Justin Lee Collins' Fake Santa

Justin Lee Collins is planning to trick his children with Santa's footprints on Christmas Eve (24.12.09).

The UK TV host said he likes to enjoy a traditional Christmas with his family at home, and can't wait to try out a new trick on his children Archie, four, and Harvey, two.

He said: "My children have the time of their lives at Christmas. I got this tip for what to do - In our kitchen we've got a fireplace, and we say Father Christmas comes down that chimney.

"So what I'm going to do is get a wellington boot, put it down by the fireplace, pour flour all over it and get rid of the boot leaving 'Santa's footprint'. Isn't that lovely!"

He also said he enjoys a large family affair in the festive season and that the whole family will come to his and his wife's home in Bristol for their dinner.

Justin, 35, added: "I will be at home, all the family, Christmas at our house. My mum and dad will come up, Karen, my wife and her parents will come up too and it will be the eight of us with our two little boys.

"We've had Christmas lunch at ours for the last six or seven years straight now. I'm not one of those people that wants to spend Christmas Day on a beach."
