Young Kenny
Encyclopedia
Young Kenny is one of many characters from the comic world of Peter Kay
.
Young Kenny is a quiet member of The Phoenix Club
played by Justin Moorhouse. He Appeared in Peter Kay's Phoenix Nights
and briefly appearing "butt naked" in Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere
.
Young Kenny is the uncredited member of The Phoenix Club
, mainly because he is quite dumb. Young Kenny likes to engineer
, an area where a spark of intelligence shines through. Young Kenny is always to be seen wearing a Manchester City F.C.
shirt. He is a staff member who will shine when he wishes to, mostly criticised and mocked by his boss Brian Potter
.
In Series 2, Young Kenny gained something that earned him a new nickname: "Tiger face". When it was Family Fun Day at the Phoenix, they hired "one of Ray Von's mates" to do the face-painting. He turned out to be a gypsy who sprayed children's faces with car paint or some sort of permanent paint. Young Kenny couldn't wash the paint off, leaving him with a permanent tiger's face (unless he gets permanent paint to match his skin tones). However, by his appearance on Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere
, most of the paint has worn off except for bits on his eyebrows and nose.
Young Kenny may be well-remembered for playing Meat Loaf
in Stars in Their Eyes
(after Den Perry cancelled the other scheduled performers at the club). Young Kenny made a brilliant entry on the Take-away Moped
, after engineering it to look like a motorbike with spraypainted silver cola bottles and cardboard wings.
Young Kenny's three favourite things are: his Wooly Hat, Engineering, and his Take-away Moped.
