The Grand Reopening Of The Phoenix | Peter Kay's Phoenix Nights

Episode 1: It is the opening day of Brian Potter's new club, the Phoenix (two of his previous clubs having burned down while another flooded). With "TV's own Roy Walker" opening the club, Brian wants everything to be perfect. But he has to contend with a power cut that leaves the club in the dark, the theft of the bingo machine, a German-speaking "Das Boot" arcade machine, Max the doorman injuring himself and a racist folk band called "Half A Shilling" (with the lead singer played by Tim Healy). The band are ostensibly singing about Holy Communion Shoes, although journalist Deborah Quinn detects the racist metaphor in the song entitled "Send The Buggers Back". These factors soon ruin everything. The auditioning act at the end of the episode is a pair of spacemen, one on a spinning disc, miming to a David Bowie song.

Brian Potter's dream is to own a popular club. But with two failed clubs to his name - The Aquarius and The Neptune both burned down - he's hoping the third time will be the charm. The Phoenix Club is his new baby, and he is determined to make it the most popular establishment in Bolton. And outdoing his nemesis, Den Perry, owner of the popular Banana Grove, is an added benefit to his plan.
