So oops, I guess because of my sleeping arrangements, you're getting TWO uploads this Christmas Eve, haha. Here's more of Channel 4's 2012 Christmas, this time *right at the very heart* of the BIG event that year, that was "The Snowman and the Snowdog".
CONTENTS!:
1) John Lewis ad (Partial. Very apt they made this the last ad before "Snowdog"'s premiere but...I'm very sure they intended that, haha)
2) Channel 4 ident
3) "Films on 4" Sponsered By bumper from Phones4U (Because apparently the two "Snowman" shorts are worthy of the "films" pedigree to Channel 4 but anything else from the SAME ANIMATION STUDIO isn't? Pfft. Also, R.I.P. Phones4U)
4) Start/End of "The Snowman and the Snowdog" (There were no ad breaks during the actual special, so everything beyond here's after. On an additional note: I felt disappointed that the ending didn't turn out how I thought because I was very ready to text my relatives with "SLUSH PUPPIE! NOOO!", but alas things worked out differently.)
4) "Films on 4" Sponsered By bumper from Phones4U
5) Channel 4 bumper promoting "The Snowman and the Snowdog" app (With impressively garbled, post-giant-premiere-event announcement!) / Channel 4 sting
6) Promo for "The Big Fat Quiz of the Year 2012"
7) Nationwide ad
8*) Tesco ad
9) B&Q ad
10) UK TV spot for "Parental Guidance" (SORRY, CITV UPLOAD FOLLOWERS)
11) Rimmel ad
12) Harveys ad
13) YouView ad (Is...this thing still around?)
14) Currys PC World ad
15) Halfords ad
16) PlayStation 3 ad (Still kinda mind-blowing how recent this still feels to me and how long ago this is actually from. The PS4 came out just a year later.)
17) Channel 4 sting / Promo for "8 Out of 10 Cats", "Peep Show" & "Friday Night Dinner"
18) Channel 4 ident (Yep, absolute BEST ident you could use after the premiere of "The Snowman and the Snowdog" and before yet another Christmas special. Good job, Channel 4, haha.)
19) Sponsered By bumper for Brother / Start of "Gadget Man: Christmas Special" (the Stephen Fry version) and...dog.

...well, you know how I said this would get uploaded before the weekends through? Well...at nearly 5am where I am as I start typing this out, I can at least say its still the weekend *somewhere* in the world, right?...RIGHT? :O
Whatever which, this is the last part of these continuity uploads for the between-Christmas-season ITV Network Premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Had to remove a Quikbooks ad because, again...the Olympics broadcasting death-gripper for Europe and tentative member of the Warner/Discovery merger Europsport (presumably) still put greasy butterfingers over the rights to the ad for...some reason?? And therefore, if it was still in this upload, itd of banned the video in almost everywhere in the world. Not a perticularly exciting ad, so I guess the loss wont be mourned, but yeah. :@.@ Eurosport, what the heck?
Rendering a version of this removing the ad was something all my editing software didnt want to deal with neither that day for some reason, so I re-downloaded a *super* sophisticated piece of software that I should properly learn later to get a version out there that retains 50fps. x) Weird. Ah well, this is finally done at least...not often I finish a set I start with these of late, haha.
Without further ado, CONTENTS!:
1) Person inaccurately frets that the wait for stuff happening will be in 2 minutes, when here comes an ad break that balloons it to several more so, oops / ITV Back Soon ID Sting / Just Eat sponsership bumper
2) ITV ID Sting / Seat ad (Definitely feels like this was an ad without a part with a product and a logo and it was put to a bidding war between a bunch of companies before Seat won. xD)
3) James Holiday Villas ad
4) Current Account Switch Guarentee uh...PIF? Ad? I actually dont know how to classify this.
5) Lidl ad
6) Harveys ad
7) Furniture Village ad
8) Vitality ad w/ Apple Watch Series 4 promotion
9) ClearScore ad (Im so sorry that this is included, at least this campaign is dead.)
10) Marcus by Goldman Sachs ad (...what the hell? Are you just storing money? WE DONT HAVE ENOUGH, FUNNEL IT TO US, WORM I...I...??!)
11) J2O Glitterberry ad
12) ITV ID Sting / Promo for Cleaning Up
13) Just Eat sponsership bumper / ITV Were Back ID Sting / Shouting Lava, Lava, Lava / And BOOM, end credits, time to wait for the sequel that was actually really good but nerds got weird on because they hate women, I guess / Just Eat sponsership bumper
14) ITV ID Sting / Yakult Light ad (Is this...? Is it?!...)
15) Tempur ad (With Serena Williams, beating out Dreams for Sport-related mattress promo by 2.5 years!)
16) M&S ad

This will be the beginning of something different Ill do now. Ill do a lot less seperate uploads of breaks in-between these shows and etch them all into one big upload each, starting with this. Which is cobbled together from breaks of a Robson Green TV movie that Ive hardly ever heard about called Rhinoceros, which was taped over for a documentary from BBC One not too long after this was aired.
Anyhoo, CONTENTS!:
1) Sunset and walking, walking and a sunset / Rhinoceros title card Anglia ITV sting
2) Mastercard ad
3) BT ad (Turns out the tapes I have seem to have a LOT more E.T.-featured BT ads than I thought. So get used to these over this month or so. ;) )
4) Special K ad
5) Woman / Womans Own magazines ad
6) Chicken Tonight Sizzle & Stir ad (YEEEES)
7) Legoland Windsor ad (How does the act of making teeth out of the skin of oranges...relate to the fun of being in...Legoland Windsor? How does that make sense? @_@ Ive been there a few times, its an awesome theme park. Best in the UK. But...WHAT?)
8) BT ad (Ahhh, the early 2Ks internet...)
9) Rhinoceros title card / Random shot of cliff / Raining with unnerving, light-hearted laughter / Rhinoceros title card / Anglia ITV sting
10) Vauxhall Agila ad
11) Walls Bacon ad (EDIT: Jesus christ, Im starting to obsess over this ad after posting it here. This has so many layers of silly in it that its insane...how ridiculously game the builders are for BACON, the comedic concequences of their bacon distractions, the managers amazing screaming at the end, the hinting that they did NO work and spent the next 8 or so hours of their shift just talking on and on over bacon before finally having some...this is incredible. Point to you, Walls. Point to you.)
12) Nokia 8210 ad
13) Calgon ad (HAH! I KNEW all these years that jingle ended with a *ting!* sound effect...oh, sweet evidence that Im not crazy!)
14) Kelloggs...I have no idea...ad?
15) Assertahome.com ad
16) Ribena Toothkind ad (Nee nee nee nee nee-nee-nee!)
17) ITV Nightly News promo w/ headlines:
- ITV has beaten the BBC for the right to record TV highlights of Premiership football games
- An air ambulance aircraft crashed in the river Mersey
- A man has been convicted for murdering Laura Cain
18) Rhinoceros title card / Bus rides up a road in a sunrise with weird opera in the background")
