	RobotFist - DVD Review - That Peter Kay Thing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		That Peter Kay Thing populates Bolton (with a side trip to the Manchester Evening News Arena) with ostensibly ordinary people - an aspiring actor who struggles with mindless jobs, a club manager with dreams beyond his abilities, an ice cream pornographer, and so forth - and, well, makes us laugh at them.
		Filmed in a fly-on-the-wall documentary style, TPKT is seven stories of people at the top of their game, at the bottom of the heap, or just on their paper round.
		Peter Kay plays fifteen characters through the course of the series - and while one is always aware of this, the characters are different enough in looks, manner and personality to disguise the fact that you're watching the same man for twenty minutes out of twenty-eight.

	BBC - Comedy - Guide - That Peter Kay Thing
		All of the stories were set in and around Greater Manchester and Kay's characters were an eclectic bunch of northern working men and women, all of whom, to varying degrees, were comic grotesques engaged in mundane and often hopeless occupations, the camera exposing their foibles for all to see.
		Perhaps the funniest part of each show was the trailer for 'next week's episode' (that is, each of the separate episodes was pitched as a segment of an entire series on that particular subject), allowing glimpses of some outrageous goings-on that would never be seen in their totality.
		That Peter Kay Thing was very watchable, its only pitfall being repetition - despite the different premises the characters tended to share certain traits and foibles.

	Film Review: That Peter Kay Thing
		The first thing Peter Kay notes in his commentaries is the inspiration for the title, since no matter what he would have called the show, people would still refer to it as "that Peter Kay thing." It's a nice choice and as brightly concieved as much of the show.
		That Peter Kay Thing is a series of mock documentaries, featuring characters and locations that could be found in just about any village or city in Britain, including bingo halls, social clubs, a road-sweeper and a (hilariously dry) ice-cream man.
		To argue that Kay is frequently drawing this out for his own amusement without thought of the audience would be a valid criticism.

	DVD Times - That Peter Kay Thing
		Dirt cheap programming designed for people who are distracted by the idea of watching people they imagine to be like themselves or caricatures; it's turned modern television into the equivalent of the budgie's mirror.
		Along the way, Peter Kay and his cast appear in a variety of guises each one a lovingly constructed caricature of some person or amalgamation of people encountered in real life.
		This series is a lot stronger than Phoenix Nights, possibly due to the vast range of characters and situations the nature of the series allows by not tieing itself down to one location and set of characters.
