John Lewis Christmas Advert

I dunno.
There's some of us huddled over a 3 watt bulb, trying to cut down on consumerism, and we're bombarded with ads with Christmas lights, tables groaning with food... Tsk, tsk.

Ok. I'll be quiet now.

The JL ad is ten times better than the dreadful Boots one. It at least feels Christmassy.

This is just an observation not a criticism the Boots one includes a trans person on the bus if I’m not mistaken.

I like it
I want a mince pie.

Oh now I do like those.

I've eaten --2 boxes some this week.

Well, that went wrong.
I blame Meghan Markle.

Is it just me or is the main girl character ( especially with her hair tied back) a clone of Greta-a subliminal image to encourage people to be nice to dragons in case they are made extinct. Oh, my mistake, they never existed in the first place! A nice advert though this year, the best since the snowman one.

Dragons never existed
You must be joking!

Missadventure I m with you all the way load tosh and my brain will just switch off when these adverts are on we ve got weeks and weeks of this too

I had my first mince pie of the season today. I had it in Primark caff. Was lovely.

Mince pies are different they don’t shout and scream and pretend to be so jolly and happy for six weeks

I blame Meghan Markle.

I hope they were vegan mince pies.

Just read that JL have had to apologise as the ad is upsetting children and making them cry.

Give those kids a clip round the ear 'ol. Tell 'em to man up.

I’m missing out here in Spain -no mince pies for me then until we go back mid December! Maybe that’s a good thing ....

I liked Aldi’s Xmas ad last year too with Kevin the Carrot.

I think the baby dragon ad is cute!

I liked the dragon advert, big improvement on Elton John

I haven't been that keen on the the previous few years of JL xmas ads but this one did it for me. (I'm collecting my Edgar at 2pm tomorrow! )

We tend to look out for the JL adverts and this year's is cute and fun - anything has to be better than last year's Elton John personnal advert for EJ! Like the thread about our little dragon and wouldn't notice its non-PC aspects!

annsixty the song is sung by the lead singer of Bastille, Dan Smith.

Thought I’d post this for those of us with a sense of humour ‘’

Love that! Thanks gillyknits

Hadn't seen it but checked it out on here thanx to B9exchange, have to say I wasn't impressed.

I want a dragon

Does anyone celebrate the birth of Jesus anymore?

Not usually in John Lewis.
