Peter Kay
With his public profile raised, Kay co-wrote and starred in the Channel 4 mockumentary series That Peter Kay Thing (2000). This resulted in a spin-off sitcom, Peter Kay's Phoenix Nights (2001–2002) in turn generated another spin-off, Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere (2004). In 2005, he recorded a promotional video in which he mimed to Tony Christie's 1971 hit "(Is This the Way to) Amarillo", which was reissued to raise money for Comic Relief: the song reached number 1 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming that year's best-selling single in the UK.
Kay co-wrote and starred in Britain's Got the Pop Factor... and Possibly a New Celebrity Jesus Christ Soapstar Superstar Strictly on Ice (2008), a parody of several British reality television shows. As the series' fictional protagonist Geraldine McQueen, he released the single "The Winner's Song", which reached number 2 on the UK Singles Chart. His 2010–2011 stand-up comedy tour was recorded in the Guinness World Records as the most successful ever, selling over 1.2 million tickets. He starred in the BBC sitcoms Peter Kay's Car Share (2015–2018) and Cradle to Grave (2015). Kay provided the voice of police constable (later chief inspector) Albert Mackintosh in two feature-length films of the Wallace & Gromit franchise, The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005) and Vengeance Most Fowl (2024).
In 2016, Kay won the BAFTA TV Award for Best Male Comedy Performance, the BAFTA TV Award for Best Scripted Comedy and the National Television Award for Best Comedy for Car Share. He also received an honorary doctorate from the University of Salford.
