John Lewis Christmas Advert! What do you think!

Have you all watched the alternative ad. It brought a tear to my eye which is not something that happens often. Perhaps feeling under the weather with a bad cold has made me a softy!

It’s a thumbs up from me 👍

Thanks, Grannynannywanny. It must have been The Bay I recognised her from. She's got one of those sad faces which works well in this kind of advert.

I’m another who thought the girl looked vaguely familiar CatsCatsCats. I had a look on Google and she’s a well established actress. I’ve not seen any of the programmes she’s featured in so I’m not sure why I think she looks familiar.

I read different things about it before watching it - from "the most depressing Christmas ad ever" to "groundbreaking". I wouldn't go as far as to describe it as either of those, but it's quite moving.

I've got a feeling I've seen the girl actress somewhere else before, but can't remember where.

Just googled that one Rosie now that really made me emotional

Sainsbury's 2014 one. Nothing will ever top that for me.
