Now Kay releases a fitness DVD

Peter Kay’s drive to market just about any sort of merchandise takes another leap this Christmas – with the release of a fitness video.

The comic is already selling a range of products from umbrellas to towels and ringtones to aprons.

But, despite his waistline, he’s teaming up with Max And Paddy co-star Patrick McGuinness for the DVD, titled Power Of Two.

The blurb for the disc reads: ‘Down on their luck, and up on body mass, Max & Paddy take to the world of home fitness video, deciding to mix Max's strict army training with Paddy's knowledge and limited experience of s-exercise. What more could the British public need to get back into shape after Christmas?’

The £19.99 DVD is released on December 27 on Channel 4 video. Click here to pre-order

It is the fourth Peter Kay title to be released this Christmas, following the Max and Paddy series; Live At Manchester Arena (the second release from his Mum Wants A Bungalow tour); and Driven To Distraction, which features a pilot show from early in his career plus his three cameos on Coronation Street.
