Peter Kay fans fuming over 'bell*nds' spoiling his first stand-up tour in 12 years

Peter Kay fans fuming over 'bell*nds' spoiling his first stand-up tour in 12 years

People are flooding to social media in fury after seeing Peter Kay's first stand-up tour in years being 'spoiled' online.

People are flooding to social media in fury after seeing Peter Kay's first stand-up tour in years being 'spoiled' online.

There's nothing worse than being an episode behind of your favourite television programme to then accidentally see a tweet which has just revealed that so-and-so got killed off in a shocking turn of events, or yes, that person did hook up with that other character.

You see one single post and it's game over, day ruined, you may as well give up on watching the series altogether.

Now imagine you've saved up to buy a ticket to go and see your favourite comedian who's returning to the stage after a whopping 12 years, only to have half of his sketch revealed online before you've even made it to the performance.

Peter Kay announced he would be hosting his first stand-up tour in 12 years in November earlier this year.

From the tour's website immediately crashing and also allegedly being kicked off Ticketmaster after waiting for hours in the queue, Kay's tour has already caused quite the stir.

However, it was all worth it when the comedian took to the stage after over a decade on Friday (2 December) at the AO Arena in Manchester.

Kay himself even burst into tears, overwhelmed by fans' raucous applause, elated at being back on stage again.

Alas, while some fans were lucky to get to go to the first of 110 arena dates to see Kay, others were left fuming over videos posted to social media revealing parts of Kay's sketch and 'spoil[ing]' the show for those still yet to go - even after Kay apparently pleaded with fans not to record the gig.

Kay reportedly asked audience members to refrain from filming the show.

One fan - who was lucky enough to attend Kay's opening show - took to Twitter, writing: "Peter Kay smashed it tonight. What a return.

"Really, really hope the b*llends filming throughout don’t ruin it and spoil it for others though."

Alas, the 'b*llends' have taken to Twitter with their footage and indeed ruined it for some fans.

"If you filmed Peter Kay tonight and spoil it for people who might be going in months, or years, YOU ARE A B*LLEND! The amount of times he pled with the audience NOT TO FILM! [bell emoji] ends," another Twitter user wrote.

Some attendees of Kay's first show back jumped to Twitter to call out other fans who filmed the show.

A third user said: "It was a privilege to see Peter Kay's return last night. The reception he received knocked him off his feet & he had to take a moment until the tears stopped.

"If you're going to see him, try & avoid any spoilers. He pleaded with people not to film, but the usual twats still did."

A final resolved: "Great, now I have to go nine months dodging Peter Kay spoilers on this stupid bird app.

"People are d*ckheads."
