"Gnocchi" television commercial

Television commercial (20 seconds) promoting the new Sainsbury's Reward Card. It was one of three advertisements ('Gnocchi', 'Raining' and 'Marmalade') produced together in June 1996. The advert was filmed in a residential garden in Kidbrooke, London on 7th June 1996 and the three adverts were due to air on television from 17th June 1996. It has a clock number (reference number used by television companies) of AMV/SAMA368/030. The commercial shows a couple discussing what to spend their Reward Vouchers on - the man wants marmalade to go on his toast, the woman wants to spend them on various treats. The background music is a theme used in several Sainsbury’s 1990s commercials entitled “Thirty Something”.
