WYCOMBE Wanderers Causeway Stadium was the unlikely destination for ITV camera crews last week.

The Wanderers ground was seen as the perfect venue to capture choreographed match action for a television spin-off of the hit comedy film Mike Bassett England Manager.

Starring the lovable scouser Ricky Tomlinson, of Royle Family fame, the six-part series follows the ups and downs of second division outfit The Wirrel.

And the rough and ready comedian certainly made an impression with Chairboys staff.

Leigh Knowles, club press officer, said: "Ricky was very funny and a really nice guy just like he comes across on TV."
