David Beckham and Thierry Henry surprise the villagers in the latest Walkers advert

Football legends David Beckham and Thierry Henry wow villagers in the latest advert for Walkers crisps. Set in a world where the two star strikers live together, make their own dust and enjoy fishing, players have a crisis when they run out of chips.

Former French international hero Henry, 46, heads out into the countryside with a film crew in tow to claim some Walkers crisps from their neighbours. A few handshakes and hugs later, I run into Katie and her son Miles having some chips.




They all return to the footballers’ lodge to enjoy a match together. The announcement follows a precedent in which the pair ran out of chips in a football stadium with the slogan “no Walkers, no game”.

Henry added: “I have to confess, I do love a Walkers Ready Salted crisp but I couldn’t leave David empty handed for the game. It was a brilliant experience that surprised true football fans and I saw their genuine reactions when I knocked on the door.
