In a clip for Keith's show Coming in America, he says into Vinnie's intercom: "Hello? Hi Vinnie it's Keith Lemon, I need a poo. Don't be a knobhead and let us in. Come on."
But Vinnie replies: "You're having a laugh ain't ya?
The Mean Machine actor then opens the gates to his huge mansion and glares at Keith with the bat in hand.
He screams at Keith: "Take your film crew and f*** off, Ken? Get in the van and clear off."

The Celebrity Juice presenter swears back at Vinnie before he bottles it and runs back to his van.
Keith was filming for ITV2’s brand new series, Keith Lemon: Coming In America.
It follows the cheeky presenter as he and some of his best loved sketch show characters head to L.A. to try to break America.
With a documentary film crew recording his every move, Keith attempts to realise his ultimate dream of hosting his own US chat show.

He takes some of his favourite sketch alter-egos along for the ride including The Urban Fox, The Big Fat Gypsy Kardashians and David Dickinson as well as introducing some brand new characters.
He's already bagged guest appearances from Sharon and Jack Osbourne, Ashley Roberts, Spencer Pratt, Emma Bunton, John Barrowman and Gene Simmons - and was likely trying to nab Vinnie for a chat.
Speaking about the show, he told The Sun's Fabulous he's had other knock backs from Hollywood celebs: "John Travolta hasn’t replied to my messages.

He went on: "I messaged Kylie Minogue once inviting her on Celebrity Juice. She said she’d think about it, which is showbiz for “no f**king chance”.
"Emma Bunton is my LA pal. She’s got her own parking space at ABC studios because she’s doing that Boy Band show. We hang out quite a lot."
