Well-known practical joker and TV personality, Sam Thompson has been taking on a side-hustle role as Chief Prankster for Elves Behavin’ Badly, causing mayhem up and down the country.
He’s worked with the Elves to cover a bathroom in wrapping paper, eaten all the chocolates from an advent calendar on day one, filled a kitchen cupboard with crispy cereal, and played chili cookie roulette with his long-term girlfriend, Zara McDermott!
But now, the Elves have got their own back as they’ve lured Sam into a Christmas grotto, before tying him up in lights, covering him in tinsel and leaving him as a present under the tree.
Sam has led the pranking charge, with other famous faces, including girlfriend Zara McDermott, fellow Made in Chelsea castmate, Binky Felstead, and TV personality Ferne McCann, to inspire the nation to get pranking and embrace a little mayhem, by sharing their antics on social media using #pranksmas.
Paul Beverley, a director of the worldwide distributors for the Elves Behavin’ Badly dolls says, “Working with Sam and his fellow pranking celebrities for this year’s Elves Behavin’ Badly Pranksmas campaign has been nothing but fun. We’ve created playful family moments for people to re-create, and I would say we’ve definitely upped the ante for next year’s fun too.
Seeing the lengths that Sam goes to when pranking our Elves, and Zara, is nothing short of inspirational! So, I’m sure he’s welcome at The North Pole whenever he wants. Although I do wonder how long he will remain on Santa’s naughty list after all this!
Following last year’s restrictions, it’s been lovely to see some normality in the run up to Christmas with our Elves busy pranking in homes up and down the country.”
