Christmas Adverts
« on: November 20, 2012, 01:19:00 pm »
So which is your favourite from this year's crop? Having wanted to vomit at the John Lewis ad for the last couple of years, I actually quite like Mr Snowman risking life and limb to buy his wife a pressie. (Although I do wonder why he didn't just order online. Perhaps he's based in the Scottish highlands.) By contrast, I'm disappointed by the M&S effort. Bring back Shirley Bassey in the ski lodge!

I am trying to pretend Christmas is not happening for a couple more weeks. I have seen the John Lewis one and it's kind of cute.

I don't know about a proper Xmas advert but I'm loving the Kevin Bacon one right now.

I love the John Lewis snowman advert too.  All the other Christmas adverts seem to annoy me .

I still haven't seen it.  I'm determined not to cheat as I'm sure it will appear sometime during the only programme I ever watch that has adverts - The Chase!
