ASDA Celebrate 50th Anniversary With Return Of ‘Pocket Tap’ Ad
Music: Oh my love - The score
Asda chiefs are celebrating their 50th anniversary – with the return of their famous ‘pocket tap’ ad.
The cheeky commercial first appeared in 1977, and over the years featured celebrities like Carry On legend Hattie Jacques, actress Julie Walters and former England football star Michael Owen.
The pocket tap became so associated with Asda that the Royal Association for Deaf People adopted it as sign language for the supermarket.
And yesterday (Thur) stunned shoppers bagged another saving – when store chiefs brought in TV magician Ben Hanlin to conjure up fivers into their back pockets.
Ben, 26, baffled customers at the Old Kent Road store with an array of mind-bending tricks.
At one point he made fivers appear from bread rolls, a sealed packet of crisps and unopened yoghurt pots
