Frank Skinner

Christopher Graham Collins (born 28 January 1957), known professionally as Frank Skinner, is an English comedian, actor, presenter and writer. At the 2001 British Comedy Awards, he was named Best Comedy Entertainment Personality. His television work includes ''Fantasy Football League'' from 1994 to 2004, ''The Frank Skinner Show'' from 1995 to 2005, ''Baddiel and Skinner Unplanned'' from 2000 to 2005, and ''Room 101'' from 2012 to 2018. From 2009 to 2024 he hosted ''The Frank Skinner Show'' on Absolute Radio, broadcast live on Saturday mornings and released as a podcast. In October 2024 Skinner launched the ''Frank Off The Radio'' podcast, with the same crew as the radio show.

Along with David Baddiel, he provided vocals and wrote the lyrics for "Three Lions", the official song in collaboration with Liverpudlian indie band the Lightning Seeds, to mark the England national football team's participation in the 1996 European Championship (which was hosted in England); he also reprised his role to release two subsequent versions of the song for the England team's involvement in the 1998 FIFA World Cup and 2010 World Cup. The 1996 version is the only song ever to have four separate stints at number one in the UK singles chart with the same artists, the most recent coming in July 2018 following England reaching the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup.
