Wonder whether JL will be around to release many more of these in years to come? #eyeofftheball

Beautiful.

More importantly, I now feel less guilty about the 762 mince pies I've already consumed this festive season.

I've never understood why people watch ads.

Never will.

Because in 30yrs you can look back and remember them fondly.

“Will it be mushrooms, fried onion rings, we’ll have to wait and see...”

See, you had a little smile to yourself then, didn’t you.

True, but in those days there were only 3 or 4 channels so you pretty much HAD to sit through them, or switch over to some boring news or educational programme on the BBC. Plus the fact that with no remote control, it was all far too much effort anyway. So you were stuck.

Nowadays an ad break = a flick around the channels, or a perusal of FB/Twitter on the phone or tablet. Or you Sky+ it and start watching the programme 15 minutes in so that you can fast-forward past all the dreck. Basically ANYTHING to avoid just sitting there staring at ads with the glazed, blank expression of a cow in a barn chewing cud.

Then there's the oddballs who actually go to the effort of searching these ads on YouTube specifically to watch them. And end up sitting through some ads - to watch an ad. And we wonder why this entire planet has now gone FUBAR.

2. The Snowman one
3. The one with the boxer on the trampoline
4. The bear and hare one
5. The moon one
...
58. This one

To be honest, adverts ruined the ant and dec dna thing the other day. 5 minutes adverts and 10 minutes show over an hour and a half.

We ended up recording it ( the second show) and watch3d it by winding through the ads.
