I'm not sure when this is from (I'm guessing 1982 when England were going to Spain for the World Cup) but it features Michael Barrymore doing probably the shittest impersonation of anyone ever, let alone John Barnes, who doesn't even have a West Indian accent!

For those who don't know, Barnes was one of the first famous black footballers in the UK. He upset a lot of racists when he was picked to play for England, causing many of them to refuse to support the team. He was also manager of Celtic for a while, but the less said about that the better...
