John Lewis advert

I thought it was creepy 😆

Liked the alternative one with the Fresh Prince music.

Two shops have lost my business this week. Goods in hand on the way to the till when suddenly I realised they were playing Christmas music in the firsts ****ing week in November!!! Put the stuff back on the shelf and walked out.

You tell em!

Perfect edit 😀

I took a contact old lonely people message from that, as we do for our neighbours. It is effective for that, plus we can’t afford John Lewis shopping so the buy stuff message gets ignored.
Those who thought paedophile as humour need to take a long hard look at yourselves.

Exactly the same for me. I imagine for a lot of older folks on their own at Christmas, they feel like they may as well be on the moon for all they’re involved in the festivities. Coupling that with a child’s nursery rhyme is the art of the advert.

Best Xmas ad of the year so far for me…

Poor show at John Lewis blocking the dark side vid…however http://www.thepoke.co.uk/2015/11/06/john-lewis-christmas-ad-2015-dark-side-version/

Just watched it

I thought about my gran and an old guy that I used to go and chat to on my way home from school. He used to tell some great stories about the war and how the local area used to be. We invited him to Christmas dinner one year. I think he was over the moon

I welled up watching that…

my kid has that dinosaur helmet

Prior to advert, small girl hears the nursery rhyme. In advert, uses telescope to look for man in moon.
