The Bolton Comedian Peter Kay has broken his social media silence to tell his three quarter of a million followers on twitter that he had nothing to do with a documentary due to air on Channel Five
Very flattering of Channel 5 to commission the programme going out tonight, but just to let people known that ‘Peter Kay: In His Own Words’ has an incredibly misleading title, as it doesn’t feature any new interviews with Peter and all the footage is completely historic.
He added that:
The title also gives the impression that Peter has been involved in the making of this documentary, which he hasn’t. At all.”
The documentary which aired last night featured interviews with Peter’s friends and colleagues Pete Waterman, Jenny Powell and Bobby Davro and charts the comic’s rise to fame to performing arena shows and featured clips from his car share series.
The last tweet Peter Kay shared was back in October 11 2019 as he promoted tickets for Phoenix Nights at the cinema in Blackpool to help raise money for Cancer Research UK.
Back December 2017, Peter cancelled all of his upcoming work commitments due to “unforseen family circumstances”.
