    Am going to vote for Coca-Cola. The BBC video is very good but it's not really striking me as an ad....

    Bit shocked by that turnaround TBH. Thought the JL one would be a contender!
    To this day still remember seeing it 'live' for the first time one saturday night watching TV with the Mrs and being blown away by it. Thought it was the most original christmas advert I'd seen in years.

    Anyway, the people have voted & its not to be so we move on...
