"Merk'd" was a short English hidden camera practical joke show hosted by English footballer Rio Ferdinand. The show strongly resembled the American show "Punk'd" which is hosted and produced by Ashton Kutcher. Ferdinand chose certain English footballers to play a prank on. The pranks would usually end with the catchphrase "You got merk'd!". The show was also known as the "World Cup Wind-Ups", since Ferdinand intended to play pranks on his fellow English footballers shortly before the World Cup of 2006.
