    Absolutely brilliant work of art.

    No woke nonsense , no OTT product placement.

    Wonderfully nostalgic and moving.

    Won’t shop there as it’s too expensive but they do make great adverts

    I haven't seen it yet. I'll go on YouTube, then give you my verdict.

    Is it too early to start a Christmas thread, or should we just use this one?

    I've already got my tree and decorations up. My factotum is brilliant with baubles and lights.

    Just watched it

    Not a DEI hire in sight.

    So refreshing.

    Diversity, Equality & Inclusion.
    A term used in the USA originally, during the Biden years I believe.

    I must be out of touch, I didn’t know that. I just like it because it is a well crafted produced advert.

    I haven't seen the ad.
    I tend to avoid Christmas related things until 1st December :emoticon-0158-time:

    Was attracted to this thread by mild curiosity, now satisfied.

    It's an okay advert. Nothing special. 6/10

    I like Asda's Grinch advert. He gets less Grinch-like the more savings he makes. Very clever.
