A League Of Their Own
Sport is all about rankings. First, second, third. Gold, silver, bronze. Not just rankings and lists like the Premier League table, the Super League table, and the ATP Rankings; but lists that tell us who has scored the most goals, who has taken the most wickets, and most importantly which sports star has had the most plastic surgery?
Now in its sixth season, the hugely popular A League Of Their Own features two teams of three - comedians teamed up with sport-loving star guests - who go head-to-head to correctly rank hilarious sporting lists over a number of rounds, building to an enormous physical endgame. A League Of Their Own was created by CPL Productions.
