Police have prevented a group of eleven comedians from boarding the England World Cup plane as it left Luton Airport on Sunday.
According to officials, the men were wearing identical suits to the England travelling party, and were masquerading as professional footballers.
It was only after airport staff noticed the squad’s obvious lack of co-ordination and inability to keep possession of their luggage that the alarm was raised.
After being interviewed by police, the men confessed they were merely taking part in a comedy team called “England”, in which they play the roles of fictional sportsmen.
