** 2025 ** Hmm, after throwing the kitchen sink into their Christmas ad last year, Tesco have taken their foot off of the accelerator and given us a "Christmas grumbles" type of ad. It's OK, but nothing we haven't seen before. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=711Cq8_E0oI

** 2025 ** Crumbs - Waitrose have gone for a FOUR MINUTE Hallmark-style Christmas mini-movie... It's nice for what it is, but it's very slow-paced, and it's good to see them taking risks again. But it needs more action and more humour. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWeYKBXmCRs

I have to admit, despite this being a sequel, I think it’s my favourite Christmas Advert this year so far. The wordplay is just so charming ^^
