Line 19:
*'''Duncan Beach''' ([[Daniel Kitson]]) - A [[St. John Ambulance]] volunteer who is devoted to his job, but treated with contempt by those he treats. Without his job, he would be stuck at home with his mum and "her fella". His hardest job was when the [[Pope]] visited [[Heaton Park]]. He was forced to question his faith in God, as he felt he could have made it a bit cooler and provided better seating arrangements.
*'''Shaun''' ([[Neil Fitzmaurice]])- A representative of the stadium security group Live Sec, Shaun is one of Kay's many characters that are humorous but forgotten in favour of such characters as Max and Brian Potter.
*'''Leonard de Thomkinson''' (Kay) - An elderly, kindly local eccentric. Due to [[angina]] he is unable to work, but has a paper round and is, therefore, Britain's oldest [[paperboy]]. He lived with his mother until her death and is very religious. Every day he carries a crucifix into the town centre and preaches the word of God. He is well liked but, it is suggested, has no real friends - though he does write to an American on death row. He is based on a real man (also called Leonard) who used to visit the [[Esso]] [[filling station|petrol station]] in his [[Reliant Robin]] where Kay worked. The real Leonard would often tell Kay about all the friends he had, yet, when he died in [[1991]], Kay was upset by the lack of people at his funeral.
*'''Mark Park''' (Kay) - An aspiring pop star, and former [[greengrocer]], who looks like [[Mick Hucknall]]. He has a dog called Lady. In the first episode he was a member of Park Avenue with '''Cheryl Avenue''', and won ''Talent Trek'' at the Neptune Club. The final episode, Lonely at the Top, charts his fall from fame. He also appears to have had a nose job.
*'''Pearl Harbour''' (Kay) - A would-be career woman who manages a Bolton [[service station]]. She is one of Kay's "Nosey bitches" and lords her power over the uninterested teenagers she employs.
