Is 'early doors' there for people who can't recognise the saying 'early days'?

I believe it comes from back in the theatre days when you'd pay extra to get in early, they got to go through the doors before the rest.

Maybe I should put this under the "Things I learn't today" thread

Key Facts about "Early Doors":
Origin: It originated from 19th-century theatre, specifically "early doors" tickets that allowed patrons to enter early and secure the best seats for a premium.

That is correct, a couple of trotting commentators say it and it irks me.

I was brought (dragged) up using early days.
