Bridgerton star Adjoa Andoh takes charge of Christmas in British retailer Boots’ holiday ad. Andoh, known for playing the character Lady Danbury in the Netflix hit show, assumes the role of Mrs. Claus in a magical Christmas workshop (or “werkshop”) where elves prepare gifts for beauty enthusiasts around the world. She runs the workshop with confidence, ease, and a little sass, solving gifting crises like a bow shortage. In Santa’s absence, she wryly asks viewers, “You thought it was all him?”
