Harry Enfield's Television Programme - Characters - Fat Bloke

Fat Bloke

A fat, jolly-looking man (played by David Barber) who formed a running gag during the original show—for no apparent reason he would walk into the middle of a sketch, hand something to a character (usually appropriate to the situation), be told "Thank you Fat Bloke!", and walk off. In Harry Enfield and Chums, he would sing a song (ranging from "Lord of the Dance" to "Smack My Bitch Up") in operatic style at the end of the closing credits, introduced by Enfield: "The show's not over until the Fat Bloke sings!" He made his first appearance in a script for The Scousers.

Famous quotes containing the word fat:

    O why do you walk through the fields in gloves,
    Missing so much and so much?
    O fat white woman whom nobody loves,
    Why do you walk through the fields in gloves,
    When the grass is soft as the breast of doves
    And shivering sweet to the touch?
    Frances Cornford (1886–1960)
