Phoenix Nights S1 Ep1 REACTION!
Added 2024-04-11 16:00:05 +0000 UTCNew reaction, new characters, new muppetry!
Comments
In answer to your question of why Brian Potter is in a wheelchair. During this, a fully able Potter swam to collect the safe but in doing so, he found himself being pinned up by a floating fruit machine. He then entered a coma until the New Year. Upon exiting his coma, he was made aware that not only had the club been closed but he was also disabled from the waist down.

2024-12-29 23:55:12 +0000 UTCMax and paddy road to nowhere is clsss it’s a follow on from this
Chris
2024-05-17 20:56:55 +0000 UTCPeter Kay decided to not let this be repeated and at 36 I remember it but not tremendously well so think will watch with Brian/you here.

2024-04-28 20:39:26 +0000 UTCGreen Wing is excellent.
Dean Carter
2024-04-23 20:25:56 +0000 UTCMarks racist friend
Kevin Liversage
2024-04-22 20:35:41 +0000 UTCMax and paddy’s road to nowhere is an absolute must
Sean Grundy
2024-04-22 20:07:16 +0000 UTCI think max and Paddy's road to nowhere would probably be a better fit for your humour. It's like a spin off of this series
Deano
2024-04-20 15:34:53 +0000 UTCI used to watch this and I loved it. But my aunt and uncle did run a working men's club just like the Phoenix Club. I can see why many Americans won't get the humour and a lot of references will go over your head. It's not your fault. I think you'd love Coupling, and the randomness of Green Wing and Garth Marenghi's Darkplace a lot more.
Mark Fillingham
2024-04-17 00:57:26 +0000 UTCI know how much this show is loved in the UK and thought it was great too. I may wrong But I just don't know if the humour is transferable to someone who has never seen any northern culture. Peter Kay is an observational comic and if you've never observed this kind of thing in UK it prob won't be funny.
Miss_dash
2024-04-15 12:07:00 +0000 UTCWatch the mighty boosh instead. Very funny show, and requires no knowledge of British culture as its set in a different universe. Stars Noel Fielding (Richmond from IT Crowd), and Matt Berry (Douglas Reynolm from IT crowd).
GHKY HNeu
2024-04-15 11:33:00 +0000 UTCHonestly cannot see how you're going to get a lot of the references. It's a great programme, but I do think being British or having lived here is required to get this programme.
Matt
2024-04-14 22:53:03 +0000 UTCYeah the point is that it’s a racist dogwhistle and the journalist picks it up before Brian Potter does. It’s a racist song disguised as an “innocent” song (like the old music hall songs full of double entendres) so Potter doesn’t spot it till it’s pointed out.
Eleanor Elliott
2024-04-14 17:54:19 +0000 UTCGet the subtitles on King Boomer! That will definitely help
Eleanor Elliott
2024-04-14 17:36:15 +0000 UTCI'm from County Durham and I used to play in bands in 'clubland' - Ive explained the culture to him - predominantly that its stuck in the 70s haha
Craig McCulloch
2024-04-14 10:15:16 +0000 UTCNot to mention the accents. Although he'll get an ear for that probably quite quickly, but I think he'd have benefited from listening on headphones, and with proper subtitles
irreverend
2024-04-13 23:56:53 +0000 UTCI've never watched this before but it's clear he missed the bit where he explained about it being a song about shoes his dad bought him being the wrong colour. Which of course is the joke because out of context the song certainly does sound very racist
irreverend
2024-04-13 23:45:25 +0000 UTCwhoever suggested this is stretching boomers knowledge of northern british culture to the limit having him watch this, everything will go over your head and i don't blame you its incredibly niche
Joe
2024-04-13 19:41:21 +0000 UTCI think you'd enjoy Green wing, it was like a UK scrubs with lots of faces you'll recognise.
Richard Stanley
2024-04-13 19:29:33 +0000 UTCblackadder would have been a better choice tbh
Fieryjack
2024-04-13 18:34:56 +0000 UTCLove that you're doing PNights KB, i'm from this area, remember doing my driving lessons around this club. Its one of those programs that is funny, but it only get funnier with every re-watch, especially when you get to know the characters. Typical British cringe humour!!
Gary Evans
2024-04-13 08:49:53 +0000 UTCNever seen this, one of those series I just never got round to so I'm looking forward to it. Also shot about 20 mins down the road from where I am.
Chris C
2024-04-13 02:06:19 +0000 UTCBeing a midlander I've always been caught between two worlds; fortunately I can appreciate northern humour too, haha.
ALW
2024-04-13 01:24:35 +0000 UTCYou know Peter plays max too?
Rob webber
2024-04-13 01:11:27 +0000 UTCAlthough a Northern English humour there's enough wackiness, absurdity and drama that you'll enjoy. Don't worry about Benidorm. You'll get to know the story of the doormen ('bouncers') Max (Peter Kay) and Paddy (Patrick McGuiness) and how/why they end up in the spin-off 'Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere'. Look out for the rival club boss character 'Den Perry' owner of 'The Banana Grove'. Brian Potter's sworn enemy.
Fordy7169
2024-04-12 20:14:34 +0000 UTCFantastic show this is. Max and paddy’s long road to nowhere is also fantastic
Chris
2024-04-12 20:12:28 +0000 UTCi mean Brian
emu cat
2024-04-12 18:49:34 +0000 UTCYes, you did, Joe. See my comment above with the lyrics in it.
Ash X
2024-04-12 18:37:19 +0000 UTCI have NOT missed the point of the joke! Yes, the song is either deliberately or accidentally racist, but the song is actually about shoes. Whether the band understand that they are being racist or whether they are naive about the implications is not clear. The lyrics are: "Me father worked hard all his life down pits in't tannery, He laboured every hour God sent from June to January. He saved his pennies in a jar to buy his son some shoes, But when they sent him black instead of white he blew a bloody fuse. Send the buggers back, oh send the buggers back. These aren't the ones I wanted, son, I'm sending them straight back. I said I wanted white ones, they've sent us bloody black, I'm going to put the lid back on and send the buggers back."
Ash X
2024-04-12 18:34:04 +0000 UTCI am sure you can appreciate how a big daft Manc walking into the local village pub acting like he had known everybody in there for 10 years went down.
Dan
2024-04-12 18:05:01 +0000 UTCMust have been distracted. Missed it, sorry. what would be the point of ffw when i pay to watch his content. use your napper.

2024-04-12 17:58:32 +0000 UTCWho's Gary?
Joe Thornhill
2024-04-12 17:50:17 +0000 UTCI thought I heard something about shoes and/or dancing.
Joe Thornhill
2024-04-12 17:47:12 +0000 UTCYou don't watch when he pauses, then.
Joe Thornhill
2024-04-12 17:42:39 +0000 UTCThe outtakes are hilarious though. Same with Max and Paddy trip to nowhere
Sam Dilks
2024-04-12 17:16:45 +0000 UTCI’m literally from a small village in Hertfordshire🤣
Sam Dilks
2024-04-12 16:14:34 +0000 UTCBeing a northerner now living in London/Italy this certainly raised an eyebrow when I saw it pop up as latest reaction. Dry northern humour is so harsh to pick up on and almost aggressive at times. It can be totally missed or taken the wrong way. I could write a book on the way I was received after moving from Manchester to a small village in Hertfordshire. I can't see this lasting on the channel. KB's blank expression through most of the video says it all.
Dan
2024-04-12 16:10:37 +0000 UTCIt's a very specific northern English comedy!
Matt Wells
2024-04-12 16:10:11 +0000 UTCMax and Paddy is ace.
James Fallon
2024-04-12 13:59:04 +0000 UTCYes I am worried about picking up the humor. But we will see how it goes lol.
Brian Moran
2024-04-12 12:34:50 +0000 UTCAlan and Ray Von were both in Peepshow ☺
Chris Blackman
2024-04-12 12:15:32 +0000 UTCIf you understand and get the humour and jokes in this, then you sir King Boomer are a certified Brit. This is about a northern working man’s club very much bedded in early 00s northern UK, I’m 26 and from the south of England so haven’t really been graced with a working man’s club yet - so sometimes the humour even goes over my head👀
Sam Dilks
2024-04-12 08:33:13 +0000 UTCI love this show but I am worried the humour might be too British for KB? I think he will love Max And Paddy's Road To Nowhere though (as others have also suggested)
ZedMC
2024-04-12 06:44:00 +0000 UTCI was born & raised in Manchester and I have family from Bolton. This is my comfort show when I’m homesick. I’m really glad you’re reacting to this, although the humour is very northern England - even southerners don’t always find it funny, so I’m not sure how much of the humour will get lost in translation. Max & Paddy might be more funny for you, but it is a spin-off so you need to watch this first. I do hope you enjoy it but understand if not. Peter Kay’s Car Share would be something Queen Boomer would like. It’s heart warming comedy rather than a laugh a minute. Thanks for trying northern comedy King Boomer, keep it up!
JJ M
2024-04-12 06:20:55 +0000 UTCWhich peter kay character did you like, Potter in the wheelchair or Max the doorman lol
Jed Baker
2024-04-12 06:10:53 +0000 UTCIt's a grower, some subtle humour
Mark Jephson
2024-04-12 01:46:38 +0000 UTCIf you liked moss from the IT Crowd you should watch a film called 'the watch' it obviously has richard ayoade in it who plays moss also it has ben stiller, vince vaughn and jonah hill in it too its hilarious
Sophie
2024-04-12 00:06:44 +0000 UTCIts set in the early 2000's in lancashire, england so dont be suprised if some of the references are a bit off considering your from america
Sophie
2024-04-12 00:05:24 +0000 UTC"thats going out in a Botlon newspaper? you'll have trouble getting a crowd..." Sweet summer Brian its a northern workies in the 2000s... place will be packed.🤣🤣🤣
Craig McCulloch
2024-04-11 23:27:53 +0000 UTCDecent choice, yeah first episode is normally just to introduce setting, characters, etc and it gets better. It's not one of those shows which is constantly going for gag, gag, gag but normally centering around big gags here and there. Yeah that's Jeff and Lesley. Well spotted.
Matt
2024-04-11 22:39:55 +0000 UTCI so hope Blackadder is next on your list, series 2, 3 and 4
Duncan
2024-04-11 22:22:41 +0000 UTC🐕🐕🐕
Martin Nercessian
2024-04-11 22:16:40 +0000 UTCIt's bonkers, great series.
Martin Nercessian
2024-04-11 22:14:22 +0000 UTCMy sister had a health and safety talk by the guy the character was based on.
Martin Nercessian
2024-04-11 22:13:19 +0000 UTCYeah it lasts for 2 seasons and it NEVER gets as bad as Benidorm. Like a lot of sitcoms, the first episode is really just to introduce the characters.
Adam
2024-04-11 22:11:06 +0000 UTCIt gets so much better - one of my all time favourites. The Keith Lard episode is hilarious. Woof. 😂
Richard A
2024-04-11 22:04:26 +0000 UTCBloody Yanks, not noticing an obscure British 80's reference!
Adam
2024-04-11 22:02:51 +0000 UTCBig up Bolton!
Adam
2024-04-11 21:59:01 +0000 UTCStarting to get worried about this, I thought us Brits were known for our understanding of nuanced humour!
Adam
2024-04-11 21:41:29 +0000 UTCSorry Ash X, but I think you've missed the point of the joke. It is obviously a racist song, but the writers of the show are not celebrating it, but taking the piss out of people holding such beliefs.
Adam
2024-04-11 21:37:09 +0000 UTCDog reads maths book. This is going to be tough watching Brian miss most of the references of one of my all time fav series.
emu cat
2024-04-11 21:35:42 +0000 UTCIt does improve from here. Like Still Game (hope you get back to that one day) this gets going properly after the first episode. Both shows have weak pilots
Chris Silverthorne
2024-04-11 21:33:57 +0000 UTCI have to laugh at the comments taking the song in its literal sense, completely oblivious to the concept of allegory.
Jay
2024-04-11 21:16:44 +0000 UTCGET INNNN new show
Everton FC 🔷◽️🔷
2024-04-11 21:14:54 +0000 UTCBarely watchable for me this.
Tom Clancy
2024-04-11 20:56:03 +0000 UTCThe Detectorists is another show you should definitely watch.
Wayne Atkinson
2024-04-11 20:46:17 +0000 UTCYeah it helps enormously to have a good working knowledge of Northern tropes and British pop culture in general. Combine that with the accents and I think KB will struggle. Shame as it’s a belter for us to enjoy.
Chris Halsall
2024-04-11 20:40:36 +0000 UTCI can't believe you didn't notice Roy Walker from CatchPhrase.
Billy Rockets
2024-04-11 20:18:33 +0000 UTCHe didn't notice Jeff from Peep Show either.
Billy Rockets
2024-04-11 20:17:27 +0000 UTCYes!! So hype seeing this pop up in my email.
dingus
2024-04-11 20:11:25 +0000 UTCI'm from Northern Ireland and I love it. But as an American I think a lot will go over his head. Like Roy Walker and Catchphrase
Jonny Kingham
2024-04-11 20:06:06 +0000 UTCAre you doing Black Books? If you liked Father Ted and I.T. Crowd... and Mid Morning Matters follows on nicely from I'm Alan Partridge
Dean Carter
2024-04-11 19:47:38 +0000 UTCThis is a terrific show. It's one of the most parochial of UK sitcoms though, the humour is very northern and rooted in a certain naff quality of small-time British entertainment. I'll be interested to see how KB gets along with its sense of humour - and the accents!
Henry Graham
2024-04-11 19:30:33 +0000 UTCSo many people from benidorm pop up in phoenix nights.
Morgan
2024-04-11 19:27:42 +0000 UTCHahahahahahahaaha!!!!!!!! KB's perplexed look as they start singing "that" song. I'm gona save that as my desktop. I was wondering if you'd get what the subtext was, then you starting doubting yourself. Nope KB, you were bang on! Lol funny moment already.
Oliver
2024-04-11 19:26:19 +0000 UTCWith the song, the joke is that the song isn’t meant as offensive or racist. It depends on the context. The singer at the start explains the song is about a pair of holy communion shoes that his dad ordered and when they arrived they were the wrong colour. It’s easily missed but the point is meant as a reference to political correctness etc.
dale walden
2024-04-11 19:15:30 +0000 UTCChorley FM, coming in your ears 👂
Martin Nercessian
2024-04-11 19:14:40 +0000 UTCI'm glad Bolton is getting some love. We've got this, Fred Dibnah and not much else.
Martin Nercessian
2024-04-11 19:12:54 +0000 UTCIt's Bolton's turn, and about goddam time!!!
Martin Nercessian
2024-04-11 19:10:12 +0000 UTCThe song was about a boy who wanted white dance shoes but got given black shoes and then it's all abut sending the black shoes back! So it's not a racist song, it only sounded like a racist song! The Northern accents can be a bit difficult in places, especially because the actors can talk over each other or trail off at the end of a sentence, so it can be hard work to keep up, but I think most of it is understandable. It will take more than one episode to get into the rhythm of it.
Ash X
2024-04-11 19:09:54 +0000 UTCCar Share with QB.
Martin Nercessian
2024-04-11 19:05:32 +0000 UTCCompletely agree, be very hard to get some of the humour and characters if you're not northen.
Ben
2024-04-11 19:02:51 +0000 UTC😝
Martin Nercessian
2024-04-11 19:01:20 +0000 UTCIt does get a lot better!
MarkC
2024-04-11 18:49:54 +0000 UTCCar Share is certainly his most refined and commercial work he's done.
BigChanChan
2024-04-11 18:44:25 +0000 UTCThe humour can be very subtle in this... So much so, that I've seen other reactors miss a lot of it so we'll see how it goes.
BigChanChan
2024-04-11 18:42:20 +0000 UTCYes! So glad to see this. Definitely keep going.
Simply Tics
2024-04-11 18:41:13 +0000 UTCTo be honest, the accents are watered down if anything so you'd probably not understand us at all if you came up here lol.
BigChanChan
2024-04-11 18:41:01 +0000 UTCYeah, even Londoners and Southerners quite often don't get it... The jokes aren't that funny by themselves and only funny to me because I experienced similar situations living up North!
BigChanChan
2024-04-11 18:39:38 +0000 UTCCheck out 'ideal' johnny vegas plays a small time dealer that never leaves his flat but manages to get into some weird situations still. It's brilliant!
pem
2024-04-11 18:38:19 +0000 UTCI agree, I just watched it again and it was nowhere near funny as I remember but the characters develop... It's very gentle humour though... Max and Paddy is more obvious humour.
BigChanChan
2024-04-11 18:37:39 +0000 UTCI’m so glad you’ve chosen this to react to, this and max and paddy’s road to nowhere are two of my favourite shows. 👍🏻😁
dale walden
2024-04-11 18:33:01 +0000 UTCHe did notice, he mentioned it.
CraigRed
2024-04-11 18:27:03 +0000 UTCYh when he gets to Max and Paddy he will love it :) you will love future episodes.
Ryan Mitchell
2024-04-11 18:25:15 +0000 UTChope you watch the outtakes eventually they are funnier than a lot of modern comedies
Rhys Marshall
2024-04-11 18:24:58 +0000 UTCYou will love it. Amazing series
Andrew Bojas
2024-04-11 18:19:51 +0000 UTCPheonix Nights / Max and Paddy just KB and then Car Share with KB and QB
Starlight
2024-04-11 18:16:24 +0000 UTCYou’re in for treat
matthew edmonds
2024-04-11 18:14:08 +0000 UTCIt gets better, and the spin-off "Max & Paddy's Road To Nowhere" is pure gold.
(Just) Steve
2024-04-11 18:11:39 +0000 UTCThe auditions at the end of each episode are gold, think of the shitty scissors as the standard it’s like cowboy builders except in clubland heavy winging it and very funny and then max & paddy straight after it pow
Mr Robot
2024-04-11 18:10:19 +0000 UTCHaha I'm going to enjoy this reaction series. "I'm very friendly with the SAS" "But you see YOU'RE NOT Kenny!!!!" Will make sense later KB
Oliver

Craig
2024-04-11 17:32:19 +0000 UTCThis is soo scarily accurate to nothern club land....
Craig McCulloch
2024-04-11 17:27:29 +0000 UTCPhoenix Nights is good. But they did a spin-off show - “Max & Paddy’s Road to Nowhere” - and that was a lot better, for me. The storylines will be more relatable.
CraigRed
2024-04-11 17:17:22 +0000 UTCLove it total forget about this 💎 of a program . Big up Peter key
Dango247
2024-04-11 17:14:09 +0000 UTCand no you didn't hear it wrong yes it's racist rofl
James West
2024-04-11 17:13:42 +0000 UTCIt is Jeff and Leslie. Also Max the security guy who was on the bus is Peter Kay aswell (not sure if you noticed).
Lz Bristol
2024-04-11 17:04:42 +0000 UTCStick with the show because it's definitely a grower that gains pace, however for me personally it always felt a little bit overrated, though good. There are some really great moments. KB you may just struggle a bit with the northern English culture and accents...
Stuart Still
2024-04-11 17:04:40 +0000 UTCyou aint going to get this mate, its too regional
Dale McBurnie
2024-04-11 17:02:25 +0000 UTCThe main guy in the Racist Band is Lesley from Benidorm. Surprised you didn’t notice.
Pee-Wee Stairmaster
2024-04-11 17:01:01 +0000 UTCCar share? CAR SHARE? 🤣🤣🤣
Pee-Wee Stairmaster
2024-04-11 16:55:43 +0000 UTCdont know about this but the accents alone seem too much for me? and im from south uk lol. ill try not to judge it so fast but first impression is that it seems too forced, like the accent is exaggerated so the actors are more caricatures than characters. im happy to be wrong though and i was re alan partridge so. maybe too early to tell either way skinsssssss brooooooooo
James West
2024-04-11 16:54:29 +0000 UTCJust finished watching - I think you'll be OK as it goes on KB, and you pick up the accent a bit more. There is a LOT of specific references in this though to either very Northern things, or things very specific to British TV nostalgia that we're gonna have to help you with at some points. Yes, that's Jeff from Peep Show - Neil Fitzmaurice, who co-wrote this with Peter Kay along with Dave Spikey, who plays Jerry.
Phil Robinson
2024-04-11 16:52:07 +0000 UTC"Protect your colon guys." Don't make it sound like a threat!
Z is for Zed
2024-04-11 16:51:19 +0000 UTCPeter's a great standup but I always found his sitcoms to be a tad overrated. (With the exception of Car Share, that one clicked with me a lot more!)
David Lyons
2024-04-11 16:44:32 +0000 UTCAppreciate you sticking through this first episode KB. Phoenix Nights is a tough sell considering a lot of it is based on cheesy Northern working man's club culture. Also, the accents can be difficult even for many Brits to pick up on, let alone anyone outside of the UK. I'd consider this show to have the Only Fools & Red Dwarf slow burn syndrome, as it takes a couple of episodes to kick in. It really does pick up though, although I wouldn't blame you if much of the comedy goes over your head.
Jay
2024-04-11 16:44:09 +0000 UTCI love Phoenix Nights, because it's so relatable. Not sure this will connect with a guy from Florida though. Hope I'm wrong.
Johnny87
2024-04-11 16:40:46 +0000 UTCThe audience of elderly people in the club had no idea most of the time what was going on. They aren't actors. Also at the end of each show they have funny auditions of acts to appear in the Phoenix club. These were real acts
Yaapsdad
2024-04-11 16:40:41 +0000 UTCPeter Kay also plays the bouncer with the neck brace. The other bouncer is his great friend Paddy McGuinness. Later they made a spin off series about the two bouncers called Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere. Peter Kay is also one of the top stand up comedians in Britain. Most of the other main characters are played by stand ups too
Yaapsdad
2024-04-11 16:37:21 +0000 UTC1st episode is the worst one, it gets way better

2024-04-11 16:36:03 +0000 UTCThere is only 2 series and they're gold, don't worry about this going the way of Benidorm. It will be interesting to see how a very northern show is viewed from an american. all i can say is stick with it through opening episodes as you get to know the characters

2024-04-11 16:34:50 +0000 UTCYes definitely keep going with this. If you look carefully at Max, you might recognise him as well 😉
Sam Evans
2024-04-11 16:34:15 +0000 UTCTotally agree regarding Car Share - I'd say that's easily his best work.

2024-04-11 16:33:16 +0000 UTCThis is a good series but I do think alot of this comedy will gonover your head. Its very uk based
Simon Westerman
2024-04-11 16:33:03 +0000 UTCGreat that you noticed Jeff from Peep Show 😅 There are some really funny episodes on here. Not sure if you noticed but the bouncer Max, is also Peter Key. I say that because people don’t always notice first time! Great reaction KB! Can’t wait for more! 😁

Steven Sjosten
2024-04-11 16:16:09 +0000 UTCInteresting choice! There is something very endearing about Peter Kay (I think his 'Car Share' series tops this one). I'm curious to see how an American will respond to working class northern humour. I think even more so than Partridge there'll be a lot of references that will mean little to you, but it shouldn't affect your overall enjoyment of the show.
Tim Mountford
2024-04-11 16:16:00 +0000 UTCYesssss. What a great show. Can't wait for your reactions to this
Aaron Close

Philip Tomlinson
