john lewis christmas ad

[bednobs]

oh good god, now it's got me blubbing!

[Athley]

Nope nothing !!! Mind you I don't particularly like kids so maybe that's it lol !!


What was last years like??

[ummmm]

[jackthehat]

I hated that^.

[erin-x]

Oh I love that song! (from the 2010 one)

I like the new one... the wee boy is from Scotland is he not? I'm sure there was a bit about him in the Daily Record this week.

[douglas9401]

Ahem! You all know it's only November and just a matter of time till you wish the wee fella would fall off the swing, The Coke lorries jack-knife and the X-Factor lot are back down the Jobcentre don't you?

[haysi06]

And bednobs one of my all time fave songs as the soundtrack, (although obviously not sung by the Smiths)

[annie0000]

Awww - why did I go watch that? Now i'm blubbing too!!!!

[MissCommando]

I must be made of stone cause I didn't get one bit emotional. The only thing that makes me have a tear is cruelty to animals.

Forgive me if I clicked on the wrong link but I can`t see anything sad in that ad. Yes, it`s sentimental and I can understand that people might be moved by it but from where I`m standing, I see a kid who lives in a comfortable, heated home in the UK with many comforts. If the ad showed a little kid in Rio or somewhere who lives in poverty in a favela and wears rags then that would be sad. The ad is aimed at people in the UK who have the money to fall for the marketing ploy. Some people in many (most)? parts of the world are`nt so lucky.

[askyourgran]

Oh it's lovely, the little boy is so cute.

[4getmenot]

when he took it out the cupboard I thought he was gonna give it to his little brother, now that would have made me blub

[benny3008]

tis a brilliant advert, also love the marks and sparks one with the xfactor singers.

[craft1948]

Is it the same little boy from the ad where he waves his light sabre at a car and his father makes the lights flash?

[craft1948]

lol what a stupid question to ask...............you can't see the kid for the Darth Vader mask................doh.

[4getmenot]

I think it may well be his hands looked the same lol

[Lie-in King]

I must keep an eye out for this - nothing like the butchery of a Smiths song to cheer me up
