AS the tour continues, Peter has been co-writing his next project with longtime mate Paddy McGuinness, who starred with him in Phoenix Nights.

It will be a spin-off from that show, focusing on Max and Paddy, the two doormen, who Peter feels have a lot more comedic miles in them.

The as yet untitled new series (the latest suggestion is Road to Nowhere), due to start filming in September, will follow the hapless pair's adventures as they tour the country in their motor home.
