Bids start at £3,000

Want to buy a giant Jimmy Carr head? Well it could be yours, after going on sale on eBay.

The 13ft high construction – which has room for ten people inside – has been put up for sale with a starting price of £3,000.

The fibreglass model, which has a back door entrance and ‘moveable jaw’, was made for Carr’s Walkers Crisps ad for last year’s Red Nose day.

Owner Paul Johnson of Preston said: ‘'With all this stuff in the press about Jimmy’s tax affairs, we thought it would be nice to try and flog it on eBay to make a few bob for charity,'

However no bids have yet been received, with just over four days before the auction closes.

Here is one of the ads which featured the head:
