I don't think it's the official advert? (Like the ones everyone releases later in the year) However all the delivery slots and pre orders will be opening soon for the supermarkets so makes sense they start advertising

Arrh so its just a taster before the 3 month lead up. My partner said he saw another one thinks it was Very.

Christmas is being pushed on us earlier each year, I'm no scrooge I love christmas but I don't like to see Dec's in the shops and TV adverts at the beginning of September!!

I'm rather looking forward to the Christmas ads this year as one was filmed in a nearby street a few weeks ago. No idea who it's for as that was not mentioned in the flyer that was put through all our doors to explain why the street would be closed off for night filming. Mind you, by the time they've added all the special effects the street may be unrecognisable!

@Teacup40
Exactly my thoughts

I love Christmas but its way too soon for a Christmas ad

At least wait until after Halloween omg

The shops & supermarkets started getting their Christmas gear in at the start of September. Gift sets, biscuits, booze etc… That’s a four month run in to Christmas. It used ti be after Halloween. Easter is the same, Jan, Feb, March, April.
