10 iconic The Prodigy moments
'Fat Of The Land' is 20
Telling Chris Evans to fuck off
Chris Evans' party boy antics during the '90s got him into a lot of bother, but that bad boy behaviour didn't seep through to his Radio 1 show, which wasn't allowed to play 'Smack My Bitch Up' due to a BBC-wide ban. The Prodigy made sure to remind him when he presented them with their award for Best Live Act at the 1997 Q Awards. "Respect to everybody who voted for us, even though certain people won't play us on their radio station," Maxim aimed at him in the acceptance speech. In a state of embarrassment, Evans claimed he'd play 'The Fat Of The Land' album in full "tomorrow", before Liam Howlett, beaming, told him to "fuck off". After a few words thanking their table, he chucked another one in for good measure. It was all in good fun, though.
