Abstract: Let $ D$ denote the open unit disc, and let $ A(D)$ denote the disc algebra. The subsets $ E$ of $ \partial D$ such that the inclusion $ A(D)[f,{\overline f}]\supset C(\overline D)$ holds for every nonconstant $ f\in H^\infty (D)$ continuous on $ E$, or the inclusion $ A(D)[f] \supset C(\overline D)$ holds for every bounded harmonic nonholomorphic function $ f$ on $ D$ continuous on $ E$, are characterized. In the first case the condition is that $ E$ has positive measure, and in the second case that $ E$ has full measure in $ \partial D$.
