Fantasy Football League – Chinese Football/Huge Fat Bloke

Classic moments from the 1996 series of Fantasy Football League. Angus Loughran (Statto) commentates on Chinese football, with David Baddiel commenting on the striker Lee Bing (”is it Jason Lee Bing!”).

Baddiel and Skinner then show Danny Baker a clip of Italian football with them claiming Baker was at the game. Danny tries to scupper the gag by saying “Cue Huge Fat Bloke” and sure enough, he is – and a lookalike too.

Guests on the show were Danny Baker and Neil Morrissey.
