Taking Sides: Mick Hucknell vs Peter Kay

So, say Maggie Philbin makes a record with Mick Hucknell singing on it and that.

Who'd you rather see in the video? Mick? or Peter Kay dressed as Mick being funnie?

So, that'd be two hits with Peter Kay's name on, that has him not playing or singing on them at all?

Damn. Sorry, sun's on my screen, didn't notice I was on the other board.

Errr... I thought this was going to be the most winceworthy game of Bus Stop ever.

He's like the new Phil Spector, innit?

You know the game that you play while waiting for a bus, comparing which of two people you would sleep with if given a choice.

It's probably called other names, too, but that's what Simon LeBon and Nick Rhodes were calling it on the RuPaul show.

xpost or even being in the studio at all (even Andy Warhol managed that!)

nonxpost Oh. Very winceworthy.

Mick Hucknall's Pink Pancakes!

I saw Hucknall in a nightclub toilet in Milan.

was it his own nightclub?

and what was he doing in the Ladies?

― Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 14:36 (twenty years ago)

What he always does in ladies?

Anthony H. Wilson

Anyway, it turns out it's actually Paul Buchannan from the Blue Nile singing.

Sorry for wasting your time/invoking the name of Hucknell.

Why did you think it was Mick Hucknall?

― Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 14:47 (twenty years ago)

because Peter Kay looks like he's impersonating him in the video.

― mark grout (mark grout), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 14:48 (twenty years ago)

well there was that Simply Red song ('Fake') which was full of celebrity lookalikes, inc. a jokey Hucknall clone only fatter and possibly even more heeedeous. Actually it was a cool video (crap song tho obv.).

― Sororah T Massacre (blueski), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 14:50 (twenty years ago)

So Maggie Philbin = Sharleen Spiteri and Mick Hucknall = Peter Kay = Paul Buchanan. And Peter Kay gets his name in the credits just for being in the video? Eh? Am I missing something?

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 15:00 (twenty years ago)

What record would Maggie Philbin actually make though?

― C J (C J), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 15:02 (twenty years ago)

I think it's mark who's missing something - some marbles perhaps?

I need a coffee!

― mark grout (mark grout), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 15:08 (twenty years ago)

It's OK, Mark, I understand you. Sort of.

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 15:11 (twenty years ago)

He was in the gents' and there was a two way mirror through from the ladies' (you could only see the basins/dryers unfortunately). Naturally, we spent some time watching the blokes through the mirror and pointing and laughing. There was one guy who washed his hair and blow-dried it! Others did not wash their hands at all yuk yuk. Then, in walked Hucknall.
