Phoenix Nights star Toby Foster has downplayed rumours of a full Phoenix Nights reunion, claiming that he hasn't heard anything from Peter Kay about the show returning.
Foster, who played Les Campbell from the Phoenix Club backing band Les Alanos in the early '00s Channel 4 sitcom, revealed that he had been inundated with messages since Kay revealed that "big news" was coming very soon about the show.
The BBC radio presenter and comic said that he had spoken to Kay recently and he hadn't mentioned anything about the show. He also retweeted a comment from a follower, who suggested that if the show was coming back, he wasn't involved.
Bloody Hell. Loads of messages. Hand on heart, I have not heard a whisper about a new series of Pn. And I spoke to Peter last week.
