Peter Kay made a triumphant return to stage on the opening night of his first live comedy tour in 12 years.
The comedian received a rapturous standing ovation which lasted several minutes, with audiences chanting his name at Manchester Arena on Friday.
The live tour marks Peter's return to stand-up comedy after being largely absent from the public eye for the last four years after he cancelled his last tour in December 2017, citing "unforeseen family circumstances".
