Scouse nan calls husband 'dirty old b*****d' as used knickers arrive in post

A nan, who caught her husband apparently ordering a used pair of knickers, called him a "dirty old b******" in a hilarious prank gone wrong.

Alex Summers, from Knotty Ash, was hoping to prank his grandad, Graham Summers, 70, with a package addressed to him from 'pantysniff.co.uk' after seeing the joke website advertised online.

However, his 'Scouse nan', Carol Summers, intercepted the post and was furious to discover that her husband had ordered the rude gift.

Footage shows 74-year-old Carol shouting 'get in here now' to Graham, before confronting him and demanding 'what are you doing sending for knickers?'.

When he tries to defend himself, saying they are not his, Carol insists they have his name on them and brands him a 'dirty old b******'. Graham can be seen looking over the bright pink envelope, which states that it delivers 'fresh used panties to your door'.

Eventually hairdresser and salon owner Alex revealed it was a prank to the couple, who have been married for 55 years. Alex said: "It was [me] who did the prank on my grandad. I'd ordered them to prank my grandad, but my grandma got to the front door first.

"I wasn't expecting her to see them. It was so funny. It came up in a sponsored ad on the internet, I don't know why but it came up on my Instagram and I thought that'd be funny.

"As soon as they came [through the door], that was it, she was going 'No, surely not'. I started videoing as soon as I noticed that she had it [the envelope], and she started shouting at him calling him a 'dirty old bastard' and things.

"She was going mental. I hope I'm not that bothered when I've been married that long. They've been married for 55 years."

Alex's auntie can also be seen in the video telling the 'wound-up' nan to 'stop shouting'. The envelope doesn't actually contain any used knickers, but on the outside it describes the prank-panties as having been 'worn for 48 hours before as requested'.

Graham said: "I can't believe she thought they was mine. I thought [Carol] would've knew it wasn't me ordering them. I'm not a perve!"

Carol said: "Oh it was funny. I went mad at first, but when I read the letter it was good. [Alex is] a wind up."

Carol realised it was her grandson soon after the video was taken, turning to point at him and saying 'you!', before binning the envelope. Alex said: "[My grandad] was just laughing at her, he knew it was just all a joke.

"He realised straight away it was a prank, he was like 'why would I have ordered them'. "He knew it was me who'd done it because I couldn't stop laughing." My auntie, she had no idea, she didn't have a clue who they were from either. We're always there at their house, we basically care for them but I actually forgot I'd ordered it, and it was just by chance the postman came that day.

"She was just looking at me, she was so wound up about it, and then as soon as she seen me laughing she went 'you'. [Inside] it's an empty letter and it says 'haha pranks on you'.

"On the envelope it says his name and address and there's like a little bit of lace knickers hanging out. There's so many people from my area saying typical Scouse nan and grandad, she doesn't even realise she's shouting. My nan definitely binned it straight away. It was just so funny."
