Review: Peter Kay's Phoenix Nights, Manchester Arena

Due to unfortunate circumstances I am unable to give a star rating to this show; 15 minutes into the second half a cast member collapsed on stage and the performance was cancelled. At the time of posting Ted Robbins, in a stable condition, and we wish him a speedy recovery. I can of course write about what I did see, and much of it was great fun.
