I think its very realistic to highlight that some people are lonely at Christmas, It is a bit more punchy than previous ads and make us think of unpalatable truths

i hate it

the last one was amazing but this one is so stupid.

instead of a cheesy lonely man on the moon storyline, why not find a real old person (or a bunch of them) and buy them presents and show them love/attention.

...I guess that it had a lot to live up to with the hype etc.../just taking it in it's own right though and not comparing it to the previous ones, I like it....obviously this one is focusing on the elderly but the general focus on those who are alone at Christmas, is a good one and children are great at giving those thoughts and wanting to make some gesture if they can ...

...but yes, a general.....mind you, he's probably just stepped out from his moon party to the smoking area and isn't alone at all, but just conning those humans...

Of course it's not realistic, it's a metaphor, as Cherie explained.

How many people actually watch TV adverts anyway??

Most of the stuff I watch on the commercial channels, I record first then fast forward all the ads.
