What about the Boots one Crodo? Santa is a fat lazy white man surrounded by diverse characters.
It's a beautiful Christmas advert of our time.

I think JLP are now a few years past their peak when it comes to creating the definitive Christmas ad. They’re living off past glories and I’m still amazed the press hype this as much as they do now. The ad is fine but nowt special.
File under “LadBaby” for me.

These are a good festive advert.
I like it.
It helps that they're using one of my all time favourite songs and have kept the original singer rather than having it bastardised by a contemporary vocalist like they usually do.

9/10, would've been 10/10 if they'd had an acoustic folky cover version in the background rather than an original song.

Apparently the bastardised one is released on Christmas day. I particularly like this nugget from the blurb
‘This year the John Lewis Christmas advert features an original song rather than a cover track, and we’re offering the nation the chance to put their own stamp on it and become the ultimate cover star. So whether your style is pop, indie, country or R&B – we can’t wait to hear your take on Sonnet.’
John Lewis Christmas 2024 advert 'brings back The X Factor' with a twist
The John Lewis Christmas 2024 advert has launched an X Factor style competition to find a singer for a cover of a 90s classic song.

I thought it was 'The Drugs Don't Work' , for a moment, and was wondering how that could fit in with Christmas .

Reminds me of the film, '1408'.
