Prankster for Elves Behavin’ Badly is right up my street - it’s basically my calling, as everyone who knows me knows I live for winding up anyone around me. Coming up with Pranksmas ideas with the Elves and being encouraged to cause chaos and taunt Zara for basically the whole month of December is amazing – she won’t know what’s hit her!” Paul Beverley, a director of PMS International - the worldwide distributor for the Elves Behavin’ Badly dolls - thinks this year’s campaign will bring a whole new level of mischief. He said: “This year, Elves Behavin’ Badly are upping the ante, taking pranking to a whole new level with the help of the naughty elves. Following restrictions around the festivities last year and limited household mixing, this year - with the help of Sam and other familiar faces - we are going all-out and want to inspire everyone to get involved this Christmas.” Following concerns of shortages with up to a million Elves Behavin’ Badly dolls previously stranded in China, the stock is now arriving in the UK having been flown in, and the cheeky Elves will be here just in time to cause their traditional festive mayhem.
