I thought the dad being absent was the reason for the whole 'new traditions' thing. I liked it.

Will there be Venus fly trap merchandise?

Yup. Story book and plush toys available in Waitrose.

Loved it

Such big smiles at the end

Smugandproud · 10/11/2023 00:11

It's not too mushy.

"Soppy white sad kid"

Confused

I was in a big john lewis on sunday and it was HEAVING. Like it would on Christmas Eve. They still didn’t have any of the three things in stock I went for, and no one to help either.

I do feel a bit sorry for all the Venus flytraps that will be dead by end Feb though! I hope the are sold with care instructions.

I love it.... the music not so much

the80sweregreat · 10/11/2023 06:29

The music is very jarring , but I was listening to the ad on my phone so maybe it
sounds better on the big screen.
JL are getting a new CEO next year, I hope they sort out the customer service problems they have as it sounds as if that's taken a bashing ( like everywhere else)

Eye of the beholder and all that.
I don't think Venus fly traps are ugly, I didn't think the house was ugly. The music I agree with was weird. Why is it a problem that the child was Caucasian?

I believe white people are not supposed to appear unaccompanied in TV or print now.

MrsLeonFarrell · 10/11/2023 07:21

I can't help thinking that someone at John Lewis ordered Venus fly trap plushies by mistake and the advert was just a way to sell them. I saw them in Waitrose before I saw the advert and the display was so weird without the context, with the context it comes across as a money grab.

I loved it.

Tobacco · 10/11/2023 15:07

Great music!

GonnaGetGoingReturns · 10/11/2023 15:30

I loved it! It’s cute.

What a horrible racist attitude towards a child. Wow, just wow!

mydogisthebest · 10/11/2023 22:03

I really like it and thank goodness it's not another soppy tear jerker. I don't want to cry at ads thank you

JMSA · 11/11/2023 05:58

I was a bit WTF, this doesn't make sense, but I think I need to see it again.

brogan1972 · 21/11/2023 10:46

well they've ruined Christmas now...........
