John Lewis has put forward a short and sweet tale of fatherhood, keeping it’s place among the reigning kings of holiday warm and fuzzies. Although we don’t envy John Lewis’ marketing team having to start in…. we assume June?
For those who prefer Love Actually over Die Hard for their seasonal watch, Waittrose has served up a Christmas rom-com. The overly-expensive British grocery chain’s ad is an homage to Notting Hill, or the real Christmas wish of dating Keira Knightly.
In a heartwarming tale that could’ve come straight out of uncle Walt’s cryogenically frozen head, Disney has released a short film about a little girl whose doodle comes to life after Santa mistakes her drawing for a holiday wish.
Disney+ is celebrating the 35th anniversary of Home Alone by bringing the fictional Little Nero’s Pizza to life, decking out LA’s Prince Street Pizza in nostalgia. Keep the change, you filthy animals.
Apple invited members of the public to design their own Christmas tree illustrations (on an ipad of course) to be projected on the side of Battersea Power Station’s 101-metre-high chimneys. One of the winners is a 7-yr-old, because there is some good in the world, who hopefully doesn’t go mad with schoolyard cred.
New Zealand’s largest greyhound adoption drive has gained unexpected celebrity backing, with The Simpsons lending Santa’s Little Helper to help rehome more than 2,000 dogs before greyhound racing is banned in 2026. Ad agency, Special, created the festive push for Greyhounds as Pets (GAP), using the iconic character to urge Kiwis to bring home a retired racer this Christmas.
Apparently, one in five Australians admit to smuggling their own condiments into restaurants. Now this was research done by a condiment company, so take that with a splash of ketchup. If you’re on the many freaks smuggling in sauces, Hellman’s has you covered with the BYO Bow, the world’s first mayonnaise-dispensing bow tie.
When we needed them most, they returned. The Muppet Show is coming back to our TV screens in February with a 50th anniversary special. A new teaser trailer revealed that the most sensational inspirational, celebrational, Muppetational reunion will air in February.
