The Boots Christmas Ad.

Just been given an advanced viewing of the Boots Christmas advertisement. IMO it is absolutely awful just a mish mash of scenes. It doesn’t feel Christmassy at all it’s just about consumerism. I realise they are trying to sell their products but for me I would give it 0 out of 10. I wonder what others may think when it is released tomorrow.

Not a robin in sight ?

There's a item on YouTube that claims to be JL's Christmas ad 2019. I really hope it isn't as it's incredibly tedious. And it's not the only one.

If it's the Christmas Has Changed one I've just watched, anno, it's not the genuine article (phew).

Looking forward to the JL ad (sort of! as in previous years it's had me in floods of tears - bear and hare from 2013 I couldn't even hear a couple of bars from the tune without blubbering my eyes out!)

I like the Dogs Trust advert , it’s sweet and sad and very apt

Has anyone seen the Robert Dyas one? It was shown on Have I Got News for You.

I saw the Dogs Trust one last night and agree it's really cute and very relevant.

This came out last year. Beautiful.

Cost £50 to make

The big players could learn a thing or two

I agree about the Digs Trust one. Let’s hope the message gets through!

I want to rescue the cork dog!

Think I am going to buck the GN trend, re the Mark's and Sparks ad.
I think that it is in the party spirit.???

I can see my little grandchildren bopping to it.

Mark's sell children's clothes, so has to be relevant to Parents and children.
Agree the dog at the end was a nice touch.?

Cannot get the point of the Boots one at all. Dreadful.
