This was a major prank that occurred in the third series of Dirty Sanchez. It was the boiling point to the Sanchez War and the Pritchard vs Dainton rivalry. It involved Dainton and Pancho working together against Pritchard to take something valuable from him.

How to lose a friend

"I'm so fucked!"

— Dainton laughs

Following the Pepper spray incident, Dainton was still unhappy with Pritchard for causing the incident and leaving all the boys to walk all the way to their gig. However, Dainton was willing to put that aside by pranking Pancho. Upon pranking Pancho, Pancho woke up in anger a chased the two boys, however, Pritchard abandoned Dainton when he was getting attacked by the small man. This caused Dainton to become angry and make an agreement with Pancho to get Pritchard in revenge.

One night Pritchard got intoxicated where Dainton decided to strike. Dainton decided to strike at what Pritchard was passionate about, his hair. Dainton shaved the middle of his head and kept a huge clump of the hair in his hand. Dainton then tried waking up Pritchard by splashing him with water and showing the heavily intoxicated Pritchard his hair but unfortunately for Dainton he was too drunk to notice. Dainton also had some time to write on the mirror in the hotel room "Pancho's revenge"

This gave Dainton more time to plan more chaos. The morning after, Pancho joined in. He saw the shaven head and tried to shave some more hair off but it didn't work, Pritchard awoke and chased Pancho away. Pritchard then then felt the top of his head and discovered it had been shaven off...

Aftermath

"It's a funny thing guilt..."

— Dainton

Pritchard was furious and quite upset. He smashed things in his hotel room and threatened Dainton saying:

"If Dainton has anything to do with it and I fucking see this! That's fucking it! World War fucking three? Winston Churchill?I'll fucking gargle Winston fucking Churchill so I know, we'll fight on the beaches, yeah, I'll fucking fight on the bus, I'll fucking fight in fucking Wales! DAINTON YOU'RE DEAD!"

— Pritchard's threat

Upon witnessing his outrage, Pancho tried to comfort him, which worked. Dan Joyce felt sorry for Pritchard and shaved his own head in remorse. Eventually all the Sanchez boys ganged up on Dainton believing he had gone too far this time. Pritchard was so embarrassed from the prank he didn't appear at the live show.

Trivia

• Dainton must have bad hand writing as he spelt "Pancho's revenge" as "Pancho's revnge". Either that or he was rushed for time in case Pritchard woke up and saw him.
• Prichard seems to have 666 tattooed on the back of his head.
