Jason Lee has finally had the moment he waited more than 25 years for - an apology from David Baddiel for the way he was abused on the Fantasy Football League show when he played for Nottingham Forest in the mid-90s.
Mocking players on the cult TV show was a running theme but for Lee it crossed a line with Baddiel donning Blackface and sticking a fake pineapple on his head to represent his hairstyle of the time. The apology happened a while ago, during the Women's Euros as the pair discuss their support for the game on Lee's new AbsoluteLee podcast. As Baddiel professes his advocacy for the women's game, Lee asks 'what was the last game you went to?'
Baddiel's confession he's never been to one is a relatively mild uncomfortable moment in an hour long interview which is generally raw, upfront and essential viewing for those of us who enjoyed the cult hit and have come to realise - or not - just how badly it aged and how torturous it was for Lee.
