Comedy telling the story of two friends down on their luck and down to their last £40, and who have one last attempt at trying to get out from under their money worries by selling knock-off football sticker magazines.

They rope in the help of the local church to pretend to be the fake country of Fambia, telling them it was to save and convert the punters in the pub. Things go awry when the congregation decide that they need a helping hand converting the punters and come down to chant and protest outside and inside the pub, where the locals notice they look just like the team. The two friends are forced to make a deal with a dodgy policeman to get out of the pub with their heads. Show less
