Peter Kay was born and brought up in Bolton, Lancashire. It is clear that Peter Kay has great fondness for his home town of Bolton. A lot of Peter Kay material is based on his experiences growing up in Bolton, either events or characterisations of people from Lancashire.From a young age Peter Kay recalls how he enjoyed making people laugh. All through Peter Kay life, Peter Kay has enjoyed entertaining others, although until Peter Kay made his first breakthrough Peter Kay doubted whether Peter Kay would ever be able to make it into the world of show business. Peter Kay does recall many instances of giving the nuns a hard time through practical jokes. One of Peter Kay earliest comic performances was actually during a school production of “The Wizard of Oz”. Despite Peter Kay’s natural comic talent, for several years after leaving school, Peter Kay worked his way through several part time jobs. All these early experiences gave him material for later tv performances. One of his early DVDs called the “Peter Kay Thing” featured several characters such as “The Oldest Newspaper” boy in Britain.

Dear Mr. Connolly,
I saw your show in San Francisco, and I thought that it was fantastic, except for one part. Your references to my Savior, Jesus Christ.
I know that you probably don't care what one individual thinks, and living in the United States, you can worship whatever individual you like, even yourself, if you so choose (and some do). That's what makes it such a wonderful place.
I will tell you that I was tempted to walk out on your show - that I was that offended. I'm not going to push religion on you, or Christianity, or anything like that. I'm relatively new to this "religion" thing myself. But it is something I feel strongly about.
I think your viewpoint about overall frustration with different religions is very valid. However, there are so many others to attack besides just Jesus. I mean, let's make it fair game here, eh?
I, personally, don't care who or what your worship. You can worship a Blue Barbie Doll or a Silver Bullet Vibrator - I don't care. JUST DO IT PEACEFULLY. That's all I ask.
