Community Advent Calendar Day 5 - What is your favourite Christmas advert?

Tori_Scope

There are many things that come to mind when you think of Christmas TV, and Christmas adverts are probably one of them!

There are plenty of classic ads that many of us know and love, such as:

• CocaCola: Holidays are Coming
• Oxo: Family Christmas
• John Lewis: ...all of them

Plus lots of new ones, some of which have divided opinion, and others that have become instant classics:

• Aldi: Kevin the Carrot
• Sainsbury's: 1914
• Co-Op: We can all do our bit for our community 
• Sainsbury's: Part 1, part 2, and part 3

I hate picking favourites, but two Christmas adverts I remember really enjoying are:

John Lewis' The Long Wait

H&M's Come Together (directed by Wes Anderson, which is the main reason I like it!)

What is your favourite Christmas advert?

I quite like the John Lewis ones just because they tend to bring out quite a nice one each year

Yeah I tend to like them as well @66Mustang, and it's always a bit of an event when they're first released.

I love the Waitrose adverts too.  The Coca Cola one takes me back to my childhood.

I'd go with Sainsbury's 1914 advert. Based on a true event & people forgetting their differences. I know they played football, but unsure they both sang 'Silent Night,' one of my favourite carols whether sung in English or German.

This year I'm loving Amazon's 'The show must go on' Christmas ad.  Although I don't endorse some of the working practices associated with the business, this advert just gives me tingles.

I dont remember who the advert was from but I remember one of a boxer dog bouncing on a trampoline and snow was falling. (Anyone know which one I mean_

This John Lewis one @janer1967? That was a cute one!
