Haha, couldn't believe some of the angry comments! I think it's a brilliant ad!
"John Lewis ad clearly created by someone who lives on the twentieth floor who's never had a fox visit their garden"
"John Lewis ad reminds me of time when fox on our glass kitchen roof and I had to pay window cleaner extra" (oh, Noooo...!)
"In the uncut version of the John Lewis advert, the fox gets into next door's house and mauls a baby's face off, then kills the pet rabbit" (Let your imagination run wild why don't you?)
" Adam Wisher echoed the thoughts of city dwellers when he said the trampoline would probably be covered in fox and badger p*** " (Do you piss when you bounce?) (or was that word 'pies'?)
Bryan Roberts: " Disappointed to see that the John Lewis ad pays no heed to the risk of bovine tuberculosis posed by badgers. Disgraceful. " (Yet no worries about sitting in the doctor's surgery surrounded by coughing patients?)
The lack of Father Christmas caused outrage as people said the retailer was killing the magic. (No Black Magic at Christmas dimwit, it's a Christian festival, and - sorry - Santa isn't real!)

Loved the advert..probably their choice of animals not the best but those who attack it as they have quite clearly read too deeply into these things. Its an advert..fun..yes... OK foxes stinky. and badgers have bovine issues But dogs will roll in anything so maybe shouldn't have a dog in their either
perhaps we should just use Robots and fluffy bunnies.

Well I for one am very impressed that they were able to train the badger and foxes to jump in unison on a trampoline.

Dont forget that ALL these animals are now available to purchase from you local JL store....Very cute method of getting the kids to badger (see what I did there?) their families for toys...At least last year it was just a Penguin, now you can buy half a zoo! 2017 advert is rumoured to be held on the plains of Africa with herds of Wildebeest (all available and individually named) holding up the JL shelves...Good luckone and all.

Do you think we should contact all the fluffy bunnies that are screaming with outrage, and suggest they join CWDF. Surely they would be happy there, where everything is carefully monitored to be humour free and as distant as possible from any contentious or non fluffy bunny views of life.

I heard it was a sad christmas advert, good but not sad, unless i am not in the mood for sad touching stuff. but the idiots with dum remarks need to get a bloody life. Thry are just thekind of folk that just look for something to complain about.

Naughtyfox said ' "John Lewis ad clearly created by someone who lives on the twentieth floor who's never had a fox visit their garden"
"...
...
Shocking.
To quote Roald Dahl (sp?)
Mary Mary quite contrary How does your garden grow?
I live with my brat in a high rise flat how would I possibly know?
I have concerns about this whole fox attacking children thing - something tells me there is a dodgy dog who jumps on a child and causes injuries but the dog's "owner" doesn't want their dog put down. (dog loves children but couldn't eat a whole one)
I love conspiracy theories
