Brilliant ad.
John Lewis advert??? what country is this author from certainly not mine.
Buy Irish this Christmas support Irish business not foreign companies.
Bah Humbug to you too…
When Dunnes Stores starts making ads with cute penguins looking for love then I’ll watch them but until then we have John Lewis and Monty.
Love it!!
Not until I see the coco cola truck ad & the Kellogg’s cornflakes ad then Christmas will begin !
Tis the coke truck for me too and it used to be the Budweiser horses in the snow too lol,
Me too Catherine. Holidays are comin’. Holidays are comin’. Only Coke Cola. I will be singing it to myself all day now even though I hate Christmas. The grinch has nothing on me. Holidays are comin’.
Really lovely.
Brought a little tear to my eye at the end I must admit

Lovely stuff…but p**s off until mid December yeah? Sick of Christmas being celebrated over two months just sell as much crap as possible to the fish who take the bait.
Grinch is up early today it seems lol stop running our fuzzes for today will you ? Geez !
Na i just don’t feel like celebrating one day over two months, and being bombarded with stuff I don’t need.
Nobody made you click into the article and watch the ad though did they?? I spy a closet Christmas fan over here
I didn’t know I could just ask santana for a boyfriend!!!
Smooth
Damn you autocorrect!
At least Santana is real
Ahh lovely!
Love the John Lewis Christmas stuff
Damn it I need to man up. Always left in a blubbering mess. Great ad
It really is delightful.
quite, darling
Love that song.
Have I accidentally gone to thejournal.co.uk ?? English company decides when Christmas starts in Ireland? WAIT UNTIL SINN FÉIN HEARS ABOUT THIS.
Reminds me of Calvin and Hobbes
Exactly my though too
Looks like John Lewis accidentally bought a truck full of penguin soft toys and wanted rid of them pronto.. Good ad though.
My 5 yr old is going to ‘need’ a real penguin after seeing this..
What irresponsible parents bought their son a penguin for Christmas?
Erm…. Did you watch to the end? ;)
Try watching the whole ad!
Is it ok to buy one at Easter?
If you watch to the end you will see that the penguin is in actually the child’s father.
But he needed a p p pick me up
Superman is not real either. Sorry.
Is that de Lough?
I thought that too!
Fantastic, the warmth about this ad is heartfelt
I know Sinead, I was trying to be sarcastic :)
Scarlet for you EiRed
Ah here, today is not the day for this *sniff*
Who the f**k is John Lewis?? The Coca Cola advert tells when it’s officially Christmas.
Well that was rubbish!
Does anyone actually know who/what John Lewis is?
Jesus, who left the onions laying about?
It’s not xmas till the coke ad is on
Bring on the Starbucks red cups too!
In aid of Age action and Christmas fm
