Even club compere Jerry St Clair is reduced to singing Come get your black bin bags to the tune of Men in Black in the local supermarket. But not even being barred from having a licence for the rest of his natural life can deter the northern Svengali from reopening the club and making it bigger and better than before--even if that means making Jerry the licensee and offering up-market Chinese nosh. This second instalment of Peter Kay's cult sit-com is more upbeat than the first with some genuine success coming to the characters and club but it still has its hilariously subversive undertones: a botched hit job; an inflatable castle with an extra appendage; and Brian stuck on his stair lift for a day after a power cut to take just three examples. The script remains brilliantly surreal and incredibly funny. All the favourite characters remain with club bouncers Paddy and Max featuring in a couple of the meatier storylines (perhaps setting them up for their own spin-off series?) and Jerry continuing to wow the crowds with his original vocal stylings the highlight being the grand Stars in Their Eyes final in which he offers his own unique clubland take on Eminem. It's brilliantly original stuff: roll on Series 3. --Kristen Bowditch REVIEW A comic jewel glittering in the TV schedules a new classic in the making -- The Daily ExpressShowbusiness will never be the same again! -- Heat See more
