John Lewis Christmas advert 2020

Bit disappointed this year tbh. McDonald’s is my favourite - hits home as I have a tween myself and I love the TK Maxx one....

We’ve just watched Disney and Coca Cola and they’re lovely (but tear jerking and I’m not sure this year needs more sad!). Not sold on JL

Nice that they’ve used lots of different artists but I think some of the animation is slightly weird colours and style. Just not appealing. Makes me think of the 1970s but not in a good way.

@MrsKingfisher for me it’s not necessarily the shoving stuff down our throats, it just doesn’t have the sparkle for me this year just missing something.

For us it’s officially Christmas when we see the Coca Cola advert, even my DC now say it’s Christmas once it’s shown on TV have you seen this years one?

The Coca Cola one for me wins hands down. Resonates with me a lot.

Doesn’t do anything for me, Edgar is my favourite JL advert by miles.

Don't much care for the new cocoa cola one either! Maybe it's me!

I watched the alternative JL one man and his dog by mistake thinking it was JL and I'm traumatised 😭😭😭 it doesn't help that I've just got a puppy 🙈

SuperValu and woodies did it for me.

Just watched a few more - McDonald’s is still my favourite, Disney and CocaCola are lovely too as is Amazon but all 4 of those are too emotional for my current mood and make me sad rather than uplifted.

The “real life” actor ones this year all seem rubbish - asda sainsbury etc just weird and not appealing. Hoping part 2 and 3 of sainsburys will be better.

I thought the Lidl as was pure genius. Great animation the gently taking the mickey out of the whole Christmas advert thing. I loved it. Especially the stabbing of the carrot (did you notice that it had eyes and a mouth ). I wonder if they knew sainburys first as was about gravy too as they have a line about emotional gravy in there too! Brilliant.

Aww just seen the woodies one, god that's a teary one too, having teen boys they get a bad rep so was nice to see a positive side.

Still loving the mcdonalds one, think it's my favourite.

Watched the sainsbury one, hmm not really liking it at all.

I love the Lidl ad

Oh have to say love the UK lidl one, defo ripping the piss from the others, the Irish one is rubbish, all nicey.

I’ve just watched the Lidl one, it did make me chuckle...

Well that was wank

I liked it.

Just had an excited phone call from my mother asking if I recognised the tree... It was on my way home from Primary school. A bit of a local landmark (it's a massive oak in the middle of a roundabout)
