🎶 Heavy duty black bin bags,
🎵 No matter what your gender.
🎶 Heavy duty black bin bags,
🎵 Whether bi or straight or bender.
Got to be some of the greatest song lyrics ever!
That tune will randomly pop into my head, especially when I walk into Asda.
I don't know how I heard that in my mind- haven't watched it for years1
Massive earworm!
Just rip with me, just rip me, just rip with me reet now… fill em up now!! ❤️
🎼 Its Corned Beef, wi' chips or wi' salad, its Corned Beef, even Buckingham Palace eats Corned Beef, 🎶why dont you try Corned Beef Haaaaaaasshhhh!🎵
The wigs are worn in Crown Court, Magistrates court is a lesser court.
And the main wig is worn by Jim Bowen.
True, in Magistrates court they only wear hair extensions
Yep the difference between magistrate and crown Court is you can only get up to 6 months in magistrate court, but you could get 5 years for the same offense, I. E. Violent offences for example
True and crown court is in front of a jury.
Very droll!😂@@tlv8555
"some queer's burned my club down" is such an underrated line 😂
One of my favourites from the whole show.
“In memory of Alan” was a nod to a character killed by a tram on a UK soap called coronation street
Thanks for that. I was racking my brain trying to think back through episodes for the unfortunate Alan
The tram used in Corrie is called “The Killer Tram” by the tram drivers, I know this because my Aunt had a guesthouse called “The Cheshire” and my uncle was a tram driver.
Alan Bradley, "died" December 1989. Coronation Street has been running for 11,290 episodes since December 1960.
Beat me to it 😊 Even the date is spot on.
Ironside was a US cop show from the 60s/70s, where the main character, Chief Robert Ironside, was in a wheelchair.
Theme tune was amazing
@@errbud Yeah, it's awesome! It's been sampled a bunch of times.
"Chuck Norris wants what? Woodchip?"
Best line ever 😂
He's in a magistrate's court, wigs are usually crown court...big cases
Bob Carolgees and Spit the Dog !! 😂😂😂
That's right, back in 87 when I was, at school in Waterloo and I bunker off one day with my pals and sneaked into the London Weekend Television Studios I. E. LWT studios, we see a pilot with Bob and spit the dog called animal crackers, but I never see it on the box, good laugh though
I'd forgotten all about them!
The look of total mystification on KB’s face!!!
Pob spat more than spit
That’s the Bob o couldn’t remember. Much more entertaining than the twat with the ostrich or the gay green budgie in a nappy.
Ironsides was one of the great jokes missed in Series 1. Named after the famous fictional detective
Not one for the kids is it 😂
Yeah, AMERICAN fictional detective, in a wheelchair🫣😂
I was thinking that and it really wasn't missed. I'm surprised an American missed it and the theme to black beauty.
Rip Alan is acceptable to miss if you're American but Ironside a famous American series isn't.
"he was just about to get to the vinegar strokes....... can I call you back mum" :o)
I've seen this so many times - lived on the show at uni, and that's the first time I've picked up on that line! Hahahaha
Spit the dog 😂
Bob Carolgees and Spit the Dog, aah the memories of 70's tv! 😂😂
He always randomly popped up on Surprise Surprise too!
It'll always be Tiswas for me!
There's a bunch of references that will go over K Boomer's head.
Wigs aren't worn in magistrates court.
Kenny Dalgliesh was a foot ball player.
We saw 70's/80's childrens TV stars Bob Carolgees and Spit the Dog.
Brian's entry music was the theme to 70's TV series Black Beauty, about a girl and her hero horse.
Ironside was a 60's/70's crime series where our eponymous detective is in a wheelchair.
The chippy/Ponderosa guy is 80's quiz show host Jim Bowen.
The flowers on the lamppost are in memory of Alan from the TV series Coronation Street who was hit by a tram in Blackpool.
Thanks I didn't get that. Never seen Coronation St
@@pj5517 Coronation Street has been running on UK TV since 1960. I've not had a TV for 30 years so I'm badly out of date on most stuff. I picked that one up from other comments here and it seemed worth adding to the list.
Jim Bowen with the wig. Used to host the legendary darts- based game show 'Bullseye' 👍👍👍
And it was revived with "Jerry saint Clare" as it's host in 2006
Can't beat a bit of bully!
The receptionist on the blower relating every grisly detail of a failed one night stand.... to her mother!😅 This show ought to have come with complimentary incontinence pads, I laughed so hard!
Maybe some explanation of the term 'vinegar strokes' may be needed?💈
The dog puppet ( Spit the dog ) was a Kids TV entertainer and the simple gimmick being that whenever Bob ( the man ) was talking to someone, the dog would spit in their face. That was a thing for probably 10 years heheh.
They really went through the ranks, from kids TV to a serious talk show 😅
@@dontalkt2meboutheros A Ventriloquist who's puppet was silent...
Bob and Spit appeared in an episode of 'That Peter Kay Thing' which where the pilot episode for Phoenix Nights came from.
This is a local comedy for local people...we'll have no trouble here.
We didn't burn him
@@Galphs we didn't burn the club down
He'll find the Inflatable funny🤔probably😂🫣Peter Kay is a Legend 🤣
The muppet with the wig is the legend who is Jim Bowen (RIP)
Jim hosted the darts games show Bullseye which was famous for its strange prizes, including a speedboat and a set of garden furniture won by someone who lived in a block of flats. And if you missed out on the big prize, they would show you "what you could have won".
hard to think its 6 years since he died
He made jetski ownership a reality for the man in the street
If Bullseye is on whilst channel hopping there is no choice but to watch. It is the law, after all we all want to see people who have never been to the coast win a jet ski or a tiny speedboat on a trailer. Classic TV from a far better time.
Last vinger stroke was my favourite line
The next episode with the inflatable is a classic
'It's inflatable filth, that's what it is. When Brian then describes it as a love length, I'm pretty sure it wasn't scripted. You can tell because the other cast members genuinely crack up.
If no one has said it before. The flowerss are in memory of Alan Bradley who was pulverised when he ran into an oncoming Blackpool tram when he tried to drag Rita Fairclough back into the car ! From the worlds' longest running Soap Opera 'Coronation Street' ... which by the way Peter Carr did once make a gust appearance in.
think you mean Peter Kay..!
Bob Carolgees and Spit the dog. My 1970's childhood 😂😂😊
Wigs are worn in a Crown Court. This was a Magistrates Court.
That meat truck was a regular on Farnworth market near where they filmed. BSE day lol. BSE was mad cow disease.
Max and paddy's road to nowhere you need to watch that 😂
It sucks. Really dumbed down humour.
@@bradders9743no one asked you
Kinda true though. Mcguiness ruins it
Jim Bowen. A true legend. 'it'll take me the duration of the break to count this fourty pounds'.
"Some queer's burnt me club down" I always laugh at this so funny
The muppet in the wig is Jim Bowen, a legend of British TV. He had a very famous crap TV show called Bullseye. Everyone loved it. It was a game show based around the game of Darts.
Ah yes, the lad from Wolverhampton who won a speed boat...
You can’t beat a bit of Bully !
The best Crap TV show in history. Can't beat a bit of Bully!
Let's see what they could of won
That was Super Smashing Greeeeat!
Yes the club is still there, it’s called st Greg’s. It’s in my town farnworth just outside of Bolton.
Your in for a treat with this series
The guy who plays Den Perry is Ted Robbins. He's Paul McCartney's first cousin once removed, in real life
And the uncle of Emily Atack, aka Charlotte from the Inbetweeners!
He was also the warm up act for Only Fools and Horses Studio Filming.
@detonator82 So she's Paul's first cousin, twice removed
And that was his wife at the end too
15:08 JIM BOWEN!!! You can't beat a bit of bully.
They only wear wigs in the Crown Court, this was a magistrates court.
Not saying that the pub by mine is working class but honestly, someone won the Karaoke by singing the theme from Minder only a couple of years back
And so they should 🤣 great show/song 👍🏻👌🏻
@@harrynelson9203 Beat me to it
@@mattsmith5421 🤣👍🏻
“Frank Cartwright” was played by an English stand up comedian called Jim Bowen, more famous for his show Bullseye. He appeared in a programme called “the big country quest” which was filmed where I worked. Whilst he was sitting in his Rolls Royce (Chauffeur driven 🤣) he asked me to pinch one of the signs for him, which I did, when I gave it to him he actually said “great, super”. His catchphrase was actually “great, super, smashing” 😁.
Den perry is Charlotte big jugs from the Inbetweeners uncle!
Don't forget Paddy's can of hair spray is buried beneath the paper towels too when he throws it in there when Mary walks in.
good point yeah!
Also he had been warned about the smoke alarm sprinkler system not working by that safety warden guy, but he intentionally ignored it to save a little money.
@@NeverStopRolling Yeah all clever little bits we can miss later on.
The two in the van were singing the theme to Minder. The lead was Denis Waterman, who also sung the theme song. An awesome british show from the 80s about a con man and his bodyguard, or Minder. Also Ironside was a detective show with the main character being in a wheelchair.
Ironside was a wheelchair bound TV cop from the seventies, it was a US show.
Barely a month goes by without the black bin bags song running through my head. And the corn beef song of course.
I don't live too far from the residence of the comedy legend himself! A very humble being! He was sighted in a car scene on my private neighbourhood road with Paddy once! 😁
The next episode I guarantee you're going to be getting those Inbetweeners uncontrollable laughs. One of my favourites is episode 2.
I appreciate you watching this. It really is very northwest humour, and full of hidden jokes and references, so the fact you are able to enjoy it anyway is a testament to the writing.
Black bin bags is my ringtone - and has been since I can remember. LOVE IT!
Corned Beef hash was not a drugs reference.
It's traditionally a dish that used leftovers, it's meat in this case corned beef, with chopped potatoes and onions, the term Hash comes from the French Hacher which means to chop.
It's delicious.
Love some hash
I mean weed
I’ve had about 20 different variations of this in my life at least . No one cooks it the same 😂way
@@stecaton1541 I think most countries have a variation. I remember corned beef hash as a kid as my grandparents, but I now live in Sweden and we have a similar dish called Pytt i panna which is basically small pieces in a pan. You can even buy it frozen, cooked in the oven with fried eggs on top.
Glad you stuck with it, the best comedy from the North West. You should try 'Auf Wiedersehen Pet', the best comedy from the North East, my neck of the woods.
First 3 series were great but went downhill after
Too many days spent smoking on them court steps waiting for my case😂
“Come and get your black bin bags!”😂
(From the DVD Commentary) Originally they wanted to use 'Call Me' by Blondie for the Corned Beef song, but they couldn't get the rights.
@6:00.
It depends on the court. In the lower courts, no, they don't wear wigs. The court that features in this episode is a Magistrates Court. It is the lowest level of criminal court and is generally for things like speeding tickets, and low level crime like a first time theft or something like that. The "judge" at a Magistrates court is called "a Magistrate". He is often a volunteer from the community. The Magistrates Court will also hear the more serious cases such as murder, but only to basically say "this is too big for us, so we're sending it to the Crown Court".
It's the Crown Court where you have the judges, juries and barristers. It's the Crown Court where you see the wigs.
Hi Boomer! Medals are normally worn on the left side, but you can wear a deceased relative's medals on your right side. So he trying to make out that his dad fought in WWII!
The song that Max and Paddy are singing along to is 'I Could be so Good for You ' by Dennis Waterman which was the theme to an 80s show called Minder.
“Let’s have a look at what you could have won!” 😂 #RIP the Bowen
Spit the dog... Legend of Tiswas 😮
" ... with a nick nack paddywack, give a dog a pie, watch it sailing through the sky" 🙂
The theme music Brian comes into the club to is the theme from Black Beauty a UK TV show from the 70s in the style of Lassie or Skippy the Bush Kangaroo
I wonder if theres 20 or so comments pointing out the difference between a crown court and a magistrates court, because everyone wants to be a smart-arse, without checking if anyone else made the same point?
No-one ever reads the comments.
Can't beat the discount meat man's tricks, you go for a pack of £1.50 sausages and come away with a £10 half a carrier bag of funny cuts of meats - and something for the dog too.
The dog puppet was known as spit the dog.and was a popular child entertainment from the 80ts till late 90s
"it's BSE day - BSE being the acronym for mad cow's disease!
11:05 Whether bi or straight or bender 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Fill em up now
Been waiting for another phoenix reaction
So looking forward to this !
Please do "two pints of lager and a packet of crisps" & "malcolm tucker ( peter capaldi) swearing"
This show is genius because it hooks you in. 😂😂
The black bin bags in asda is a all time classic moment for me
the black bin bags song used to everyone's ring tone when this episode came out haha
The guy with the wig was a host of a game show to do with darts called bullseye in the 80s.
Gotta love Kenny Senior as the compulsive liar 😄
Spit the Dog being interviewed by Michael Aspel might be worth a reaction.
The guy in the wig is Jim Bowen
A comedian that did a quiz show called bullseye
Its quite a cult show - one contestant was an actual serial killer, check Wikipedia 😮
Civil and criminal court, wigs or not. After this you should try Max & Perry's Road to Nowhere
Thin sliced corned beef on plate covered in hot beans nothing better
Don't forget outtakes after this series and then max and paddy boooom
Ironside was an American Cop Show with Raymond Burr, in a wheelchair, called Ironside, hence the reference to Brian.
I think I know what that "In Memory of Alan" is a reference to. There was a villain in Coronation Street called Alan Bradley, and he was killed by a tram at Blackpool. I think the date was the time the episode screened. Just guessing here.
I went to Dave Spikeys (Jerry st clair) live show in Southport and he didn't mention Phoenix nights till near the end when he had all the audience singing the Black Bin Bags song.
I don't know if you've already watched 'The Royle Family', but if not you should. Mrs Boomer would probably enjoy too.
That my friend was Spit the Dog and his owner Bob Carolgees, they were a very famous double act in the 80`s lol I miss spit.
After you've finished watching all of Phoenix nights, you HAVE to watch "Max and Paddy's road to nowhere". It's brilliant, hilarious and definitely worth the watch
lol, King Boomer....'Meet Spit the dog'
If you haven’t already watch the spin off show called Max and Paddy’s road to nowhere, it’s absolutely brilliant and very funny with Peter Kay (who plays Brian) again as one of the main character’s called Max, one of the “knuckle heads” as you called them.😂
One of the funniest scenes in that was when they had a pig in their camper van, RV I think you’d call it, just the phase “how dare you” has me crying laughing 😂😂
I’d LOVE to see your reaction.
So many fab comments already so i do hope i am not repeating anybody else here but i do love the asian elders mini bus sketch with Max and Paddy😂
Glad to see so many people have so many lovely memories of Bullseye 'thats yours you're tekkin it ome' .
Na night all x
8.39..."this twat" hahaha😅😅😅kb, thats fuckin hilarious 😅😅😅
It's a Magistrates court, the Judge is only a part time judge and will have another job. Fun fact: there are no gavels in UK courts so if you see a British judge with one in a tv show or film they have got it wrong. The US adopted gavels from Freemason rituals into public meetings and government chambers and courts.
That's spit the dog a TV character I remember for late 70s didn't realise he was featured on phoenix nights 😂
bob is peters good look charm there's always a reference to him in all things peter kay does if you look hard enough
That red Asian Elders bus was my actual school bus for trips n stuff. I remember messing with some girl on them back seats fun times teacher wasn't amused 😂
Don't think it's been mentioned yet but the sad organ music playing throughout (like at 14:30) is Whitney Houston - Didn't We Almost Have It All
They wear wigs in a crown court, and you are watching a magistrates court.
Watched Phoenix so many times, but every time I see something I missed😮On Blackpool sea-front there were flowers with a note 'RIP Alan'. Genius! Alan was a famous character from the No 1 brit northern soap series 'Coronation Street'-he was killed off in the series by a passing tram on that sea-front in the 1980s😂😂😂 brilliant😍😍🤣
The next one is fantastic. See if you noticed the guy missing in the white van.
14:38 - Alan Bradley, character from UK soap Coronation St who was killed off in the show by being hit and run over by a tram.
The guy singing at The Ponderosa is Robbie Williams father 😂
Ironside. It's a mickey take on the 1970's US detective series 'Ironside'. Played by Raymond Burr, he was a San Franciso Chief of Detectives in a wheelchair! And why not!
The next episode is an absolute belter, I am sure you are going to love it!!!
Saw Bob Carolgees, they guy with the spitting dog in my local pub about 20 years ago. Nice fella.
9:15 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ironside was an American TV show where the main guy was in a wheelchair!
Greetings again from Scotland. Thanks for reviewing this great series. There's certain references that are peculiar to the UK. The flowers on the lamppost in Blackpool and Alan refers to a character in long running soap Coronation Street. The guy he meets at the hotel is Jim Bowen who was host of a long running quiz show called Bullseye. The music Brian comes into is the theme from a tv show about a horse Black Beauty. However, you don't need to know the references to enjoy a brilliant comedy. Enjoy.
Ironside was an American crime drama series from the 60s which had the main detective - Chief Ironside - in a wheelchair.
Stephen Fry's talk on the difference between US and UK comedy is summed up here. US stuff is a wise cracking - aren't we terrific - proposition. Whereas we're all about frailty. I'm not saying one is better than the other but the contrast is stark.
Just what I needed after hearing some terrible news in my family, going to have to get caught up with the previous ones though, but the next ones hilarious to this!
Corned beef 79p! 😭
Now £3 😢😢😢
