Aldi has unveiled its new Christmas advert, starring everyone's favourite carrot Kevin in a sketch inspired by one of the most iconic series of festive films.
The amusing advert begins with Kevin's wife Katie and children Chantenay, Jasper and Baby on a plane, ready to take off for a Christmas family trip to Paris, when Katie suddenly realises someone important is missing. The camera zooms in to the carrot's face as she screams "Kevin!" - a nod to the famous moment in Home Alone when Kevin's mum Kate, played by Catherine O'Hara, realises she has forgotten to bring her son on holiday with her.
Kevin the Carrot is then seen back at home all by himself watching the football - but when an intruder is spotted landing on the roof and peering through the letterbox, he quickly becomes embroiled in a series of adventures in an attempt to ward them off, much like his namesake played by Macaulay Culkin. Kevin swings from Christmas tree lights and hides behind a flaming Christmas pudding, before making a daring escape out of the window and ending up stuck in a snowman.
