THIS is the moment Peter Kay had a heckler kicked out of his live show – telling security guards to "kick him in the face"
The iconic comedian was performing his Better Late Than Never… Again! show in Manchester when he was constantly disrupted by a member of the audience, who kept screaming out his old 'garlic bread?' catchphrase.
In the video captured by an audience member, Peter responded: "Garlic bread? Kick him in the f**king face, will ya? Everyone around you is thinking 'p***k'."
Peter then demands a light be put on the ticketholder and points him out to security guard Keith, declaring: "Give us a wave, k**bhead."
"Look at him, he doesn't know where he is!" before leading a chant if "you're going out".
"Look, they're all coming for ya, you p***k!" Peter laughs, encouraging people to film it before calling him "Garlic dead".
"He's not laughing now is he?" Peter continued, pulling up a chair and requesting chocolate as he watched the man be removed, mocking the fan's confusion as he's escorted out.
At this point, a woman from the other side of the arena starts yelling too, prompting Peter to go, "Christ almighty. Bloody hell. I love Saturdays."
"Alright love, we've heard ya. Take her out and all," he declares, pointing her out to the security guard as "the woman in the black and white top from Debenhams Blue Cross".
By now, the audience were beginning to lose entertainment in the bit, and can be heard sharing the confusion at the escalation.
"You're going flower now, and all. You've upset every bugger out there, go on out you pop. You've missed the ending and everything," he said. "What a shame, your f***king big gob, drinking de-icer.
"Go on Lisa Riley, f**k off!"
When she got confused, he made the crowd around her cheer "if she was f**king annoying" before telling the woman "no refunds" as she was ejected.
Fans branded the moment 'nasty and bitter', especially considering the apparent jab Emmerdale star Lisa.
Peter spoke out on the matter in a statement released to Good Morning Britain on Tuesday morning, where he said he was unaware of that connection.
The statement read: "She did look remarkably like Lisa Riley, I didn't realise that was an insult.
"There comes a point when dealing with repeated hecklers simply isn't enough.
"It's not something you ever want to do but it becomes a point when it's no longer fair to everyone around."
Lisa has also spoken out about the incident, dismissing the issue and writing on Instagram: "Please draw a line under this now, I am not offended, never was offended. I love Peter Kay to pieces. Laughter is my favourite medicine."
The male heckler is now reportedly demanding a refund for both his and his sons tickets to the show.
