That's what I was thinking!
And his little carrot friends that were left dying beside the turkey...
Yeah my mum actually saw this ad as being scary for children. They won't want to eat mr carrot now:(
Anyone see the Tesco ad? Ruth Jones thinking to herself about not thinking about Christmas in the supermarket aisle. Saw it three times now and I'm already bored.0 -
I also saw the very.co.uk ad and it's quite sweet , the girl delivering presents and her love growing as she gives, then she wakes up to her own present and a big hug from her own little girl.
It's called get more out of giving. Sorry link won't work.

John Lewis have released their second teaser clip, so I'm expecting that advert to drop very soon. Possibly even Friday
Update: Article here stating it's due for TV premiere this Friday evening. Second advert teaser available here too.

The pair of characters are insufferable anyway in their normal ads.
Also if your clothes still "smell of bonfire" bloody wash them, aisle 9, get some detergent.
Well she is in Tesco

You beat me to it Kitten K - it's a terrible ad if you ask me.......not Christmassy at all, not even Christmas music in it
Also, I only now made the connection with the name of the carrot in the aldi ad, along with the home alone music.....at least, I think there must be a connection!0 -

I wasn't mad about the John Lewis teaser ads and although I love the dog in the full ad, he's just not in it enough. It's kinda cute but just not doing it for me I'm afraid. I do love Kevin the Carrot though 0 -
The Aldi ones are still my favourite. Like the John Lewis one but they have done better ones.
Love this one from John Lewis (2013)

Love the John Lewis ad. Our boxer used to jump on the trampoline with us.... I thought he was a once-off.
I have now come to realise that all boxer dogs are secretly plotting to jump on trampolines Lol
Great ad by John Lewis 0 -

It kinda kills the notion of Santa though.
This ad was on last year and people were saying the same thing about it ruining the idea of Santa. Paypal ended up agreeing to only show it after the watershed.

I think the John Lewis ad is nice, not as good as previous years (think the best one so far was the penguin one), but I do think people are overreacting with the dad setting up the trampoline in the garden - a little white lie could easily be made up, if kids did ask about it, not a big deal IMO.
For me, so far, the Aldi ad is epic! I love the whole Home Alone theme that goes through it - Kevin the Carrot and Home Alone theme music 0 -

Agree with all of you that I loved the ad but as a Christmas ad it just wasn't christmassy enough for me! The boxer reminded me of the boxer dog that my grandparents had when I was younger. He was such a dote and would look at you with the very same look that Buster had! 0
