Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere | comment |
Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere is Channel 4 Brit Com spun-off from the popular comedy Phoenix Nights that sees former Phoenix Club doormen Max (Peter Kay) and Paddy (Paddy McGuinness) aimlessly travelling around Britain in a motorhome that they bought with the proceeds from faking an assassination and pocketing the cash during the final episodes of Phoenix Nights. | |

Psychopathic Manchild: Apart from being murderously violent, Billy the Butcher spends time engaging in trivial debates with Paddy over correctly guessing the theme tunes to popular TV shows, where Paddy insists on going by Exact Words including the creators as well as the show titles. Apparently, he wasn't much better as an actual child, stabbing his careworker 18 times with a potato peeler for making him play with a jigsaw puzzle that he didn't like. | |

Right Through the Wall: In the first episode, Max and Paddy pull two girls at a nightclub and bring them back to the motorhome. Paddy is steaming drunk and has very loud sex in his bedroom while Max tries to have a drink and a chat with the other girl in the living room. A variant of this happens at the end of the same episode after Max and Paddy finally get some speakers for their TV and Paddy puts on his "Charlie's Anals" DVD. Though Paddy doesn't get very far before the volume wakes Max up. | |

Zany Scheme: Max, Paddy, and Gypsy Joe's plan to steal a plasma TV from a shopping centre. Max and Paddy pose as members of staff, and Joe pretends to faint so an ambulance will be called while Max and Paddy steal the TV from the stockroom. Max and Paddy then dress as paramedics and use the TV under a blanket as a stretcher to get all three out of the building. They carry out a similar robbery at the end of the same episode, except this time the Belgrano Sisters are doing it for them. | |

Disproportionate Retribution | |
Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere / int_50b05d30 | comment |
Disproportionate Retribution: Max and Paddy not paying the (admittedly extortionate) repair bill for their motorhome and instead stealing it back (see MacGyvering), and taking all of the keys to cars the mechanics were working on and tossing them out of the motorhome one by one while driving off seems like this until the reveal that the mechanics didn't do any work on the motorhome yet still tried to charge them £500. A straighter example is the end of Episode Four. Brian has been fronting a very public campaign to get Max and Paddy released from prison which destroys the persona of rich gangsters that they used to live an easy and safe life while inside. As soon as they're released, they call in an anthrax threat at the Phoenix Club on the night of Jerry's 60th birthday party. Although Brian's actions were self-serving in that they helped to promote the Phoenix more than help Max and Paddy, there was no way he could have known that he was putting them in danger. In Max and Paddy’s defence, they did tell Brian that he was going to ruin their chances of freedom, so Brian should have known that that something bad was going come out of this. But then again, there was no way the rest of the Phoenix staff knew about it, assuming Brian kept it to himself and went along with the campaign anyway. The staff, however get punished as well as Brian, at the end of Episode 4. | |

Mistaken for Gay: A Running Gag in the first episode is an African family camped near the motorhome catching Max and Paddy in seemingly compromising positions. The first few while Paddy is teaching Max to dance and pick up women; and the last when they hear an angry rant from Max after Paddy accidentally wakes up him while masturbating. And again when Max and Paddy are meeting up with the Wolfster's friends at his 40th birthday party, thanks to Max's poor wording. | |

Bavarian Fire Drill | |
Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere / int_62fd5552 | comment |
Bavarian Fire Drill: Max and Paddy posing as paramedics as part of their Zany Scheme to steal a plasma TV. Their disguises are far from convincing, their acting is terrible, and their "stretcher" is the stolen TV under a blanket. But by sheer confidence and the perceived urgency of the situation, they manage to pull it off. | |

Heroic Sacrifice | |
Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere / int_6439de78 | comment |
Heroic Sacrifice: Tina is determined to keep the secret that Max is Daniel's father because it will destroy her family, despite that it means Max and Paddy being in prison because her going to the police and corroborating their story will reveal everything. Eventually, she goes to the Police and gets Max and Paddy released at the cost of keeping her secret, as well as finally letting Max meet Daniel after his release. Max in turn makes his own heroic sacrifice by not telling Daniel that he is his father, and letting Tina's family remain intact. | |

The Yardies | |
Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere / int_657bb751 | comment |
The Yardies: Raymond the Bastard is black, a convicted criminal, and speaks with a Jamaican accent, so it's safe to say he qualifies as a Yardie. Ironically, he's also gay, and Jamaica, where the original Yardies started out, is a country with a reputation for homophobia. | |

Prison Rape: Mentioned a number of times by Paddy when he and Max are in prison. They do get cornered by local Depraved Homosexual Raymond the Bastard in the showers, after dropping soap, but he doesn't rape them. He just forces Max to shake his hand. The same hand he's just lathered shampoo onto his groin with. | |

Oh, Crap!: Replace "crap" with "fuck" and you've got Mick Bustin's exact reaction when he sees that Max and Paddy have stolen the keys to all of his clients' cars. Also Max and Paddy in Episode Four when a news report about them, set up by Brian, is seen on one of the prison's TV; blowing their persona of rich gangsters and revealing to Raymond The Bastard that they have been lying to him. In Episode Six, Max and Paddy are being sternly warned about potentially becoming repeat offenders due to associating themselves with Billy the Butcher. However, the police chief admits that they were instrumental in ensuring Billy's arrest, and is willing to let them off. Max suddenly sees CCTV footage of him and Paddy cutting down a speed camera and tossing it into a bush. By the time the police chief notices it, the boys have bailed. | |

Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere / int_b707726f | comment |
Hypocritical Humor: Max insists that there's a difference between "dwarfs"(he thinks they're people with dwarfism who specifically work at circuses) and "midgets"(which is what he defines his ex-girlfriend Tina as). When Paddy insists that there's not a difference, Max calls him "Mr. Politically Incorrect!" | |

Ass Shove | |
Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere / int_c45c9fcd | comment |
Ass Shove: When Paddy was a child he used to frequently shove Star Wars action figures up his arse and once had to be taken to hospital after sticking an Obi-Wan Kenobi figure up there. One can only guess what Paddy's part in the porn film Willy Wanker And The Chocolate Factory entailed that makes him ask Max to drive over speed bumps more carefully. The room full of male bodybuilders is certainly a clue though. Upon being sent to prison for stealing a school bus full of children (see Big Damn Heroes), Max and Paddy face the unpleasant ordeal of a rectal examination to ensure they're not smuggling anything into the prison. | |

Shout-Out: The climax of Episode Two is a homage to The A-Team complete with the theme tune playing in the background. Paddy going to an audition dressed as a cowboy while "Everybody's Talkin'" plays. The "Row Row Row Your Boat" sequence on the bus in episode three is borrowed from Dirty Harry. In Episode Four, Max tries to start tunnelling out of prison. Billy has apparently killed Paddy, and upon hearing the police, Max pleads with Billy to give himself up, shouting “Billy, don’t be a hero!” | |

Catchphrase: A few. Max has "How dare you" (delivered in a haughty tone) and "You only get a bucket and a half" (relating to the amount of semen a man can produce), and Paddy has "Paddy has needs" (relating to his sex drive). Brian Potter squeezes a few indignant utterances of his signature phrase: "I don't know if you haven't noticed but I'm disabled" into his short cameo in Episode Four. Despite being a one-shot character, Billy manages to get one by frequently adding the phrase "But not in a gay way" to anything that could be considered a Double Entendre. | |

Big Damn Heroes: Tina has an offscreen one in Episode Four that's both intentional and accidental. She tells the Police why Max and Paddy stole a school bus full of children (Max was trying to meet his long lost son), which gets them released from prison but (more immediately) gets them pulled out of the exercise yard just as Raymond The Bastard and cronies are approaching them with the intention of savagely beating and quite possibly killing them. A more straight example comes in the last episode. When Max's psychotic friend Billy is about to murder him, Paddy (who had just been shot in the buttocks and was presumed by both Max and Billy to be dead or severely injured) knocks him out with a traffic cone. | |
