The principal stunt dwarf from classic flick Willow left our Foxy weeping last month during a pugil stick battle set up as part of the Pot Noodle Food Fight tour.

Mini fighter Peter ‘The Beater’ Bonner opened a chicken and mushroom-flavoured can of whoopass on Bizarre’s gal as part of a series of promotional events designed to ram the message home that the compact pots of pasta are “small on size, but big on flavour, so your lunch can pack a punch”.

And whether the instant snacks are your idea of tastebud-tantalising heaven or monosodium glutamate-soaked hell, there’s still one last chance for you too to be bopped like a Whack-A-Mole by a catsuited midget: the final Food Fight will take place at the Rip Curl Boardmasters event on Fristral Beach, Newquay, 4-10 August; so if you’re about, drop by and get ready to rumble.
