying it in the early 90s :P

2024-05-16 10:02:21 +0000 UTCI feel the same way when I see max and paddy driving down Halliwell Road π Ran a shop on there for 10 years

2024-05-16 09:01:38 +0000 UTCNowt wrong with a good corn beef hash!
Gary Evans
2024-05-16 08:38:24 +0000 UTCA lot of stuff was better back then but there was also a lot of stuff like this example, which you just can't work out now why they were famous lol.
BigChanChan
2024-05-16 04:05:34 +0000 UTCIn memory of Alan is a reference to a coronation street (soap opera) bad guy called Alan Bradley from decades ago, who died in the show by being hit by a tram in that spot. The muppet with the wig is played by Jim Bowen, a comedian and was famous as the host of bullseye. His outtakes from this episode are on YouTube and worth watching. Ironside is a famous old tv show, and I think itβs from America. A disabled lawyer I think.

2024-05-15 22:08:30 +0000 UTCLaughing at KB's bemused reaction to the appearance of Bob Carolgees and Spit the Dog - another little insight into classic British entertainment!
Henry Graham
2024-05-15 20:56:29 +0000 UTCBlackpool , on the coast of north-west England , is the coastal resort featured in this episode. Traditionally , in the past , the place to go for your summer holidays, especially if you were working class and living in or near big industrial cities such as Liverpool and Manchester. Also very popular with Glaswegians. Nowadays perhaps better known for a place to go for hen and stag weekends. Apparently a bit run down these days, it still has quite a bit to offer: a sandy beach, Blackpool Tower - complete with famous ballroom, the Pleasure Beach Fairground, the trams, and the Blackpool Illuminations along the seafront each autumn.

2024-05-15 20:30:30 +0000 UTCThe character with the wig - played by the late great comedian Jim Bowen. Probably best known for the popular TV darts based quiz: Bullseye ! "Great, smashing, super" πππ

Karen bye
2024-05-15 19:13:18 +0000 UTCYeah, as mentioned above - Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere is a brilliant spinoff.
Stefan
2024-05-15 18:27:41 +0000 UTCKing boomer! The meat van guy... please do a reaction to Tom stade meat van man. An American comedian in the UK who is hilarious. π you'll love the way he describes the meat van in the uk markets.
Tim Phillipson
2024-05-15 17:24:39 +0000 UTCThe first song Max & Paddy were singing in the van was 'I could be so good for you' which was the theme song for the classic comedy drama 'Minder', back in the 80's the two biggest shows were Minder on ITV with Arthur Daley a ducking and diving con man and on BBC Only Fools with Del Boy. I hope one day you get round to doing this show too.
Jason Bonner
2024-05-15 17:21:00 +0000 UTCIt's sort of paddy's fault that the club burnt down. If you notice, he threw away the hair spray thing in the same bin
HG
2024-05-15 17:16:18 +0000 UTCWigs are worn in a crown court not magistrates courts. Although in magistrates courts you will normally get more than 1 magistrate judge. Sometimes 3. And they are all volunteers. In a crown court you'll get 1 judge and a jury.
Tim Phillipson
2024-05-15 17:10:13 +0000 UTCThat's my local Asda Jerry is singing in! Astley Bridge. I'm beaming with pride as I write this π

2024-05-15 16:59:12 +0000 UTCGets better and better this series, absolutely love it
Mackem
2024-05-15 16:56:16 +0000 UTCIronside is a running joke, as it refers to the American tv show βironsideβ where the lead is in a wheelchair, its the same with a lot of hidden jokes like βsweet truck haulβ (say that 7 times drunk,) on the lorry cab in the first episode and in this new series! Btw the bloopers on the dvd extra with Jim Bowen, the hotel owner with the syrup are hilarious!
Andi Main
2024-05-15 16:56:11 +0000 UTC"He was just about to get to the vinegar strokes and his mobile phone went off.... Can I call you back Mum?" π€£. That bit always makes me laugh. A lot of subtle or regional humour that KB missed in this episode, understandably.
Jay
2024-05-15 16:54:08 +0000 UTCIn memory of Alan was reference to an old soap opera 'shock' death where the character was hit by a tram.
Kristopher Barton
2024-05-15 16:50:10 +0000 UTCBob Carolgees and Spit the Dog, a very popular act back n the day. This was a magistrates court where relatively minor legal infractions are addressed.
Mark Williamson
2024-05-15 16:46:07 +0000 UTCMy favourite episode of the whole series is the next episode. Can't wait!
Mr Matthews
2024-05-15 16:44:27 +0000 UTCAnd the flowers "in memory of Alan" were an injoke to the death of Alan Bradley, a TV soap character from coronation street who got hit by a tram π€£π€£

2024-05-15 16:41:53 +0000 UTC"Muppet with a wig" how dare you KB, that is legendary Jim Bowen, check out the gameshow Bullseye
Jaxon's Jerseys
2024-05-15 16:40:36 +0000 UTCGet Bent... yet another term I use weekly if not more.. almost forgot it came from here!
Gem Lou
2024-05-15 16:39:09 +0000 UTCSpit the dog and Bob Carolgies (spelling) was a kids entertainer way back when. It's one of the little subtle jokes they throw in there. As if he'd be hosting a jerry springer-type show. Brilliant. Kenny Senior is my favourite character. Absolute bullshitter. Like Jat from the Inbetweeners, but a little sadder.
Kristopher Barton
2024-05-15 16:29:56 +0000 UTCThat's correct is normally only the high court
Rob Green
2024-05-15 16:20:51 +0000 UTCI think wigs are worn in a crown court. This is a magistrates court
Simon Barker
2024-05-15 16:14:48 +0000 UTCI could be wrong (please someone correct me if so) but I believe in the lower courts (for example magistrates / county courts) they don't typically wear the court wigs, or at-least it's at their discretion. You generally only see them wearing that attire in the higher courts (crown / supreme courts) as I understand it
Will Lynch
2024-05-15 16:09:12 +0000 UTCLoving the phoenix nights. Max and paddy road to nowhere was great after this to
