Return of Peter Kay . . . in 2011

Comedian and Phoenix Nights star Peter Kay will perform three shows in Birmingham - but not until 2011.

Tickets costing £35 go on sale on at 11am on Friday for the dates from April 8-10 at the NIA, it was announced today.

The comic recently sold out a record breaking run of 20 nights in Manchester next year with the Peter Kay's Tour That Doesn't Tour Tour.

Kay said: "I have been completely overwhelmed with the demand for tickets."
