*'''[[Les and Alan|Les Alanos]]''' - The Neptune's house band, '''Les''' ([[Toby Foster]]) and '''Alan''' ([[Mark Jackson]]). Les originally worked with Alan's father before he left to form the tribute band ''Right Said Frank''. Les claims that "Les Alanos" only ''sounds'' Spanish, but that it is in fact their names cunningly disguised "Les, Alan, ''Us''!". In the later series ''Phoenix Nights'', Jackson was replaced by [[Steve Edge]] as Alan.
*'''[[Paul LeRoy|Paul le Roy]]''', often mis-pronounced ''Leroy'' (Kay) - A local [[disc jockey]] for the [[radio station]] [[Chorley FM]]. He is obsessed with the music of the [[1980s]]. He sports a [[mullet (haircut)|mullet]] and has a long-suffering wife.
*'''[[Keith Winston Lard]]''' (Kay) - An overly cautious local fire safety inspector who, it is alleged, interferes with dogs. The character appears to have been based on Bolton fire inspector Keith Laird, though both Kay and Channel 4 have been forced to deny this and publicly apologise.
*'''Patrick O'Neil''' (Kay) - A cheeky employee at the Apollo [[Housie|Bingo]] Hall, who along with his friend "Sparky" (so called because he was struck by lightning), causes havoc in the Apollo. Kay had actually worked in a Bolton bingo hall and admits that of the Patrick O'Neil is the only character in the series actually based on him.
*'''Tom Dale''' (Kay) - A [[Liverpool|Liverpudlian]] bingo caller known for his bizarre pre-show preparations and his catchphrase "Let's tickle those balls." For some reason, he bears more than a passing resemblance to [[Dracula]]. He is based on Roy Diamond, a bingo caller Peter worked with.
