Re: Gala Saturday 21st May 2011

It was a Jimmy Carr head. I went to British Military Vehicles to get a tank and got the head instead !

It was used for comic relief in February 2011 for Walkers Crisps. Jimmy Carr and Gary Lineker had a competition to promote different flavours of Walkers crisps. Jimmy Carr's flavour was called 'Jimmy Con Carne' The loser had to be waxed live on TV. The head was used for the Walkers crisps advert and a massive pie was driven in through the mouth.
