England V Italy Euro 2012: Roy Hodgson's Comedy Sketch From His Inter Milan Days (VIDEO, PICTURES)

WATCH: Roy's Italian Days With Mr Flanagan

Roy Hodgson's appointment as England manager in May sparked nostalgia for the more alternative moments in the wily coach's career.

Amongst a photogenic scrapbook from Scandinavia to Switzerland was his comedy sketch with a certain "Mr Flanagan". And no, it's not Mickey.

Now that Hodgson's England are due to play Italy, it is pertinent (or an excuse) to air the "comedic" video.

Filmed during Hodgson's spell managing Internazionale in Italy, it aired on television programme Mai dire Gol, and although the double act isn't as bad as Sylvester Stallone and Estelle Getty from Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot , it's hardly Laurel and Hardy.

Hodgson had two spells at San Siro between 1995-1997 and as a caretaker in 1999 under the notoriously trigger-happy Nerazurri owner Massimo Moratti.
