Christmas in every single definition of the holiday for most countries is over now, as of yesterday (January 6th)...unless of course, you're in Ethiopia, Russia, Georgia, Ukraine, Serbia, the Republic of Macedonia or the Republic of Moldova, to which if you are: Merry Christmas! ;D
But I digress, to me January is a real slog of a month as I feel so deeply about Christmas and even the run-up to it as well and January is usually such an annoyingly bland month as a result of this so for any who feel the same way and like the weird, nerdy stuff I like...voila! This should help you feel right back to how things were 2 weeks ago. You're welcome! ;)
This comes from Channel 4's Christmas Eve 2012 airing of "The Muppet Christmas Carol" (to me, no Christmas is complete without this film!) and it also has a junction leading onto an episode of "The Simpsons" that followed. Enjoy!
CONTENTS!:
1) Just 2 seconds at the end of a promo for "Gordon's Christmas Cookalong" (Partial...obviously)
2) Channel 4 ident featuring "The Snowman and The Snowdog" ("Michael Caine, Kermit and Miss Piggy...what else could you actually want for the big day?" I'm not sure if she sounds annoyed or what... xD Ah well, really beautiful ident here!)
3) Some sort of castle, I dunno / Buzzbuzzbuzzbuzz / Kermit looks forward to Christmas while a bunny freezes to death / Channel 4 ID title card w/ "The Muppet Christmas Carol" (By the way, I recorded this through 4 HD but I will still count it as Channel 4 as its literally the same channel, just one's on HD and the other isn't.)
4) Carphone Warehouse ad
5) B&Q ad
6) TV ad for "Wonderbook: Book of Spells" video game
7) TV ad for "Playing for Keeps"
8) Armani Code ad (Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without terrible perfume ads!)
9) Dove Nourishing Body Lotions ad
10) YouView ad
11) Oakfuritureland.co.uk ad
12) Sainsbury's ad (This was a charming ad campaign.)
13) Thomson ad
14) LoveFilm Instant ad (Why do advertisers LOVE to celebrate Winter during Christmas but denounce it as the worst season ever outside of Christmas? Seems so bi-polar. Also, IMO I tried LoveFilm Instant and I think Netflix is far better so before anyone asks, there we go!)
15) TV ad for PlayStation 3 video games console (The grandad figure by the end is awesome.)
16) HP Envy X2 ad (I got a PC recently and did my best to get mine as quick as possible so I can avoid the FUDGE out of Windows 8. Jeez.)
17) Channel 4 ID sting / Promo for "The Snowman and The Snowdog" (Pleh.)
18) ... / "I suppose you enjoyed that!" / Channel 4 ID title card w/ "The Muppet Christmas Carol"
19) TV ad for "Wonderbook: Book of Spells" video game
20) Phones 4u ad (Christmas ads that are unironically funny are a great combination of two great tastes.)
21) Wickes ad
22) TV ad for "Quartet"
23) Tesco ad (I never, ever liked this ad campaign and the only reason I'm glad Christmas is over is to know this is over too. That said, the special ad they did for Christmas Day itself was sweet and very well put together. You'll see soon.)
24) TV charity ad for The Salvation Army
25) YouView ad
26) DFS ad
27) Debenhams ad
28) Promo for "The Big Fat Quiz of the Year 2012" (Watched this when it aired. It was "lobstrominous"!)
29) Merriment / Anti-Merriment / Channel 4 ID title card w/ "The Muppet Christmas Carol"
30) Chanel No. 5 ad (You're welcome. 2012's mother of all bad perfume ads.)
31) LoveFilm Instant ad
32) Harvey's ad
33) TV ad for "Ice Age 4: Continental Drift" w/ ASDA "Ice Age: A Mammoth Christmas" deal (Staggering close to the "Ice Age 4" ad that was on one of my American Hub ad uploads recently!)
34) LG Smart TV ad
35) B&Q ad
36) Pepsi Max ad (At this point, they should just call this ad campaign quits, they've beyond run out of ideas. =P)
37) Debenhams ad
38) Freeview+ ad
39) Carphone Warehouse ad
40) TV ad for "Playing for Keeps"
41) Hyundai ad ("Live Brilliant". Correct Grammar.)
42) Tesco ad
43) TV ad for PlayStation 3 video games console
44) Channel 4 ID sting w/ "The Snowman and The Snowdog" (Staring into you forever.) / Promo for "One Born Every Minute"
45) Michael Caine hates smoke machines / BIG FINALE / End credits to "The Muppet Christmas Carol" w/ announcement (And an annoying plug for a "The Snowman and the Snowdog" mobile game. Again, pleh.)
46) Channel 4 ID sting / Promo for "The Restoration Man"
47) Audi A5 ad (Erm, okay.)
48) Rimmel Match Perfection ad

50) Next ad
51) Rimmel ScandalEyes ad
52) B&Q ad

57) Promo for "The Snowman and The Snowdog"
58) Channel 4 ident (How oddly grim.)

Oh hey, guess it wasnt long until I posted again, eh?
Accidentally bumped into the source files for this and was surprised I hadnt done any uploads based on these so...hey! Its May, Corporation-Mandated Celebration of Huge IP Franchise Day was earlier this month...as good a time as any to share the continuity for the Network Premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Im aware that people have shared continuities to the original Star Wars movies specifically so I guess, high time for this stuff to be archived on the internet for the one mainline SW movie I know thats had a nice big Network Premiere on a major UK TV network...which I know isnt as impressive a thing now with stuff leaning more to streaming platforms than network TV but hey, traditions eh?
CONTENTS!:
1) Coca-Cola ad (Partial)
2) Vodafone ad
3) Webuyanycar.com ad (w/ Phillip Scofield, because of course)
4) McDonalds ad
5) Oak Furnitureland ad
6) ASDA / George.com ad
7) DFS ad (The DFS ads in these uploads also tie-in to The LEGO Movie 2, which I remember really enjoying yet no one talks about it now)
8) Harveys ad
9) Travel Republic ad
10) Ford SUV Range ad
11) Nutella ad (Maybe its because this is around an airing of an incredible Massive movie thats okay for families to watch but dont be too shocked to see belated returns of Christmassy ads that feel like theyd not be relevant by December 30th, when this aired. xD Im not complaining, myself though)
12) ITV ID Sting / Promo for Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
13) ITV Creates Promo (In case it wasnt clear, this is ITV announcing the launch of a new ident package which at the time of posting I *think* is still being rolled out. At the very least, I dont think theyve ever had ident repeats week after week so kinda ambitious...if only they paid as much care and attention to not being such an Oppressively Bland network otherwise!)
14) ITV ident / Just Eat sponsership bumper
15) Start of Star Wars: A Force Awakens / Urewelc / ITV Back Soon ID Sting / Just Eat sponsership bumper / ITV ID Sting
16) Coca-Cola ad (Full version of the ad at the start...for both Coca-Cola Classic *and* Zero Sugar! Spearheaded by the worlds most uncritical liker of a soda brand, I guess)
17) Duracell ad (Featuring...Lanky Claus? I dunno, this campaign felt weird.)
18) First Choice ad
19) Barclaycard Entertainment ad
20) ComparetheMarket ad (This ad always didnt really hit when its shown in its edited-down form like it is here, ah well)
21) Ford SUV Range ad
22) Dreams ad (Haha, what a cheesy edit down of the music)
23) DFS ad
24) FreeviewPlay ad w/ Currys PC World Smart TV promotion
25) First Choice ad
26) ITV ID Sting / Promo for Spectre / Just Eat Sponsership bumper
27) ITV Were Back ID Sting / Omninousness and Gruntinousness / ITV Back Soon ID Sting / Just Eat sponsership bumper
28) ITV ID Sting / UK TV spot for Alita: Battle Angel (A *GIGANTIC* minute-and-a-half ad thats virtually its own mini-trailer for the Robert Rodrieguez/James Cameron sci-fi cult hit. I think this movies awesome, so Id be biased with saying if this was too much or not. Definitely recommended for sci-fi action fans.)
29) Centre Parcs ad
30) SCS ad
31) Dreams ad
32) Jet2holidays ad (Oh WOW, this ad really annoyed the fudge out of me after a while. I pray they dont resurrect this campaign when its okay for them to advertise like they did again, haha)
33) Volkswagan Golf ad~
34) ITV ID Sting / Promo for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (Trans rights are human rights, screw J.K.)
35) Just Eat sponsership bumper / ITV Were Back ID Sting / More omninousnessness")
