I'm finding them annoying apart from the Sky Cinema one, it made me burst into tears (my daughter is 11,500 miles away)

I only just figured out the John Lewis one, about self sacrifice! The nightlight has apparently sold out but yes I guess it's slightly unscrupulous to scare kids into needing the light. Not a tear jerker like the penguin one but song is nice and good that the light goes off at the end so the monster can come back.

Didn't like M&S one, it's too obvious and new Paddington always creeps me out with that voice. I'd be more scared if he was under my bed.

The cuddly Moz in JL is very cute. I think that will be popular.

The JL advert gave a lump in my throat the first time I saw it, as I didn't notice that Moz came back when the light went out - I was so sad when I thought Moz had gone for good, just so his friend would sleep instead of play!  I'm such a softy  ;D  I was much happier the second time I watched it when I realised Moz hasn't gone for good.

I know quite a few people with young children and none of them are scared of Moz - they all love him!

Don't like either the JL or Waitrose ads.

I don't know if I've seen the Waitrose one.  But Kevin the Carrot is back (Aldi) - and he's got a girlfriend this year!!  ;D

If you want a laugh there are quite a few spoof John Lewis christmas videos on You Tube. I believe some students also made one using glove puppets......................hehe!

Pleased to say I haven't seen any Christmas ads yet. But I'm sure I will next week.

Thanks for the link Taz. Prefer this version to the real one even although there are no Christmas references
