I wasn't expecting much from Respectable - and only watched it because Jodi Albert's arse is constantly hanging out - but it surprised me, and actually turned out rather good. 
I didn't watch Swinging because I confused it with Spoons (which was awful) but I'll check it out this week.

Unfortunately, we don't get bloody channel 5 where we are cos there's no room on the damn transmitter for it.
Too be honest, if you ever want to be able to look at her again, without seeing her in lingerie and attached to a giant dildo, its probably best you don't watch it..

Oh you don't need to worry about that, she's one of my best mates, not just my mate's mum.
She's sort of surrogate mum to about five of us who were in her pioneering drama classes at school and all her plays and stuff like that
PS I've seen her worse drunk at New Year.

Lol nice
Send her my best when you see her, she has a growing fan club Cadiva said:
I'm sorry I've dragged up such an old post, but this thread came up when I searched for Beatrice Kelley on the internet.
I think she is fantastic! LOVED her on Phoenix Nights, and have always wondered why she didn't sign up for series 2? Do you know? And also, if you look carefully at the 1st episode of 2nd series, they have deleted her picture from the crew of the phoenix club, and put the new woman in her place!! Which is harsh.
Anyway, there seems to be a lack of appreciation for Beatrice on the internet! She's so funny.
I've managed to get a new thread in the Phoenix Nights forum just for Beatrice. http://peterkayforum.com/index.php?showtopic=4166
Also - what's beatrice doing now?
There's a post up on digital spy forums all about Respectable - majority of viewers on there praise it highly!

It also has a little bit about viewing figures - the 2nd episode got 1.1 million, which ain't bad for channel5 - and that is was a 'grower,' so figures could have been more towards the end?

Why not? It's got a section in for other Phoenix Nights stars too, including Beatrice now (thanks to me - there was NOTHING before!)
Also, Barbara Nice who plays Holy Mary pops in there sometimes.
And no, why would I advertise a phoenix nights forum? I have better things to do thanks. I was just highlighting a thread of appreciation for a wonderful actress!

Well he can't be that 'turd' if he makes people laugh. It's not really any of your business to tell people he's any other than funny. And I'm guessing he's *slightly* more popular than you are. His jokes are certainly more funny than your lame forum posts.

He makes the same people laugh that watch Catherine Tate and Little Britain though, so I wouldn't read too much into that. In my opinion Phoenix Nights series 1 was genuinely quite good, and bits of That Peter Kay Thing weren't bad but everything else has been fairly shite. Max & Paddy was just awful, and he has sold himself out with crap like the Max & Paddy workout DVD, and rushing out his own autobiography just because somebody was creating a biography of him at the time. He just makes easy laughs off of catchphrases and pointless observations now - garlic bread?!/WHO REMEMBERS SPACEHOPPERS?/something about bullseye or something retro that only northerners give a shit about

He was funny at the start of his career then he just does the same thing over and over again. He is in it for the money, end of argument.
It was shocking what he did last Xmas with his stand-up dvd that was out the Xmas before. It was identical just packaged differently, soooooo many people I know took it back and got a refund. That put me off him for life.
