    Have always enjoyed 'Phoenix Nights' and saw most episodes on it while it was on TV.

    I think Peter Kay is an absolute genius... his live shows are hilarious and the writing in this (co-wrote with Dave Spikey [Jerry St.Clair] and Neil Fitzmaurice [Ray Von]) makes it, in my opinion, one of the funniest British comedies (though 'The Office' is also a big favourite of mine) in years!

    I bought the DVD boxset of the first two series last week and realised how much of an amazing show it is!

    I think it was a shame it was on air around the same time as 'The Office' as it somewhat overshadowed it!

    Heard that the spin-off "Road To Nowhere" starring Max & Paddy will be on Channel 4 from November. Cannot wait!

    To tie us all over, share your views of the show and / or favourite 'Phoenix Nights' lines (or dialogue) here!...

    EDIT: Here's a good few to get us started!..

    [Dougie Hayes has delivered a giant inflatable penis..]
    Dougie Hayes: Well what do you think?
    Brian Potter: It's not a bouncy castle.
    Dougie Hayes: You never said a castle.
    Brian Potter: I said I wanted an inflatable.
    Dougie Hayes: It is an inflatable.
    Brian Potter: Inflatable filth.
    Jerry St Clair: We're not having that.
    Brian Potter: You're damn right Jerry, we're not having that go on take it back.
    Dougie Hayes: But Brian...
    Brian Potter: It's a family fun day man, there's kiddies running around. They can't go jumping up and down on a love length.
    Young Kenny: Can't we disguise it?
    Brian Potter: Yeah we can, we'll put a wooly hat on it and say it's you.
    Dougie Hayes: It's not what it looks Brian.
    Brian Potter: Not what it looks. Not what it looks. It's a twenty-foot cock and balls man. It don't look like nothing else, it's not happening.

    Young Kenny: Its a theme pub
    Brian: What theme? Hiroshima? Old sh*te?

    Brian to Jerry: You're a bloody hypodermic.

    Brian to Jerry: Go on Jerry, live the dream. Pretend you're dying.

    Also, the pissed-up dwarves on the stag night kicking lumps out of Paddy and Max, quality.

    Paddy telling Max about the prostitutes in Amsterdam:

    Paddy - "She made me wash me old man in the sink"
    Max - "you brought your dad?!"

    then the midgets arrive

    Max (squinting into the distance) - "How far away are they?"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,213 ✭✭✭✭therecklessone


    Watched the 5th episode from Series 2 (the one where Max and Paddy are supposed to do some freelance security work killing a club punter's husband for her) today, still laughing at some of these...

    Paddy: What's the crack here anyhow?
    Max: She's in there with him now, they're gonna have a meal. She's gonna get him pissed then drive out into t'sticks for a shag. That's when we take over.
    Paddy: I'm not shagging him, not for a grand.
    Max: Not shag him, shoot him ya prick.

    Brian: It just came to me...in a flash, like St. Paul on the road to Domestos

    Brian: They better shape up or sh*t out

    Max: That's my grandads (pointing at gun), he killed a German with it
    Paddy: What, during t'war?
    Max: No, in Benidorm. They had a fight over a sunlounger.

    Brian: I'm trapped on the stairs, kick the door down.
    Jerry: What, with my back?
    Brian: No, with your leg ya tool.

    :D

    Solid Gold.

    Kenny Senior is dressed up as Britney Spears after the show they had to put on for Mark Brennen from Brewery.


    Alan: So we managed to fool the brewary then.

    Potter: Did we balls. They knew what we were up to straight away, but they loved us. Mark Brennen wanted Britney's number.

    Kenny Senior: Why, did he want to book me?

    Potter: Well, it sounded like book, close yer legs ye little stut.
