Fake celebrities cause chaos in Thames PR stunt
A PUBLIC relations stunt on The Thames went awry last week, riverside City spies tell The Capitalist.
Sightseeing company City Cruises launched its Thamesjet experience on the river, and to mark the occasion hired a group of celebrity lookalikes, including Daniel Craig, Angelina Jolie, Tom Cruise and Arnold Schwarzenegger to pose on one of its jet-engined RIB speedboats.
Unfortunately the fake James Bond and friends, who were all in costume and eagerly pointing toy guns towards the shore, managed to fool onlookers in nearby offices. The police were called and The Capitalist hears that after all the doppelgangers were thoroughly searched, City Cruises managing director Kyle Haughton had a lot of explaining to do.
