The JL ad is pretty average, and I note you make no mention of the politically correct family in this one LT

what is the message in it, as it totally went over my head so he gets a light for his room and the monster disappears, but it was a friendly monster so why would he want it to go...confused..

I think M & S is better...Paddington

in previous years there has been a message, like the Bear and the Rabbit..don't forget your friends, the old man on the moon, don't forget your elderly relatives and it was tied in with Help the Aged, last year was Christmas is for everyone I guess! at least they tried to relay a message but this year its just here's a monster, he will sell out, oh and buy the light as well...the advert makes no sense, it would only make sense if the monster was scary disappointing, I think they think they can churn out any old trash now and the public will wet themselves over it ...well no apart from you and LT of course

This is a good review from the Independent

This year's offer is a humble experiment that, while failing to pack as much heft as previous efforts, will succeed in keeping the kids quiet for 120 seconds
