Liam Payne stars in comedy sketch for UNICEF


16 06 2015

Liam Payne, Andy Murray, Clare Balding and Jack Whitehall have teamed up with UNICEF UK to star in a comedy tennis sketch for the charity's Children in Danger Summer Disease Appeal, which is raising awareness and funds for children in danger of disease.

In the sketch, Murray can be seen taking on the role of a coach trying to get his team, which includes Payne, Balding and Whitehall, ready for a charity tennis match. Payne commented 'I know Jack Whitehall and we get on well so it was fun trying to wind him up during filming and ignore him when he hassled me for a part in One Direction. We also got to play a bit of tennis with Andy which was great. I hit one shot that he had to stretch for so I thought 'yes!' That's a life goal!''.
