- The_Phoenix_Club abstract "The Phoenix Club is a fictional working men's club in Farnworth near Bolton, and is the centerpiece of the acclaimed UK sitcom Phoenix Nights.The Phoenix Club is home to entertainment of all types, including Bingo, singing, cabaret and a wide range of themed nights. The club was created and is run by Brian Potter along with his staff.The club has a number of workers, all with their own part to it.The club follows the layout of a typical working men's club, with a large cabaret room along with a lounge area (called 'The Pennine Suite' in the opening series). In an attempt to diversify and attract more customers, the lounge is later converted into a successful Chinese restaurant. There is also a games room in the club, that was named, The "Jocky Wilson Suite" in the first series, and the "Tony Knowles Suite" in the second. In the first series the room was shown as a home to the games supplied by "Dodgy Eric" such as the wonky snooker table, the bucking bronco and the child's aeroplane ride. In the second series, the games room is used more as lounge and general social area with dining tables, although there is a dart board and a new snooker table. The solarium is also just off through a door from this room. The Pennine suit served as a general large lounge and social area in the first series but was seldom seen in the second series; it contains a small stage which was used for Wednesday free and easy nights. Eventually it was replaced by a brand new Chinese restaurant. The other room in the club is a larger cabaret style room which plays host to larger features such as Talent Treck and Stars in their eyes.Throughout the two series of Phoenix Nights, an ongoing theme of the show is the rivalry between The Phoenix Club, and local rival club 'The Banana Grove', run by the flamboyant Den Perry. Brian Potter will devise ideas for the club to attract more customers, usually to the disapproval of Jerry St.Clair. However, as more people come to the club, the more popular the club becomes than its rivals, but this is at the expense of Brian Potter's thrifty ways, cutting corners in the running of the club wherever possible.The second series follows on from the first. Following the staging of the highly regarded local talent contest 'Talent Trek' a vengeful Den Perry burns the club down. With the authorities taking a dim view of Potter's poor attitude towards fire and suspend his licence. Potter then rebuilds the club on the cheap, but with Jerry St. Clair as the licencee. The club bounces back and regains its popularity, with schemes such as placing a fake speed camera outside of the club to slow motorists down, and a re-enactment of the club's arson on TV show 'Crimetime' (a parody of Crimewatch) in order to gain free advertising.Eventually, Den Perry unwittingly reveals to most of the local clientele that he burned down the Phoenix Club, and the club is victorious.".
