Video: England's Ben Foden shows his funny side in 'DIY Christmas' campaign for Worx

Foden launches 'DIY Christmas' campaign

England and Northampton Saints rugby star Ben Foden has poked fun at himself in an advert encouraging parents to handmake Christmas presents for their children this year.

The 29-year-old, who is married to The Saturdays singer Una Healy and father to daughter Aoife, has launched the 'DIY Christmas' campaign for power tools provider Worx.

During the ad, Foden gives a glimpse of what he enjoys to do when he gets some alone time in the garage, including imagining himself auditioning for The X Factor and scoring the winning try for England in the World Cup.

The campaign has been launched after researched showed that 64% of children thought that it was more meaningful to receive a handmade gift.
