Dennis Waterman has admitted that he does not understand a Little Britain sketch which makes fun of him.
The actor is confused about why David Walliams has been shrunk to perform the Little Dennis Waterman sketch, which sees Matt Lucas playing Dennis's agent, Johnny Rent, who can't find work for the star.
Waterman, who has yet to meet the show's creators, told The Sun, "They are funny but I don't understand why I'm so small.
"My daughter was at The National Youth Theatre with the ugly gay in the village, Matt something or other."
Lucas came up with the sketch after spotting Waterman at a party, and noticing that he looks smaller in real life.
