best ad of the season

I don't normally just put ads here, but I've been carefully reviewing all the seasons ads so far (watching loads of telly) and there are only 2 ads I look forward to seeing - this is one. It just perfectly captures Boots in relation to office Xmas parties. The tone is just right, all the timing is spot on, and it feels just epic enough - any bigger would be a bit ridiculous and very un-English. Great soundtrack too.

Hi mate. I've bailed out without getting that beer in for ya ;) Anyway mi casa es su casa if you're ever in the Jing. I'll be putting a special lady in touch with you if you don't mind. Got a feeling you guys should know each other.

Be well.

It really burns me they used that Ernie K Doe record. The ad better just run for a month or two so I can play the tune out again in maybe two years!
