Just watched the John Lewis xmas advert

Hmmmmm...

Nice reasoning behind theme but too contrived and maudling, I think. That robin was a disaster!

[Toorak]

It's not exactly going to instil Christmas cheer 😥

[Jayne01]

If you are referring to the one with the old man and the robin, it's a fake.  The real one drops on Sunday.

That's what I thought too but was surprised to see it on the internet already. I think it is in very poor taste if that is the case.

What on earth is the point of a Christmas advert on the 7th November? 

I've even seen M&S and Waitrose Christmas food adverts on TV - who in their right mind is even thinking about Christmas food at this time, let alone likely to be prompted to go out and buy some?

I saw a Christmas ad on Nov 1. I was horrified. The Post code lottery ads have have people dressed for Christmas for a while now.

Not ads, bludgeons to beat the plebs into submission.

Talking about ads - I WAS interested in a funeral plan but I'm so peed off with the persistent, if not to say agressive, TV ads by Pure Cremation et al that I've decided NOT to die!🤣
