Peter Kay had a surprise birthday bash at Nutters as he celebrated his 40th with family, friends and his showbiz pals. Guests crammed into Nutters to spring out and surprise the Phoenix Nights star, who turned 40 in June.

And there was one further surprise for Peter when Take That star Gary Barlow was sneaked through the kitchens at the venue to make his entrance to the bash too. Guests were treated to a special banquet created by celebrity chef Andrew Nutter, Manchester’s reigning Chef of the Year.
