David Baddiel has confirmed there will be a Christmas remake song and music video of Three Lions to incorporate the historic win of the Lionesses at Euro 2022. The 58-year-old comedian and presenter recorded the classic England football song with Frank Skinner and rock band The Lightning Seeds in 1996.
Speaking to the Chris Moyles Show on Radio X, Baddiel explained how they decided to reunite.
He said: "Ian Broudie of The Lightning Seeds - definitely a genius - he came to me and Frank and said, 'shall we do it with Christmas because it's December, the (men's) World Cup (is) in December, shall we do it, redone with lots of sleigh bells and kids choirs and that.' And me and Frank said, 'let's rewrite it with some Christmassy lyrics and some comedy.'
