Peter Kay: Live at the Top of the Tower

Peter Kay: Live from the Top of the Tower is possibly the greatest stand up show ever. Peter Kay's observational humour is so spot on that your sides will hurt from laughing. Everything from dinner ladies that can smell rain, thus preventing the children from playing out, to finding a holiday on teletext (368 pages to go through until your page comes back around). The stories usually focus around Kay's childhood, growing up in Bolton in the 1980's. His mother, who cleans the house BEFORE going on holiday to the father who won't touch foreign foods when abroad ('Garlic...And bread? Garlic bread?'). Peter Kay explains exactly why people talk with their hands, even the old woman who complains about the heat is there, 'I like it hot but not this hot'.

The characters are familiar to everyone and that's what makes the stand up show so special. We've all met the people Kay talks about. What Peter Kay has done here is present life as we know it, but in such a way that you'll no doubt be crying with laughter with the jokes and characters featured in the show. This show is absolutely spectactular that I would reccomend it to everyone. It is funny without being rude or offensive and that's something which isn't very common in the wacky world of MTV. And remember, as the dinner lady always says; 'It's the fine rain that gets you wet.'

This video is for everyone!!! It is just so funny from the very start! Peter Kay talks about holidays like when you ring home you always ask what is the wheather like at home! He also talks about school dinnerladies! School trips and also booking a hoilday on cefax!! 10/10 Excellent

Peter Kay is Britains most up and coming comic and Live from the Top Of The Tower just proves it. He is well known in Britain for his fantastic Phoenix Nights and John Smiths adverts and this is the first time i have seen him in stand up. In the show he starts of telling jokes which spoils his act a little and the rest of the show he is brilliant with his observational comedy that Eddie Izzard or Billy Connolly would be proud of. He apeals to all ages and is not blue like some comics although a couple of gags were a bit risky. This man is going places. 8 out of 10.

Fantastic. words cannot explain the supreme might of this young(i use that phrase very loosely) comedian. I had to have a liver operation because i laughed so hard, it was without a doubt the greatest comedy dvd i have ever seen(and now own). pure brilliance, this is a must for all you peter kay fans. i have said all i need to say, but, but wait, oh no, oh no oh no oh no.

ITS SPITTING!

This is without doubt one of the best stand up shows ever done in the history of comedy.Everything from people speaking with their hands to "Garlic......Bread" and Rola Cola is just brilliant.Also about when people go on holiday the first thing they do is phone home and your parents cleaning the house so that it is nice and clean for the robbers.

10/10

If you like Peter Kay in Phoenix Nights youll love this.
