Top of the Tower was good, it's a classic in fact, but Live at the Bolton Albert Halls is something special. It is in my top stand-up shows of all time with its relatable stories and signature jokes. Filmed 3 years after his first tour, Peter Kay returned with a bigger reputation, bigger venue and even bigger jokes! His style may not have changed but his all-round performance as a comedian is much improved on an already sterling show 3 years earlier.Again, his jokes are consistently relatable. He tells us stories which literally have us linking ourselves to over and over again. He really is naturally funny and it seems effortless to him the way he reels off story after story. This tour is my favourite of Peter Kay's and I still re- watch it every now and then.9/10

I love the Bolton comedian and I have seen some of his live stand-up comedy stuff before, this particular one was made around the time he was successful with his sitcom Phoenix Nights. Peter Kay here plays to an audience at the Albert Hall, in his home town, including his mother and grandmother, plus Coronation Street stars Sally Lindsay (who she starred in an episode with) and Jennifer James amongst them. His material is always stuff you can relate to, he talks about his observations on many things that sound familiar to you, including his experiences with his mother and grandmother, classic jokes analysed, taxi drivers, old people, home entertainment, television - specifically Crimewatch, shopping, silly sayings, and much more. Also starring, the opening and closing sequences, Amer Nazir as taxi driver Mr. B. Peter Kay was number 22 on The Comedians' Comedian, he was number 12 on TV's 50 Greatest Stars, he was number 7 on Britain's Favourite Comedian, and he was number 2 on 100 Greatest Stand-Ups. Very good!

I saw this guy for the first time on the DVD "Live At Bolton", and would now rank him in the top three comedians I have ever heard in my life! Everything about his show was funny and uplifting, From his running for a bus to, well....I won't spoil the surprises, I swear he will have you and your whole family in Knots. A truly naturally funny man in every sense. He also does some superb impersonations including Jim Bowen(presented bullsh1t....no bullseye) and a very good one of a typical drunk uncle at a party. Another notable talent he has is that he hardly swears during his show. I say notable because a lot of comedians use swearing as a driving force for their comedy but this guy doesn't need to. There are only a few other British comedians out there that can touch this guy, one of them being The Big Yin himself, Billy Connolly and Lee Evans being the other one and I think with his upbeat personality and well timed wit he will go far! Out of 10.... 9.5, Superb!

Only kidding of course!!! What can you say about this show, apart from it's brilliant. The 'Blackpool Tower' show was a good gig, still is in fact, but this one is in a different league. He's definitely the most naturally funny man on the planet. It's not so much what he says, it's the way he says it. His observations of life, his delivery, his funny shape ,with that northern wit and Bolton accent combine to great effect. To be honest i don't want to see this vd again for about another year or so, because i've seen it so many times, but i still laugh hard at it. The tour was a virtual sell-out, so he must have made enough money to 'buy his mum a bungalow' by now!!
