ALDI left shoppers worried after it showed a trailer for its Christmas advert and Kevin the Carrot was nowhere to be seen.<\/p>\n
The character has featured in the discounter's\u00a0Christmas\u00a0campaign for the past eight years.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But Kevin doesn't appear in Aldi's teaser advert leaving some viewers worried he might have been given the chop.<\/p>\n
In the\u00a0Willy Wonka-themed trailer, viewers are introduced to new characters, who shoppers have dubbed the "Plumpa Loompas".<\/p>\n
However, shoppers can relax as it's now been confirmed that Kevin is back once again.<\/p>\n
Kevin the Carrot made his much-anticipated TV return, in Aldi's\u00a0latest 2023 festive ad.<\/p>\n
This time, he's paying a visit to\u00a0William\u00a0Conker's magical\u00a0Christmas\u00a0factory.<\/p>\n The\u00a0festive ad\u00a0opens with the five lucky visitors excitedly waiting to enter.<\/p>\n Accompanied by grate grandpa, Kevin embarks on his tour of the festive goodie-filled plant, encountering all sorts of mischievous characters on the way – including dancing plumty-dumptys and a spoilt little sprout.<\/p>\n With the other lucky winners including\u00a0"greedy, gluttonous grape" and\u00a0"naughty green kiwi" each landing themselves in bother and falling away, Kevin is finally the last carrot standing.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Upon passing the test and being handed the\u00a0"cheese"\u00a0to the factory, Kevin asks the wholesome question –\u00a0"Can I share my good fortune with everyone?".<\/p>\n The ad concludes with the charming closing message "Seasonal goodwill was truly in the air as Christmas is a time that's sweeter when you share".\u00a0<\/p>\n He is also accompanied by a cheerful crowd of characters from\u00a0Aldi's Christmas past, including\u00a0Ebanana Scrooge\u00a0and\u00a0Marcus Raddishford.<\/p>\n You can watch the full ad here.<\/p>\n Aldi has hinted that Kevin the carrot toys will be available for purchase.<\/p>\n Even though it's not completely confirmed it says on the supermarket's website: "Aldi will be donating proceeds from the sale of Kevin the carrot products to Teenage Cancer Trust."<\/p>\n Aldi will confirm when the toy goes on sale at a later date.<\/p>\n Thousands of shoppers were forced into a virtual queue last November after rushing to buy Kevin the carrot toys.<\/p>\n Customers were also outside their local stores from 4am to grab them.<\/p>\n In previous years\u00a0actual fights have broken out\u00a0in the aisles as\u00a0parents fought\u00a0to get their hands on them.<\/p>\n Some even bulk-bought the characters and\u00a0took to eBay to flog them\u00a0for much higher than they nabbed them for.<\/p>\n<\/picture>GOLDEN TICKET <\/span><\/p>\n
