    Theres definitely better QS adverts, but I liked the fact this was one that was only used for one christmas season. They other time the graphics were used it had the magic moments song accompanying it.

    Hate using it on my phone, I cant get emojis to come up as anything other than weird characters & squiggles :D

    Any my typing (which is bad enough on a keyboard) is atrocious on a phone keypad.

    Tough one as I love both, but I'll go with Sky Cinema.
    Though I suspect it'll be well beaten... the JL one is the first of their good run of adverts,

    god so early on, and Im genuinely finding it hard to chose, love both....
    Sky cinema one just shades it, by a teeny tiny amount....
