Feel like crying now. Bugger.

Ah, consumer manipulation at its best Nicely done.

There's something in my eye.
Much better than cartoon animals.
Who's singing the cover? Is it birdie?

Oh bugger. sniff

Bear and hare still my fav.

They really are a pastiche of themselves.

Made me cry like a baby

Feck, feck, feck am bawling into my Weetabix.

But what is it I need to buy now? A telescope or a man in the moon toy?

I'm quite underwhelmed.

Did absolutely nothing for me. Rather disappointing!

I was hoping he was going to be Father Christmas! He was still on his own at the end! X

Me too Zombie.

Same old bollocks.

They should try something different. But I suspect the target market will love it.

I haven't watched yet. I've got my bingo card ready. I'm hoping for must have product placement, cute child, breathy and annoying cover of a well known song, idealisation of childhood, a middle class home and a desperate attempt at poignancy which drifts into mawkish.

I'm going in!

twinkie. Hated last one and pathetic (successful) attempt to get people to buy a penguin toy for £70. Quite like this one in that I can't work out what they are trying to get you to buy. Thank God FIL is coming for Christmas otherwise would be feeling constant guilt trip.

Aw they get me every year, but Christmas seems to do that to me more and more as I get older.

I started thinking about people who I'd love to be able to send a present to at Christmas, but it would be easier to send something to the moon.

Yes cynical consumerism but still made me fill up.

However enough with the girly breathy versions of good songs. I love that Oasis song and now it's spoilt. They did the same with the Smiths and other songs of my youth- purloined and exploited by JL.

That's a full house Show

I think the ending was a bit rubbish. Why was he still on the moon. Don't bother inviting your lonely old grandad for christmas just send him some tat he'll be fine. Brave of JL to choose "fuck OAPs" as their christmas message.

HOUSE

Personally I think it's rather shit

I knew you lot would cheer me up!

Its fucking depressing. He's lived up there on his ow, all his life and now he gets a telescope to watch everyone else have a good time with family and friends.
It made me cry and not in a good way

I hope JL are donating their profits on related merchandise to AgeUK. Does anyone know?

Is he dead or just lives on his own some where far away? Thought he was dead at first and she was looking at him heaven, clearly I'm not with it this morning-blame the baby who kept me up all night lol

Just made me tears thinking of one of my grandparents who just died.....

Bring back the penguins!!!
