and here's some additional info from the indispensible TV Cream:

SAMMY'S SUPER T-SHIRT - There was this kid, right? Called Sammy, and he had a... yes, well. Archetypal childhood Messiah fantasy gave the initially poor, put-upon and bullied Sammy a New Start In Life as the picture on his T-Shirt (which we seem to remember was one of those iron-on tiger's heads, or something), when rubbed, gave off "magical powers", due to some accidental chemical spillage incident wiv da shirt. Time stopped, sports day races were won and much mayhem ensued. Eventually, of course, something "went wrong" to make Sammy discard the shirt and "love himself for who he really is". Or something like that, but that was the dull moral that all the kids always ignored anyway.
