I looked up the ten biggest supermarket chains in the UK. Starting with the most recent, I watched their ads on their Youtube channels until a fictional present day couple was shown. Once I had seen them I watched that ad to the end and noted down all the couples shown.
Results
(1) Tesco
The couple are White British or at least White British-passing. For brevity I will just refer to White British-passing people as White British from now on.
(2) Sainsburys
A White British woman with a Black woman
A White British couple
A White British lad with a Southern European or South Asian girl
(3) ASDA
White British man with pregnant Black woman
(4) Morrisons
Mixed Race couple
(5) Aldi
White British couple
