    We'd pop there because they stayed open later, had discounted beer and had darts and pool. Often the main room would have been booked put for a wedding or bingo night or similar.

    Phoenix nights is one of my favourite comedy series and I enjoyed the video very much. If you get a chance try the one where the horse mounts the bull machine that people were riding trying to stay on it. The horse drinks someone's beer and all hell breaks loose. Can I also let you know that the security guards (*Max and Paddy) created a new series that was as funny or maybe even better. Hopefully you can include a few of those in future video's. This was the best video I HAVE SEEN IN A LONG TIME, THANKS

      Was it Bolton? I was brought up in Wigan, but my mums from Bolton and my dads from Leigh, my grandparents used to visit their local legion/working man's club (not sure which one or where) in Leigh, it was what their generation did, I wouldn't be surprised if they met there.

    You would think these types of plaxes were on the decline, but no. Quite the opposite. There's literally thousands of places like this the length and breadth of the whole of the UK. I know because we supply them, and I've been members of quite a few.
    Very prevalent in the south too. I've been a member of two in Dagenham when I've lived there. I've visited associated clubs in North Wales. These types of clubs are doing better than pubs and nightclubs. It's Mainly down to two reasons, they are usually within a short walking distance, and you can get cheaper drinks. Quite a lot of them you can still get a pint for under £3. So yes, these places exist more than people think they do. And there is a royal legion in almost every town that serves the ex forces and their families in more ways than just supplying a social club.
    And phoenix nights has gotten the atmosphere in these places down to a 'T'. Even now, 20 years later.
    Also, did anyone notice that it was "Bat out of Hell" playing over the old couple dancing at the end?

    Did I hear a British accent coming through, not bad I thought their was a midget under the table
    And when i said a midget, I meant a British midget, not a Canadian midget trying to impersonate a British midget cos that would be crazy, and when I said midget that is what we used to call people, that today you would know as a
    "mini me, sized person" that's all I've got to describe a midget, or a leprechaun looking type person without the Irish accent or green clothes, or then again they could have a Irish accent, I don't know, its to late to think about this stuff after a couple of pints
