'I was the star of the show, really' – Peter Crouch on his Agent Provocateur lingerie advert with Abbey Clancy

Londoner’s Diary

A scream went up outside a pub in central London last night. You’d have thought something terrible had happened but in fact it was ex-footballer Peter Crouch and model Abbey Clancy pulling up to a pub in a blacked-out car. They were arriving for a party to celebrate Agent Provocateur’s Christmas Campaign, which the duo star in.

In the raunchy advert, a furious, red lingerie clad Clancy marches into a pub where Crouch is playing snooker with his mates, ties him up, and promptly fires a snooker ball into his nethers. “A gentle reminder from Agent Provocateur not to forget date night this Christmas,” it concludes. Not your average John Lewis Christmas fairytale.
