The hotly anticipated stage show was dubbed the “most successful stand-up runs in British comedy history“.
However the funnyman – famed for his ‘garlic bread’ catchphrase – has been hit with a string of scandals on his latest run of shows.
The comic hit the headlines after he likened a heckler to bubbly Emmerdale actress Lisa Riley.
He then went on to savagely suggest that she’d had too much to drink.

After instructing security to remove the woman, he said: “Have a drink, have we?
“Go on, off you go Lisa Riley.”
Lisa is now nine years sober after admitting to drinking two bottles of wine a night.
The soap star previously confessed she “drowned her feelings in alcohol” following her mother’s death.
Weeks later, Kay threatened to set security on rowdy fans at his London O2 performance.
And in another dig at fans, he brutally booted a heckler out of his show for shouting “garlic bread”.
Elsewhere, comedy king Kay was forced to postpone two shows after having surgery for his kidney stones.
The Phenix Nights star takes to the stage on Saturday 4 April and tickets go on sale this Saturday.
Debbie McWilliams, Chief Commercial Officer at the Scottish Event Campus hailed the comic’s stage return.
She said: “We are delighted to welcome Peter Kay back to the OVO Hydro for what promises to be a run of fantastic shows, including two dates in April 2026.
