00:00In a statement, Peter Kay told us, the show on Saturday night in Manchester had two hecklers
00:05shouting out from the start. They wouldn't stop. I tried to deal with them. I tried to
00:10ignore them. Eventually I asked the audience around them if they were being disruptive
00:14and they all shouted yes. I also asked for a show of hands. At least 40 people raised
00:20their hands, so I was left with no choice. The lady who was ejected did look remarkably
00:25like Lisa Riley. I don't know how that is an insult. I performed 114 shows on this tour
00:31and they were only the second and third people I've ever had to get ejected. There comes
00:36a point when dealing with repeated hecklers simply isn't enough. It's not something you
00:41ever want to do, but there comes a point where it really isn't fair on the people around
00:46them. Do you think they had the right to throw you out? I feel like what I said was not abusive,
00:52it wasn't aggressive, it wasn't anti-social, I wasn't drunk. I was just standing up chanting
00:57we love you Peter, we do and I feel like it's just been taken a bit overboard and a bit
01:04over the top, his reaction.
