Peter Kay Achievements - (2000 - 2006)

Peter Kay appeared at various other clubs such as London's influential Comedy Store and the Barracuda Club in Lincoln. Although this led to a certain level of public recognition, it was only after his heavily-promoted show Live at the Top of the Tower in 2000 that Peter Kay attained mainstream recognition. During this period, he appeared on several chat shows, such as Parkinson and Friday Night with Jonathan Ross, where Peter Kay previously been a warm up man. Production also began on Phoenix Nights, which was to see him achieve critical acclaim as well as mainstream success.

In 2003, Peter Kay was listed in The Observer as one of the 50 Funniest British Comedians and also edited one page of Nuts magazine. In addition, he made an appearance in a 2005 poll of comedians and critics to find The Comedians' Comedian, a search for the 50 greatest funnymen of all time. In March 2005 Peter Kay also came top in a survey sponsored by the Jongleurs comedy club chain to find Britain's favorite comedian.

In 2004, Peter Kay caused controversy with a joke about murdered television presenter Jill Dando. The Sun newspaper covered the story on its front page, labeling Kay as a "sick comic".

In 2006, a Channel 4 television show 100 Greatest Funny Moments voted Peter Kay at the Number 1 spot, most notably for his stand-up act, Mum Wants a Bungalow tour at the Bolton Albert Halls, including his description of a family wedding and Bullseye.

On 17 April 2006, Channel 4 broadcast a "Peter Kay Night", showing out-takes from Phoenix Nights (previously featured on DVD), a behind-the-scenes documentary of the Mum Wants a Bungalow tour and also the whole Peter Kay Live in Manchester show.

Channel 4 repeated the "Peter Kay Night" on 25 March 2007 and again on 12 October 2008 which included Peter's new show Peter Kay's "Britain's Got the Pop Factor..." and "Possibly a New Celebrity Jesus Christ Soapstar Superstar Strictly on Ice".
